Please add server variable to allow/prohibit having aircraft systems on other screens

[D4n]

So that a multiplayer server administrator can prohibit a client having a system on another screen (also for 3rd party software), as that gives an extreme advantage over users with just 1 screen/VR (users with more screens can currently move any system to any screen and thus for example read their RWR way faster and easier and other systems like TGP etc too.)

 

(Maybe boolean would do it, for example AllowClientMultiScreen true=allow other screens, false=prohibit clients from using more than 1 screen)

why don't we just add a variable to not allow anything over 640x480 resolution as people with bigger screens have an advantage....let it go man

lols , good answer :thumbup:

[Parkbank]

Yeah screw those people that build sim pits and have MFDs for their TGPs, RWR or radar screen.

Can’t state how much I disagree with OP

why, real aircraft afaik have higher than 640x480 res per MFD... But being able to resize RWR-window-size to 2x the size of the ingame RWR size on a 2nd screen is just a huge advantage and cheating, really...

e on a 2nd screen is just a huge advantage and cheating, really...

its called Pitbuilding for a FlightSIMULATOR. a past time many of us enjoy.

 

do i realy have to go back to my idea of "make sure the player isnt using a wrong stick for a particular plane".

i mean its as "strange" as your idea, but hell using a Thrustmaster WH to fly a av8 or Mirage gives you an extreme advanatge!!!

ohohoho also TRACKIR, so much cheating...

So Looking down at an RWR in VR takes longer than Looking down at an RWR on another screen in real life?

 

 

I'm sorry but I fail to see the disadvantage, nor the merit in removing a users ability to have multiple screens.

 

Thus limiting user to a single screen/FoV, while you have the ability to look around in VR unrestricted.

No. Just, no.

 

Yeah. Just, no.

 

OR

 

It should disable VR too as you have a better feel for distance and speed than monitor/TIR users.

I have been thinking about that too. Checking your six and looking at the instruments at the same time is pure cheating. It's simply not realistic. That alone stopped me from doing it myself.

But it doesn't bother me as long as I'm not playing MP and I don't know how much of an advantage it is. Strongly dependable on an aircraft and system displayed.

Server Admins have ability to restrict exported data already, however they will not have ability to restrict a user's monitor setup (Main Views (Top Left Right Front Bottom Back), and Viewports (LMPCD, RMPCD, ABRIS, RWR, TEWS, Digital Clock Etc))
