Is there a way to Delay Poll from being accept?

[Arthur453]

Hi all,

In my mod we have problems with pollings. People always poll alot and it never ends. Normally it takes 1 minute for the poll to become accepted or rejected. is there a way to extend this to make it 5 minutes intead? So people can poll every 5 minutes instead of 1? this is a biggest issue so far anyone would like to help?

You must have the source code, so you can try changing the first number in the mission template trigger named multiplayer_server_check_polls.

I do have a source code, you mean this?

multiplayer_server_check_polls = (
  1, 5, 0,

there are many trigger named server check polls, which one do i need to change?

multiplayer_server_check_polls = (
  1, 5, 0,

Yes. Change the 1 to 5.

The trigger names in mission templates fire the trigger with that name in the common section of the file, so just change the latter.

hey, i change it to like this:

multiplayer_server_check_polls = (
  3, 5, 0,
  [
    (multiplayer_is_server),
    (eq, "$g_multiplayer_poll_running", 1),
    (eq, "$g_multiplayer_poll_ended", 0),
    (store_mission_timer_a, ":mission_timer"),
    (store_add, ":total_votes", "$g_multiplayer_poll_no_count", "$g_multiplayer_poll_yes_count"),
    (this_or_next|eq, ":total_votes", "$g_multiplayer_poll_num_sent"),
    (gt, ":mission_timer", "$g_multiplayer_poll_end_time"),
    (call_script, "script_cf_multiplayer_evaluate_poll"),
    ],

for some reason poll still ends with 1 minute. what have i done wrong?

Then replace the 60 on the line (store_add, "$g_multiplayer_poll_end_time", ":mission_timer", 60), in module_scripts with 300.
