| OC & timers | Started by: CookieZombie on Apr 22, '14 07:54 |

So I've been thinking for the past few days, why isn't there a shortcut for OCs in the timer bar? Excuse me if this has already been discussed, I didn't really find something among the other suggestions.
So my idea is: There is an Oc:OK button added next to the felony one, you hit it and it opens the OC page. If your OC isn't ready yet, you have a countdown similar to every other timer (like Oc: X:XX:XX). My reasoning behind this idea is that sometimes you have accepted a crime invite and want to know how much longer you have to wait for your own OC, but you can't since you are in another gang. Why should you want to know this? Maybe you want to tell your crew "Once we are done with this OC, I can run mine in 15 minutes", or perhaps you want to message the guy who invited you something like: "Thanks for the invite! I will be able to run my own OC in about 40 minutes, keep your felony open if you are still around :)" or you are just kinda stuck in an OC, the mastermind is inactive and you are wondering if you should cancel out and start gathering people for your own OC, but you don't know if your own OC is ready. And to put it simply, why not be able to see it somehow? Since the personals about OCs disappear quickly so you can't actually find out any other way, I think this addition would be helpful.
Open to discussion, would like to hear any opinion and generally feedback on this. |

i like this idea :) because yeah people go offline and i get busy and forget im in an OC like yesterday i was in one for 30 minutes and only found out because i tried to run my own OC so i checked because everyone had accepted but the mastermind had went offline for 25 minutes or so then at other times i have forgotten and been in them for an hour...which sucks because you cannot be invited to any others i mean we all forget at times no big deal but yeah i like the OC timer :) that is one thing i do is watch my timers so that will be a big help!! |

I wouldn't mind seeing this expanded slightlyy.
Not only have a countdown timer until your OC is unlocked, also have some sort of indication that you are currently involved in an OC - or - have a warning before you travel that you are currently involved in an OC which you must accept to fly. |

Hmm this sounds convenient, I think warning would be a bit too much, but some kind of indication could work. Perhaps the indication for being involved in a crime could be a different color for the OC timer. For example if you are not involved in a crime you could have the usual red/white timer, and if you are in a gang you could have an orange(or another appropriate color) OC timer regardless |
