    Some suggestions I originally made on the ZM forum, but I'd like to see if these could be also applied here...








    Any thoughts?

    In short, no no and no, and here's why

    The problem here lies in that players themselves don't care how much damage was done to them and the direction, but only why they were killed of which a better suggestion would be to have the stats as the primary page, but then players would be like "omg who won". It's only players that actually are some brains that bother checking and anyone with enough brains knows that if it's a bullshit kill, it's 80% odds that there's no decent reason behind it. Admins on our TTT Server can see a breakdown of the damage anyways and what faction they're on making this mostly moot.

    The problem here lies in that players are too unpredictable. A traitor throws a knife, a traitor friend accidently moves in front of the knife. The traitor which threw the knife has now taken a huge karma hit (remember, karma is based off damage done in vanilla TTT) and as a result is auto-slayed next round for what was accidental. It's just not worth it.

    If they're playing badly enough to ignore the warnings of C4 and get blown up by it, they deserve to be dead. The point of it is to be subtle everywhere, having screaming voices come down out of nowhere is just counteractive to the spirit of the game.
