Being able to mute Speakers
« on: 05 11, 2013, 05:02:18 pm »
My suggestion: Being able to mute Speakers.
                             A option could be to be able to click the Speaker
  (When pressed X button)
                            which opens a panel with a button to mute/un-mute that speaker.
 




Feel free to discuss and give your opinion! :D

The problem with that is, when you are listening to radio/mplayer, and you mute the MTA Sound, you will mute the radio/mplayer too.

Like this suggestion. There should be an option to mute them for you, it also cause lag in crowded areas. Maybe just an option in settings with:
Ignore speakers

Upvoted! First of all, music streams can cause lags for the people with slower internet connection. I occasionally play running around with guns when there is suddenly a party with intense music streaming, which caused high ping and "fighting disabled", or even kicked from the server. It's pretty annoying in term of gameplay.

It's annoying too when the speaker plays some kind of trashy music which you don't like that could also burn your ears; that situation is when turning off of it is mandatory.  :D

This situation is some what like "Admin held" events. Not everyone wants to participate or see them in their chats so we have an option to disable them. Doesn't mean we don't hate events completely. Perhaps for a given time.

Same's the case with speakers. Maybe we don't want streams causing us to time out or for some people they might be hearing to their own tunes and get disturbed when they find speakers blazing suddenly.

Although I personally think a new GUI isn't really needed. Just a command in /settings would be quite enough.

Added a setting to disable them.
