Thread: TANKS: Fix for /duel (credit: LemiOkeaf, for his creative idea)

no that is completely out of the question because it makes too much sense.
Seriously though, sounds like a valid fix to me.
*Text send to duel launcher when duelling someone that can't attack yet
"You challenge xxx to a duel"
Text received by the guy that is challenged
"xxx challenges you to a duel"
*Text send to duel launcher when duelling someone that can already attack you
-> now : "you cannot duel xxx since he can already attack you", duelled guy doesn't receive anything
-> proposed change : "You challenge xxx to a duel", duelled guy doesn't receive anything
NO WAY TO KNOW IF SOMEONE IS COMING FOR YOU IF THE TEXT IS THE SAME !
You only need to change the message when someone duels someone that can already attack you !

Same idea. Now, does anyone here us?
Don't /sign, this is not a petition. Give it a /bump till it is acknowleged.
what would happen if you took a mission then challenged a fellow bh to a duel then went off to do your mission?
do duels get cancelled after a certain amount of time or when u move too far away from the person you're duelling?
was just wondereing if you stayed dueled with the bh and a jedi challenges you to a duel he would get a different message like "bhname is already dueling" or something?
When you /duel someone once, the chalenge is set.
When you are Chalenged: You get "XXX chalenges you to duel". If you do nothing, nothing happens. If he /duel you agin, he gets "you already chalenged XXX to a duel".
And, your idea does sound like a good work around. But not a solution. Some BHs are solo hunters. We don't all have friends to /duel with when we are hunting.
/bump for attention and DEV response.
A simple. elegant solution that would work.
That means we have got no chance of ever seeing it in Live, not unless the devs can think of a way to introduce a fewextra bugs with this fix.
Tanks? You out there? What say you.
Not a petition. Do not /sign
If you like it, /bump till we get a response. We just want to be heard.
