Tweaking Profile Information

    As I voyaged through the other Forums of the Internet, I noticed that some actually tell you:

     

    • If a player is active or not - Will help you pin-point when to contact them.
    • If they are active, what are they doing currently - Where to contact them.
    • When last they were active - To estimate the possibility of their activity.

     

    For now, players have to put an Offline/Online sign in their saves, and this is irritating as they have to open TPT, go to that particular save and change it. What if they don't have time? Someone will think they're active when they were actually dormant for years!

     

    The features above should solve that problem. But of course, Simon isn't here for now, so we might want to add it to our To-do list.

    I'll likely add this feature to TPTNet this weekend. I have a simple rig for figuring out online/activity status. The status might be something generic such as "Active - In game X minutes ago" or "Active - Website X minutes ago". Perhaps add a "Stealth" mode to prevent sort of stalkish people.

     

    Give me some feedback on this and I'll go forward with the integration ASAP

     

    EDIT: I just realized the profiles on TPTNet aren't up yet. So this feature would arived when profiles are released.

     Maybe. But like Lockheedmartin said the profiles need to be up and perhaps we could add a stealth mode. In other words, block people.

    When will the profiles be released anyway?

    Pretty sure it's never going to be added simply because the only one who can do such things is never active.
