Put who killed who in RPT

I understand why you don't want it to announce who is killing people in game, but it is really annoying as a server admin trying to figure out who is mass killing the entire server. If you were to log this information somewhere it would make it a lot easier to remove these users.

I was sure that murders do appear in the logs. Do they not?

Mass killings don't work like that. It is basically a script, not someone actually physically harming a player. Aka the killing is done by the server's infrastructure.

As for its use in normal play, it's a big no. It would destroy situational possibilities.

Bandit groups up with others, discretely kills one of the group. Instead of eing secretive, it would show who killed who, which is not realistic in the slightest.

Which is why I said to only log it. Also some scripters teleport to people and then kill them with their gun.

see i agree that it should show who killed who as you may still meet a hacker who doesnt mass kill the server but still uses god mode, kills people with weapons, that person could then be reported either on the forums or to an admin, i dont see why its a problems and if your arguing about realism then, having "...... was killed" should also be remove then. its not like it shows where they were killed people dont gain an advantage in knowing who killed who, so i dont see why it shouldnt be implemented.
