| 1 | | Imho the best option would be to wait for the host reply, even if this means having to make another message to send and wait, the best would be to have the server as an agnostic proxy that only tells you if you are denied or allowed (if allowed send extra game info to join of course). That way you can have all the allow logic in the host client (hopefully implemented having c++ as the medium and the request verification handled in javascript for maximum versatility, the handle cout be defined in gui/common/ or similar place). Imagine a player from lobby make a request to join a game, you as the host could be shown in the gui as a notification that player wants to join, you could then accept or reject it, or if as the ticket says, if is a buddy automatically accept. As for the players that want to join a pre join message could be indeed be nice to have. Having a password + buddies sounds nice but then the problem that I stated at the ticket still exist, that is, you need to send the password to that person and pasting the password in the lobby chat make no sense. |
