I really didn't want to start a new thread for this but I really didn't find to much that was new about the auto balancing. (Really didn't search all that long, wanted to get back to playing)

From what I have noticed, auto balance just picks a random person for switching and then does it.

I don't really like that because it has happened to me several times after I have made about two or three caps. I do like to play for fun but I also play to win and I don't like it when I "give" three caps to my now enemy team.

I am suggesting that the auto balancer only pick people that have no caps (people who just joined, could also be bad players which is bad to stack them). I know there can be trouble to this (one team to powerful) and I realise that there may have to be some kind of formula to break-up the "untouchables".

I would also like a message that comes up and says "You have be switched to the X team" or something like that.

There may be more in works than I know about so if there is a current reasoning to how it works please tell me.

Hope it doesn't sound like I am complaining too much I just though that this would be a good improvement.

Other than this I have to say I love this game, it is so much fun. I used to love Halo 3 and now I don't even look in Halo's direction when I have a choice between Nexuiz and it. (That is saying something because all I used to do is play Halo)

Thanks

Ahh one of these threads again.

Thanks for the prompt reply. I understand why and how it works now. I also understand that there are better ways to do this (one of the post said this) but no one will step up and code a better way. I can understand that and in the grand scheme of things it isn't all that important, if I could code (at that level) I would help out but I am not good enough to fix something like that.

Sorry for being another one of those threads.

Thanks and have a great uhh night ,

truth be told, internally the project management of Nexuiz has been improving and we may see things like these requests getting more attention in the near future. I didn't mean to discourage you ;o)

That's fine you didn't discourage me, I just understand how development on free software goes.

Besides I would rather have a fun playing (like it is now) Nexuiz than a "Has every feature that everyone wants but is still in Beta stage Nexuiz"

Thanks for the reply and keep up the great work
