| Differing tone for OC's. | Started by: Hybernian on May 27, '25 02:44 |

Hey team, Love your work. Here's a thought. What do you think about a different tone for OC invites as I'm sure many of the player base are using phones it would serve to inform of a time sensitive thing that requires action? Just a thought. Thanks team |

In the new version, almost every action has a classification, each classification can carry a custom "theme". For example Petty pop ups can have ding4.mp3 at 80% volume, with a red pop up that has to be clicked to dismiss. Felony can have bong7.mp3 that is just a toast and doesn't require clicking, and so on. This makes notifications easy, however, one of the big problems I have is certain things should not be notified. If you suddenly find yourself unsponsored, do we notify you, if your crew got attacked, do we notify you, certain things are very iffy because if we do notifications it ends up removing the advantages for executing the feature in a short amount of time like a takedown. I have no problems with certain things, like an OC timer where you're cool down is now ready, but should you be notified while offline if someone sends you a OC invite if you've been off for 4 minutes and your browser is closed? I wouldn't mind any input on this because I kind of have done all that I can do and I was going to circle back around and finish it up as one of the last pieces before it goes live hoping to buy some time to come up with what the guidelines should really be on notifications for convenience, without being too difficult, too annoying, too expensive, or removing advantages/tactics. This is a slippery slope and honestly I don't really know the answer. Currently I have it set so that it only does notifications if you are opt in, have it enabled, the tab is open, but it ignores the notification if it is closed. In a refresh I can add in time limits for certain things like for example notify me when my cool down for wack is up regardless of situation regardless of our regardless of anything. But until then I think I have to be pretty conservative with some of the notifications. Anyway I'm rambling, but just letting you know this has been somewhat addressed by giving you the ability to give certain classifications of things different types of sounds colors and dismissal actions. |
