Wow, you must live a perfect life of never forgetting anything at all.


In all seriousness though, It's not unnecessary, it's more convenient. As a host, you click start. Then you saw the map and like "oh crap this map is too easy/hard. I'm going to add a mod." Well now I cannot click add mod because I'm ready, and I cannot say I'm not ready because my option turned into "force start"

I can't see how it is a hassle to add one button that says "Not ready" Though peppy does hate toggles.

+1 for separating force start and ready/unready button

TIL I live a perfect life of never forgetting anything, because I don't consistently goof, and press a button to start the game when I don't want to lol. Anyways, When I say "it's more of a hassle" I mean that, because peppy would have to re do (not the entire thing obviously) the multiplayer interface to add another button. When in reality not that many people care. I'm not trying to say it's a bad idea, and I hope that it happens, but I'm just adding my two cents. Sorry for my cynicism :/

it's very annoying, to say the least.
Also, this applies to ONE person being ready, you force start the game on accident, and then suddenly however amount of people in the lobby that haven't readied up (or haven't downloaded the beatmap), either are AFK or they can't play at all.
It would be a nice convenience to have a separate ready and force start button.

i'm pretty sure that force start forces people that aren't ready to play.

This is one of the reasons why I like to see this.
Along with the beatmap changing

I agree, changing a map just to add a mod is a bit annoying, i would love to see this implemented

I think host need to ready is a real design flaw here, there is no point to host indicate readiness as he is the same person starting the game

Really good idea, as I hate it when it happens

Bump!

A good spot for the button could be in the center above and between the two buttons currently there for the host. Or just resize all buttons and put it in.

But that aside, yes, this should be implemented.

host chooses song
suddenly decides they need to leave for the bathroom
everyone presses ready
map starts without host
host comes back from bathroom to see everyone already played the map

The match only starts when host presses Start Game/Force Start, theres no Ready button for host, that is what we mean.
