Respawn Button "Confirm Suicide"

[sudden2k 14]

Hey,

today sth happened to me that almost is leading to a "must have" improvement.

i was having well equipped character living since 2 weeks.

i was sitting around near the northwest airport and got bored. so i started to optimze graphic settings. i was swapping front and back from menu settings to game screen.

and then BAM. back to the beach.

i accidently hit the "respawn" button and my char suicided. well of course it was my mistake because i clicked it. but its the very next button to "options" and regarding the time and effort some ppl put into finding gear, killing as much zombies as possible or simply just SURVIVE as long as possible should have a chance to cancel such a missclick.

being dead right away is not good. i would be very happy to see a warning like "are you sure you want to suicide and respawn yes or no" thingy.

greetings

sudden

I've seen this suggested over and over... as much as I and many others would very much so appreciate this added in, I'm not quite sure it's possible. Apparently the menu is all in Arma itself, and this just being a mod.. it can't be changed. Afaik.

I say just remove the damn thing altogether :D

[sudden2k 14]

haha true

agree. pressed "respawn" instead of "options" today.

if you hit it by accident you will make sure you dont do it next time, so no need to rename the respawn button.

Disconnect --> "Do you want to disconnect?" --> Yes --> Leaderboards --> Disconnect --> Server Screen --> Disconnect --> "Are you sure?" --> Yes --> Main Menu

Respawn --> OKAYYOUWANNASPAWNNOWOKAYHEREWEGO! --> Dead

Oh lol.

I did this last night for the exact same reason.

Wanted to change graphic options and accidentally clicked it.

wasted a whole hr running back to my body.

Was day when it happened, by the time I got there it was pitch black.

Id probably taken a lot longer to find it if it wasn't for the flies.

Having said all that, It all comes back to Arma 2 not meant for the way DayZ works.

Its probibly not able to be removed or altered.

However, if possible... It should be removed all together.

Be more careful silly! Besides, they can't fix it, it's an ARMA thing. And as people said, you aren't the only one who accidentally does this and immediately goes to the forums...

[Rezarf 2]

I've done it twice and I can gaurantee i'll do it again. Its a pain in the arse.

[sudden2k 14]

yes i guessed it was an arma thing and dayz might not be able to change it. but they could at least advise it to the arma dev team or ?

[KEEPCARLM 146]

I imagine ARMA devs could do something about this, it would just be an afternoon job for one of the employee's I'm sure, with the amount of extra profit dayz has brought them, I'm sure they would consider making a little fix for dayz? If not then lol.

word!
