bobi124 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Most horn spam is on C-D road when someone hit you and start to honk at you Good idea, +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Seems like a pretty good idea to me. Just auto kick them after 5 seconds or so. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 +1 Would be very helpful. But they could also do that: Kick players who have more than (e.g. 4) horns on the truck will be automatically kicked from the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enex SLOVENIA Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 First we need to establish what is annoying/bannable worth offence of spamming horns. Where is the point where productive use of honking turns into annoyance How to prevent that, and how to encourage correct use of honking. So first question would be holding key for more then 4seconds. Take example from real life. I have never had example in my 6 years of driving where someone would honk at someone for more than 4 seconds (if you have I feel like this is nearing to road rage levels). So this is the game obviously we are online with no repercussions (compared to real life)so wicked use that because they can and know they won't be punished. Second question would be dealing with spam. First of all anyone banned should lose ability to honk. While its bad that they can't use it to warn in case they use as civilized people would (short honks) it creates small incentive where they would not want to lose that ability so they might not break rules as often as they would like. Forward: When horn key/air horn/screamer is held for more than 4 seconds you get red message. "Spamming horns for more then 4 seconds is bannable offence". Now this sets the tone: It tells you for how long is legal to use it, and that it breaks the rule. Before going into "kicking from server territory", I would like to see 3 month test of revised rule about honking. Right now and correct me if I'm wrong spamming honking doesn't seem bannable offence. Rules tells that is not allowed to spam horn in cities but I have never actually seen rule enforced in a report (website reports) So revise the rules to spamming horns is bannable offence for this set amount of time, everywhere and let GM enforce this rules whether in reports or in game. If this doesn't work then I would consider kicking from the server option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drakomis Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Next thing you know, when you toot your horn to greet someone on the highway you'll be banned for a week. Go figure. I've got to disagree. This wouldn't be necessary if the reporting system wasn't dependant - in my opinion - on outside sources. I have a pet peeve with being told to use third-party software to validate a claim that could easily be justified by utilizing the apparent in-game resources, such as in the case of reported events being recorded by the game. Regardless of that, adding an automatic ban function of a typically benign gesture would not serve any other purpose than to further isolate those in the community who only wish to be friendly and courteous on the road. I think this sets a dangerous precedent that would enable further suggestions to crush and oppose attempts by members of the community to retain privileges that enable them further immersion, such as a complaint against overuse of headlights for example.

enex SLOVENIA Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Correct me if I'm wrong but friendly and courteous people don't hold down toot horn for more then few seconds (say 4). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felix99 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Got to agree with most of the posts. The option to turn of horns is available if needed. Also the DEV would have more time to concentrate on important stuff for updates for example Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbaroshayretin Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I think the same things about horn and warning lights chat spam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdaBey Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I like the idea. For example, someone who spends 15 seconds on a horn spam can kick. The bad side: The player can spam 14 seconds and start again.

[TPH] +theo+ Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 but how would the game detect a horn spam? By how long they are pressing or by the total time they are pressing? Because if you say horn spam it could be continual or spamming one at a time. This could be interesting as I see people spamming their horn so many times.

Loghaire Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 -1 useless. Just turn off horn sound and reverse sound from tmp settings if horns bother you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christianbro Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 +1 Either this or a hotkey to mute horns should be neccesary. In real life you are only supposed to horn in special situations, and you barely hear them. In the game you hear them as often as the guy behind you not pleased with your acceleration when pulling something more than 10 tons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Driver-Ramon Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Yup agree some people do not even realize that they had horn spamming somebody stuck behind me that loud horns all the time he he I do not even press my horn sometimes quite stupid that you keep spamming 2x times is actually enough at all not if you are on a road where you have to give priority you just have to be patient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XioPlay Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I think that a lot of players would be kicked with this system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr'Dri Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Simply +1 good idea. But I would like that in case of not kicking, a warning like the time of the lights is shown in the chat. Showing for example 10 seconds to stop the action of the horns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 The horns needle, okay. I think automatticly won’t be really work.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixels_12345 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 (edited) -1 What if there aren't any players around for miles? And the player just wants to toot via their horn just to say Hi. I think this can be an issue on low population servers and in my opinion, a simple warning would be better than an auto kick since its just unnecessary and useless. If there's a player tooting their horn continuously, just ignore him, or reduce your volume. Simple. Why create more work for the devs when this is a very easy solution to solve? I think the devs would rather focus on other things than silly players who want to spam their horns continuously just for a laugh. Edited April 17, 2018 by VortexHauler Remove bold effect.

Flynn Dawson Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Supporting this, because it simple can be annoying. But only for these who keep pressing the horn button for 5+ seconds in a spee. Else I'm unable to horn to my friends when driving across them. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Performanze Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Yes I noticed that too. I have reportes one of them in the forum but it was declined because he would receive only a kick Regards Performanze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoneeYT Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 I can only say yes to this. There is a feature to disable the horns etc. but if you still want to hear other "normal" beeps, you can't. 15 seconds would be good enough! +1 Steam: TruckersMP: TruckyApp 1st German-Translator, Media Team and now retired Teammember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neuroh Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 I don't think we should completely kick people if they spam their air horns. Yes, it can indeed be very annoying but sometimes the horns have a practical use. Other games like Forza Horizon 3, have a limit on the amount of seconds you can hold down the horn. If TruckersMP would take that, and expand on it by only allowing a certain amount of horn spam within a minutes time, that would fix our kinda fix the problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
