Random player order

Post by BrotherWolf »

Just a simple request, any chance of adding an option to randomise the player order when a game starts? I'm playing in a few tournaments where the same people are playing 4 or 5 different maps at the same time. As a result all the maps are played with everyone in the same order because everyone tends to join as soon as they get notification of the game number.

I doubt this will make the list of top 10 things to improve CC but would be nice.

Neither is assassin. Doubles. Freestyle. Nothing is really necessary.

As an option, this would be a cool and fun idea. Make the game more based on luck of who gets to go sooner. I like.

The way I thought about it, was that it was based on a turn to turn basis. So, first turn could be player 1, 2, than 3, and turn 2 could be 3, 1, than 2. It'd be CrAzY fun

that completlely ruins the strategy of the sequential game... you might as well play freestyle.

i think the original poster's meaning was that he didn't want to have everyone join the game in the same order which might be caused by certain players getting on earlier than others or tournament organizers sending games in batches or something, but its just as much luck seeing when you join a game right?

Ok, so modify the game initialisation to randomise the player order to something other than the join order prior to the game starting, problem solved, assuming there was one in the first place. :)
