Like it says in the subject.

Good idea / bad idea / other ideas.

Please discuss.

If you have an intelligent way of doing it, without promoting AFK gameplay, please do tell.

What info do you get from d-scan if you're AFK, even if it does auto-repeat? Your objection doesn't make any sense.

I had the idea a while back for the autoping button, with a couple of caveats:

  1. It switches off after one minute, because we don't want afk people lagging up the server.
  2. The auto-ping only checks every 3 or 4 seconds, so manual ping is still far more efficient.

Well the d-scan does need some tweaking. Not sure if auto scanning is one of them
