Intro
Hi! I've been waiting ages for that Statboard idea to become a reality, but I'm not certain if the person who said they were programming it ever finished. In the meantime, here's a less-contriversial mutator request from me:
Problem
Specialist gamemode is a great addition to INF 2.9. The problem is that a good many people dislike or even HATE being the specialist, while others, like myself are dying to get a chance, because we love doing the "hide in shadows" thing. Why is this a problem? Because several times, people who are the specialist run off, die three times, use profanity and leave, wasting 11 minutes of everyone's life as the round resets. Some of the nicer people leave immediately if they are specialist so they waste less time.
Solution
I'm no coder, but would it not be possible to have a simple mutator that puts a message on screen: "Press Fire to Request Specialist Position." Then when the round starts, those who pressed fire, are put into a list and a Spec is chosen from that pool, instead of everyone. If no one votes, then it chooses randomly from the entire Attackers side, like normal.
Conclusion
Please, mighty coders, don't you think this is a worthy task?
