What happens if I'm not at my PC does my ignoring the request make it an automatic yes or no?
now that wont be fair if 1 guy is docking to, say the ISS, and the rest of them are waiting in interplanetary space, and the poor guy whos about to dock is forced to have his time warped.And all those rules can also be set in server options such as required majority for request approval.
50%, 75% etc.
On the subject of time-acceleration: your points are valid, but IMHO it doesn't make sense to have such a system "globally" for the whole server. It should be possible to have separate "rooms" in the server, where different teams can use different time-accelerations. Of course, splitting and merging these time-lines should be possible, too.
im no good at any programming, but if you split the entire place into 'rooms', what would happen when i transfer from one to another, and im at the 1st rooms time acceleration and move onto the 2nd one. how will it switch?
I described it here in numerous threads, so if you want to know more about it, just search for the term "time-bubble".
