Kill Notification Idea

[Wrath]

So how about a kill notification for spectators and dead people to see? This would help clear alot of "I think he's rdming" or "I think he's the traitor" kinda stuff

For example

James Rossi *Uzi symbol* Some guy (or blue if he's detective)

Note this isn't for living people just the dead

Thoughts?

It'd make it too easy for ghosters.

Would result in more ghosting.

I consider it a positive that after you die you do not necessarily know who is a traitor yet, so one of the things you can do as spectator is attempting to figure that out.

Possible for high admins only? A cvar maybe.

The information is already available through console commands for gmod superadmins or through RCON.

Would be nice if that info was more easily accessible to the more "slow" admins... I've lost count of how many times I've seen traitors (including myself) get slayed or banned for "RDMing" when the round isn't over yet.

The admins that do that are probsbly to stupid to know about the command, I mean how hard is it to type "ttt_adminreport" (or whatever it is) into the console. Hell they could bind "devolper 1;ttt_adminreport;devolper 0" to a key and have it displayed on the screen. I'm pretty sure I spelled devolper wrong so don't copy and paste it.

I said something like this on a TTT server around the time you posted this. Were you on the TDR 12 slot server last week?

This is true and so is the ghosting problem that was mentioned, but how about you give just the traitors this ability? It would make one's job as a traitor easier by notifying them of deaths exactly when they happen. The traitors already know who the other traitors are and they can already see the "Missing in Action" list, so it's not like there would be anything negative.
