Improved in-game search features
This was just an idea I had, and I don't know if it is at all possible to be inputted, but here's what I was thinking.


So, we already have a feature where we can search for specific users, but I was wondering if they could add in an add-on to that feature where you could look up for a staff team.


Example:


/sa gm

"Users that are gm's that are currently in-game are showed"


I feel that it would be a major help for people searching for a market squad after getting duel scammed, gm for assistance, etc.

Supported, but it needs tweaking. Say a user is named 'Pragmatic' and you get him when you /sa gm.

Maybe a new command instead? That would reduce confusion.

And the parameters could be for every position, such as GM, MSQ, SM, etc.

For example, /fs (find staff) MSQ

Valid.

A separate command function sounds good. Separates staff search from player search. Need to add ~ to supported character or add pre-text to GM, MSquad and or SMod for searchable phrase, otherwise player usergroups in-game - to be updated/managed occasionally.

I like, "the parameters could be for every position, such as GM, MSQ, SM, etc.

Not exactly sure if it's necessary to find MSquad in-game though.

Already a process for this. Don't think looking for msquad or gm after duel scam is worth having, but "gm for assistance". There are other means of communication that should be utilized imo. Many ways to reduce likelihood of being scammed, too :/

More ideas would be nice..

What about a command to "call" a gm for assistance in a particular room ?

I know that people could call for nothing, but I think if you allow to the gm to know who called him, he could do something for the one who called him for nothing.

If you are afraid about new accounts who could spam, make the button only appears when the player reached a particular belt for example.

pretty sure you've already said why it shouldn't be a thing. i'd be willing to bet that it'll be abused more than put to good use, and contacting a staff member in any usergroup is relatively easy.

Viewing all the staff and viewing what staff are in game currently are two very different things.

I think either this or a "request staff" button (i.e. you click a button, type in a request reason, and an IRC bot transmits the room name and the request reason to a special staff channel) could potentially be useful. As better IRC/game integration is a current goal I'm personally more inclined towards the latter (Plus, it'd be a better way to prevent or at least document abuse of the feature which people have expressed concerns about).

I don't like the idea of having it for every staff position. Just make it to where you can Contact a GM, In-game is their territory anyways, so leave it to them. As for the issue a spamming it I suggest this. The refresh button on the multiplayer list has a delay before you can hit it again. Add a 5 to 10 minute delay on the "call GM for assistance" button that would be in-game. This way players can't spam the button. It would also be nice if with this button it would someone say "screw the server" and allow the sender to add a short whisper that would go to the GM even though he's in a different server. That way the GM can decide if its actually worth his/her time or not.
