General Suggestion - Global Flashlights


Ein

Recommended Posts

What are you suggesting?

Something similar to the "Third Person Flashlight: Improved" addon on the workshop, which makes flashlights visible to all clients on the server. Essentially: What you say when you turn on your flashlight is what other people will see as-well.

How would this change better the server?

It provides new implications for combat on the server, being able to see your opponents flashlight when the lights are out can allow you to prepare for those few seconds in advance. It's information that will subtly lead to people winning or losing fights because they knew their opponent was coming when they otherwise wouldn't have.

Are there any disadvantages of making this change to the server? If so, explain.

Possible performance implications, and could affect playing as an SCP

Who would this change mostly benefit?

i can already see other people's flashlights pretty well but that may be dependent on settings. adding that as an intended feature would be cool

I'm almost positive this would be lag-mania, but if not it would definitely increase immersion during a power outage. Also if possible maybe don't have the SCP flashlights show?
