[Suggestion] Actions to change team, allow/disallow voice chat, and allow/disallow text chat

Workshop Discussion
1

First of all, huge props to the workshop team. The workshop has come so far and is such a powerful tool, and I’m so excited to see it get better and better.

I have some great game modes in mind to build out that require more secrecy in the game. For example, there are modes like Town of Salem that other people have created that have secret roles in them.

However, people can easily ruin the game by calling out who the mafia are. This can be easily prevented by having actions in game to mute players in voice chat once they die, or switch them to another team now that we have lopsided teams.

Just wanted to throw out the suggestion for these as they could be super powerful tools! Especially if you could toggle whether the players could talk or hear voice chat separately. That way people can still be able to spectate even if they can’t talk.

Thanks for reading!

In the PTR, you can disable text chat, and you can even disable all the HUDs, your 2 first suggestions are already suggested though so we could wait for that.

If you’re talking about Disable Messages, that doesn’t actually disable text chat.

4

wait really?, I joined a mode in the PTR where it disabled the text chat completely? like I couldnt see anything on my screen but my gun on my hero, and some hud texts, are you really sure?

Well I can’t replicate it, even if I use every new HUD-hiding action, I can’t manage to hide the chat (unless I use /hidechat).

Also, Disable Messages allows you to hide stuff like the big STUNNED message or small fire points messages.
