By tickers I mean the things that scroll through gametype rules/players/"Manual Update Required" etc in slow motion. Would you care if they went away?
I read the gametype/players thing but as the MoTD thing hasn't been updated since before I even started playing CE, I don't give it a glance.
I don't need them but it's a p useful feature that I'd rather not see dropped for someroject:
Timo, what you up to???![]()
The problem is that there's no reference to anything in the widgets that control both tickers other than what font they use. So they can't be replaced by any alternative. So if one part goes, it all does (Players appears over the MOTD when you select a server).
Procrastinating because of the amount of assignments and tests I have next week.
I'd prefer it if at least the gametype information stayed. What I like is that it shows the name of the custom gametypes being used, and people often name them things like "snipers-ns" which you would have to join to find out otherwise. I also switch to 1.00 when 1.09 is slow, but there's a lot of rockets servers there that I avoid and you can't tell without reading the tickers. The list of players isn't as important but I can think of times it has been useful.
