Could someone please explain to me how it work? I was trading then someone just kill few mobs so i lost my map, i dont get it. thanks for answer.
You need to attack a mob every 2-3 minutes to count as "active" and remain the mapowner, I think at least. Personally I am not a big fan of this command really. Often when I brb for a short moment to go to the bathroom I will have people trying to steal my map just cause I am hanging on the rope. Common courtesy and asking if the map is free doesn't exist on this server. Instead this map-sniping behaviour is indirectly encouraged.
I agree. I think a new method should be implemented. I find myself needing to take short breaks from training, and feel as if I cannot due to this.
I don't see how this is at all unfair. You only need to attack once every three minutes to retain the map and it's abused enough as it is. I think we've all felt frustration at one point over that one guy at skeles who only attacks when he sees you and then hops back on the rope again.
~mapowner system is not perfect but it's 100x better than nothing. If you recall GMS, people would steal your map 2 seconds after you leave. Actually, people would KS you even if you were there and actively training. 3 minutes seems to be enough. If you're gonna afk for more than that, you really should be letting other people use it, especially in popular maps like skeles.
There's times where I spend an easy 20-30 minutes AFKing in a Skele map and return to a free map... Or I'm at Skeles at times where there's not many people around.
The current method is fine. It's great so you're not constantly hogging the map too. Our human needs is what keeps map owning balanced.
