Game Finder / Join a Game Checkboxes to Enter Game

[Ishiro]

I looked around and didn't see this suggestion...

I'd like to be able to Join a Game from the search results screen. Its nice that I can search for games awaiting players, but then I have to make note of the game number and go find it on the Join list.

[f1sh3r]

i think everyone would like that

Ah... I see it now.. not in the pending group, but unclassified.

It would make it easier to find the games that you would like to join on the gamefinder if it were checkboxes instead of buttons, so u could just check all the types of games u would like to join instead of just one...especially since conquer club seems to be getting more and more popular theres a whole lot more games to join and i know that would make it much easier for me...but anyway keep up the good work this game is awesome and keeps on getting better and better every time you change it a little.

Instead of there being bullet point things which only let you choose one option in the game finder, there should be tick boxes which lets u choose multiple options. This is needed now more than ever because you can enter games from the game finder results. If this gets this up the 'Join A Game' tab would become redundant.

I know you could just use the Game Sorter, but that doesnt allow you to choose specific maps and sometimes doesnt work.

Priority: The earlier the better, doesnt seem that hard to implement (Im guessing, dont know a thing about programming and such)

PS. Andy and Twill, I think i know why ppl post the same idea so many times, the to-do list is huge (probably because so many people make so many not very intelligent ideas). Dont think this has been suggested before though.

hi

I suggest to change the radio boxes in the search option to check boxes. It would be possible to define the search more precisely. In the moment you can just select one option or all. If there would be check boxes, then you can choose multiple points and make searches more effective.

What do you think?

Very good idea. I suggested it a while back but it got ignored, hopefully Lack will implement it this time.

Priority: 5 (if thats the highest)

gavin, you should be more informed before you speak.

Game Finder - Tick Boxes...is on the To-Do list.

[ADAM TJ]

in the game finder section, it is currently a dot selection i.e. set to "this". i suggest that it should be changed to a box type system, where you check off the criteria you want from each category.... like.....


i want a list of games that:
- waiting for players
-have 2 or 3 or 4 player slots
- is played on classical, or world 2.0 or Brazil or africa maps
-is standard or terminator style
- ect.....

where as right now the choices are limited to
anything within a category or a single type per category


or maybe im alone in using the game find as the main way i search to join games.

anywase thats my idea....

[gavin_sidhu]

I suggested that a while back, can't remember what happened, like the idea.

[sully800]

A very good suggestion!

Already on the to-do list. Please search it next time.
Game Finder - Tick Boxes *To-Do*

[Cervantes]

Hi;
I'd like to suggest some changes to the Game Finder, to make it easier to use. Instead of having radio buttons (select one only), I'd like to have checkboxes, so you can select a range of options.

For instance, I like to play games up to 4 players, Terminator or Standard, with no cards or flat. Right now I have to scroll through pretty much the whole list of games (or do multiple searches) in order to see if there are any games I would want in on, but if the Game Finder were changed to allow multiple selections, it'd be more user-friendly. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Thoughts?

It would be great if we could select more than one maps in game finder, but not all maps. The same goes with all the other options as well (maybe want to search for Standard and Terminator games but not Doubles).

How about using a tick-box instead of one-option buttons

what do everyone think?

great idea,

[LewisJB3]

good idea, but I don't think it's neccisary at this time and that we probrably have more pressing up dates at this the time.

Tick boxes are already on the to-do list at the top of the forum

You are right! My bad

Hiya,

I think that the options in searching for games should be changed from "select dots" to "check boxes."
This slightly cosmetic change would also allow us to search for more than one type of game, while still excluding others.
For example: Someone may want to play Classic, middle east, or Earth 2.0, but they don't want to dig through all the others, and it would be quicker to lump them into one search.
Or, what inspired this:
I was doing a search, and I don't care which game type it is as long as it's not doubles or tripples. But I cannot search for the rest without including them.
