[Added]Add ping to /intel

(1/4) > >>

YoMama:
I often find myself checking /intel, then checking the tab screen to get his ping so I can more accurately lead aim when DBing him or chasing him with a Rustler. It would be nice if /intel just showed his ping already.

It would also be nice to show who is driving the President, if he's not driving himself, and that person's ping.

Konata Izumi:
Why you need pings in that xD

Because DBing, shooting from Rustlers and Hydras, throwing grenades, etc. are not lagcomped, so you have to aim to where your target is in their game. You might be able to hit someone once in a while if you're chasing right behind them if their ping is 100 or so, but if their ping is closer to 400, you have to aim much farther ahead (so if you're chasing them in a straightaway, you might have to drive a car length or more ahead of where they are in your game to hit them in theirs). I wrote more on this in my flying guide here.

Adding the President's ping to /intel is just a convenience that would likely require very minimal coding. Adding his driver and/or their ping (when applicable) is something that is actually needed. It's often difficult to tell who is driving unless you get right up close to the vehicle, at which point you have to remember the name and find it in the tab screen to figure out how much to lead aim.

Deadman:
Intresting. ::)
I don't see a problem so I am ok with that.
