Feature : idle message

[prozajik]

Regarding to Narga post about bot taking control while typing, i have got this idea. If there is a player of team who is idling, there should be a message visible to everyone. Something like "idle 10" but instead of switching obs it writes message about idling Sometimes in match i would appreciate because mates can be slow so i dont grab on idle. Sure you can grab its their problem but lets think fair now

Problem is, how do you tell the difference between an idle player and somebody who is active, but not moving?

mouse moving

and when is Shao in camp? he doesnt moving mouse, he just waiting

and when is Shao in camp? he doesnt moving mouse, he just waiting

so he's even forced to move? I see 2 reasons to implement this feature

fu?

I guess my point is, if it were that easy to detect idle players, why not just bump them into observer faster?  If I just check for input stopping, then every time somebody stops for a second, they'll get an icon above their head.  It's not going to be any easier for the game to tell that somebody's idle than it is for a player.  If a guy is just standing there... is he idle?

No, maybe he writes a chat message. That can be more than 10 seconds. If i would be obs then and re-join, i have to wait the whole elim time to play again.
