Title: Is it possible to kick people off of custom maps?
Post by: littlepinksprite on November 06, 2011, 12:57:50 am
I would like to be able to share my maps to open them to whoever wants, but I also want to monitor that feral heart rules are being kept as well as role-playing rules for the map. Can I ban/kick people from my maps? Also, is it possible to report users that I see violating feral-heart rules in game, without going to the forums?

No, and no.

You can't kick or ban members in your maps, and there is no way to report members in game that actually functions. You have to come to the forum or no one can see your reports until the issues are fixed.

That is a big problem. Private maps become akin to inter-sea waters.

Do you have any good suggestions on how to keep an eye out to possible problems, or how to prevent them?

There's not really much you can do. Make sure you only give the map out the people you really want to have it. Once someone has the map, they could give it out to anyone they want and there isn't anything you can do about it. So don't make anything without knowing it could potentially go public against your will.

The only real way to make sure someone can't get into the map if they become an enemy would be to go into the editor and completely re-export the map under a different file name and redistribute it. Though that would only keep them out of a single instance of the map. And then wash, rinse, repeat...

There should be a way to, which would be really great to handle things easier, but there isn't, so the smartest thing to do is check who you give it to. If you don't want randomers being jerks just PM the download to friends. If it's a public map you made, there's not way to stop people from doing so because YOU made it public.

You could make a public version and a private version, if you really want both. Other than that there's pretty much nothing you can do but report... If... Possible.

i think the need to make a feature where you can kick people from our private maps >_> because at least that would give us players SOME power over the people that violate us
