Hi, I've been working hard on some fun systems to make Open mode feel fresh again.
So far I've made a money system, bounties, items and quests that are live on |+| Templar Open (sponsored)
One of the complaints I get most is that my way of tracking users between sessions by using their IP is not reliable enough. This is because a good portion of my playerbase has dynamic IPs so they don't get to fully participate in my system.
My request is to have an mb2 exclusive cookie made that gets passed along with the userinfo string so I can more reliably track users between game sessions. Something like the ja_guid OpenJK provides but more ingrained into the MB2 mod. This would make my life so much easier and the gameplay experience of my players much better.
Q: Why don't you use ja_guid from OpenJK?
A: From my observations only 33-40% of my players have a ja_guid. I don't want to have to explain that you need to use OpenJK and turn ja_guid on for my systems to work.
