Teeworlds: Default sv_inactive_kick to "send to spectators"

Created on 18 Dec 2018  ·  4Comments  ·  Source: teeworlds/teeworlds

We have up to 64 slots now - far enough to make disappear the need to kick afkers.

At least make it not kick spectators, that's really annoying.

Btw. you will get kicked if you just spectate someone, without doing any input. That should be removed too imo. That is the spectators functionality at its core.

If you want to do it properly I would do it so:

  1. Players who are inactive ingame should get moved to spectators, we have enough slots due to the 64 player support (But chatting should not be counted as inactive)

  2. Then Player who are also afk in spectators should be kicked. There has to be some kind of mechanism that the the server notices when the a player is in front of his screen oder he is afk. Like if someone is chatting he should not get kicked and if someone moves his mouse he should also not get kicked

That already exists afaik, thats sv_inactivekick 1 right?

The default value for max clients and player slots is still 8.
