Title: [Brian] A little improvement in carshow
Post by: Ths on 22 09, 2020, 04:19:03 pm

 What kind of criteria your suggestion holds: Reduce inconvenience and Improve community/socialization.

Hello, I hope everyone's having a good day today.

Today, I'm going to suggest a little improvement in the car show. I came up with this kind of idea because this has happened to me. The problems in the car show will be stated below and these are:

• 1 Running out of time without noticing it
• 2 If you put the prize in the car show panel and your rent time is over but you are still not yet done to choose your winner the money will be split on all the players that are inside the car show.
• 3 after the #2 problem, when you trying to rent again the car show you can't put the prize again. here (https://i.imgur.com/d4rG5zN.png)

Explanation: About the three problems I'll explain it When the car show too many participants votings are taking our time and we didn't pay attention to the time right?  so if the hoster put the prize in the car show panel and his rent time is over the money will be split on all the players inside the car show even though you're not already chosen the winner and your money that put in the car show will useless so your going to donate again for it.

here is the video:

And here is the possible solutions:

• Enable to see remaining rent-time left. here (https://i.imgur.com/g3Wgu7r.png)

• when 5 minutes remaining left you will be notified in your screen/warning sign. here (https://i.imgur.com/0pj9iSt.png)

• There is End Carshow and Rent extra time in the marker only the hoster can see.Normal (https://i.imgur.com/rJFYLwu.png) Outcome (https://i.imgur.com/fufJbq6.png)

Explanation: Explanation in the last solution, if the car show ended within a one-hour hoster should go to marker and end the car show so other players can host so you don't need to reconnect or don't need to wait. renting extra time should be 5 - 10 minutes and you can only rent extra time only once so we can avoid trolling players.  extra time will help you to decide who's the winner without automatically end your event cause the money was in the panel.

PS: Sorry for the video its my first time to make that.

May I know your comments below and I'll reply as soon as possible.

The car show got the issues listed above which really makes everything harder. Generally when car show ends someone goes and rents it and never givesit to real host etc. etc.. With this they can be aware that they got short time or they can just delay the deadline with some money.I really liked the idea and after the new carshow update this can fully fix  all the missing parts of car show. My vote is positive. :tick:

I faced such issue before , but I was lucky when I didn't deposit the prize amount in the panel. Sending notification to the owner before the carshow ends would be so helpful as it will fix all of the issues stated above. Also I think if we added a button to the carshow panel "Increase renting time" for 5-10mins would be great instead of renting it again from outside. Positive

This has not happened to me in the past or the present, but I can feel the annoyance that this brings. The suggestion is pretty useful and it will benefit the carshow hosted by a lot .
 Nothing more to add, voting Positive :tick:

Many problems happens when the renting time is over.Also sometimes you don't notice it when the time is over and another may rent the area and troll the show.I think being able to see the time left would improve it or adding the option of extra-time can be helpful also.Positive

 This will indeed reduce inconveniences. It is surely annoying and disturbing for the host of the car show if this situation happened to them. Imagine, if they did not notice the time of the car show, which sometimes took more than an hour and forget to add another time of their rent, then the price will really be distributed without any notice. In this case, this should be implemented, or add the timer or notification at least for them to be aware if they need to extent the rent or not. I definitely agree and support this. Positive.

Firstly, this is a bad thing that you add money, and when you don’t pay attention and the time ends, the money will be taken by all the players present in the event, and this will be very bad. You have to choose a person and give him the money or rent the place again instead of all the players taking the prize.Positive

This might be an issue for those who dont know that this is an issue. There are people who would keep their money to themselves and send it later to the winner. thats obvious. The setting money should be removed if they dont have a dedicated winner or a notification on are they willing to give them the money. a Yes or No. Also the timer should be available at the carshow panel. So I think This needs to get worked on. Positive :tick:
