Limiting Users in Multiplayer Session. 12/04/2016 at 19:16 #81810
Giantray 347 posts	I have just experienced some person setting routes, destroying routes, locking points, setting incorrect routes etc in a Multiplayer Session, spoiling the enjoyment of other users. Is it possible to only have the person logged on a panel and the Host to be able to set routes on that Panel? This would stop any user watching, playing around and any other person logged on a panel interfering with other panels. Admittedly this was the first time in many years of Simsig that I have encountered this. It got rather heated and people being accused and then getting upset over a game that the majority of us play for fun. Professionalism mean nothing around a bunch of Amateur wannabees!

As the host, click Multiplayer -> Control Panel -> and set client commands to 'Log', 'Display' or 'Both'. This should allow you to identify the moron in the game and boot them.

Open the most recent one, and you should find a log of all client actions during the game- some scrolling may be required.

Hopefully we can find the guilty one and necessary action can be taken. Log in to reply

Just a note, this feature is only available in loader simulations, it isn't available in the older .exe sims.

This should allow you to identify the moron in the game and boot them. But by Booting someone it just causes problems, if the issue couldn't happen in the first instance, no one need be booted.

Don't feel bad about booting someone if they're ruining the game. Just disconnect them and don't let them back in. If they aren't going to act sensibly with someone else's panel, they're unlikely to act sensibly on there own.
