Countdown Timer
« on: October 09, 2005, 12:43:23 pm »
Hi I\'m new! =)

If you are disconnected the game implements a 30 second timer before you can reconnect, right. Why not add a simple 30 second timer?

I figure it would be implemented simply. If you click to connect and the message pops up that you have to wait 30 seconds, it than counts down and when it reaches zero it tries to connect for you.

The fact that you see somethink on he screen, doesn\'t mean it is truth^^
this 30 sec is simple estimate and most of the time you don\'t have to wait exact 30.



What you can failure tommorow, failure today.

Well... that timer is on the server, which you wouldn\'t be able to see unless you were connected...  :P  Theoretically, each denied connect could send an update on the time remaining... but it\'s just not that big of a deal.
