[Maps] Assigning random backgrounds |

The idea is quite simple. There are huge amounts of maps that don't have a background set to them, while maps usually look better with a background. My proposal is to have the game set a random background (daylight/dusk/dawn/night) to all maps that meet the following conditions: - Map should be p0 (and thus in rotation) - Map shouldn't have a background set to it by the author (in that case that background is used) Any feedback/additional suggestions are most welcome. |

"The game to set a background..." - Sorry but [Level Editor] already allows players/Mice to change the background for their levels. So this is not needed - {No Support} By the way; Random sounds stupid too. Sorry it's just my opinion. |

This is a good idea but i dislike that if you dont put a background if does this A selection for it would be a much better idea Much like vanilla maps always have random backgrounds now Apart from that /support |

Killerbot a dit : I don't think you understood. This is for people that forget to choose a background. If this happens (and no background is set for the map) I want the game to pick a background. By "randomly picking one" I mean that it chooses one of the available backgrounds. --- As for Spacewind's idea, I would prefer seeing it the other way around. By this I mean having the default on "Random", while still being able to choose "None". Obviously this should only apply for p0's as it would lead to complaints in bootcamp. |

Sorry but I'll have to /no support a lot of maps are meant to have no background |

Mousechris a dit : ^ this especially old-school maps, those were not designed with backgrounds in mind and I'm sure you'd get quite a negative reaction from the older community (btw, hi) |

I don't think anyone would want to see A GREAT BIG HUGE SUNSET In the middle of A p0 that wanted to get in racing. |

Mousechris a dit : Although I think the amount of p0 maps that would look better with a background outweighs the amount of maps that look worse, I can think of a scenario where older art/mech maps depend on the solid purple background color. Still, this wouldn't affect any map other than p0's, which hardly ever get played. Worst case they could either be p1'd or p22'd (thus no longer meeting those conditions). I honestly believe that very few p0 maps have no background on purpose. Usually people just don't know they have that option or they forget. As for maps that, for example, want to get into racing: they would need to be submitted anyway. Aren't submissions usually p22? --- It's not unlikely that even after reading this you're still against this. Would you also be against it if it only goes for newly created maps? |

Vanilla maps already do this |

Kredos a dit : Which probably means it'll be easy to do the same for p0! |
