insim suggestion Welcome message

(Yesterday 14:41)Felipe Jardim Wrote:  Good idea, but you know it would be even better if the new player was FORCED to read the rules kind of like a "user agreement" page where they would have to click 'I accept' at the bottom of each page until all rules were covered. That way there would be no surprises from the newcomer such as "I didn't know I couldn't ram other players on the wrong side of the Autobahn while using profane slurs"

Also, a message on their screens with copy-able links to the manual so they know how the insim works would help too. I find myself always walking new guys through stuff such as bussing or jobs in general or even explaining to them how things work because this insim is a bit more complex than it was 5+ years ago before the introduction of jobs and mods.


User has joined [TC]for the last time. You failed to read the rules, good bye!

true. and most race servers have a insim screen that pops up when you join and you have to click it before it goes away so you are certain to read it whenever you log on.

if chuck wants to check that out i would suggest to go to MRC or AA servers using ario or lapper.

in that screen message could be any thing really. rules links etc.

there acould actually also be a buy your first car menu. as i also see many asking how to buy their first car. all that kind of info could be in a single pop up screen when you log in.

so yeah also good suggestion Jardim
