[8.71b] afk kick ability disabled with -afkai

[richard_parker]

Player selects -afkai, after 5 mins, the player should be kickable, but is not.

Is currently wrecking many games, as a several people I could name are joining and selecting -afkai right after the start.

I can confirm this as I just had a player joining the game then going afkai after about 5min and staying afk for the rest of the game(1.20h+) totally destroying any chance of winning.

This is a quite major bug and should be addressed. Without any chance of kicking even under the circumstances that it says it should work under you're bound to get even more players grieving and ruining games then there already is.

I can add a replay if needed.

Please fix this one ASAP.

Juat had a game where an Antigrav gone afkai within first 20 minutes and he had 4-50 in the end. Nearly runined the game by feeding.

I also noticed a bug concerning the AI with Antigrav: I he wants to jump somewhere, where is no landing space, he just sits there until killed. Replay availible if needed.

Again i got the bug. someone went after about 5minutes game with demolisher and a 2nd 2k weapon afk until about 50minutes.

he ended 7:60 and feedet up the enemy team in maybe fair balanced game. Also he went the lane I was, so he got no teamplay then and keep on dying and feeding.

autoloose number 3 for me cause of -afkai is not kickable. It is a major bug and destroys liga balance 100% :cry:
And i never got a game where an ai of the enemy team got long afkai, so i am a victim of this bug.

I don't know why this hasn't been fixed yet.

I assume it would be a rather simple job to fix and the fact that it can be a real gamebreaker tells me it should be high up on the "to do list".

Update please. Already beyond annoying having to deal with this in quite a few games without being able to do anything about it.

just to up the subject!
Dont know what is the discusion in your dev team, but can you tell if it requires a lot to disable afkai from map?
because i dont see any reason for going afkai : player is here to play or just dont join a game the ai is too predictible and as for teamplay and stuff...(no comment)!
And this issue especially because we cant kick people.

[AGGInator]

they don't disable or fix something.
they rework the -kicksystem COMPLETELY..

Is it working as intended or is it being dealt with?

The current state of the league is quite horrible to say the least, very few games are at all playable. I'm however still in favor of keeping kick removed but this issue really(!) needs to be dealt with since people are abusing it far too often.

This is not considered at a fatal bug and thus not a high priority. This problem will be dealth with when the mappers had time enough to deal with it. It takes longer time since the team is focusing on Starcraft version of Battle Tanks.
