Keep in mind I'm suggesting to have it not display on logging into a server. Not removing it entirely.

So things like mandatory update packages (barely anyone uses these anyway) should still bring up the Download Window.

is there no way to just destroy or overload the UI by script?

I'm not sure what the GUI name actually is, but if you have upload a sound file you haven't downloaded to your client and then play the sound file, it will open the download UI

I assume it uses the same one in either case

You could (destroy it) but there's still the time between logging in and your scripts initializing, that it'll be visible for.

It's DownloadProgress_Window btw.

I found that and DownloadProgress_GameFade

it seems that the gamefade is just a regular GUI control with a black transparency or something that the window is seated in so that it can use the pushdialog(GameFade) and keep the window centered

tbh I think that's probably more annoying than the window itself, the fact that it steals focus and is centered

Please keep that window (ban-hammer), it's helping for new players on first login.

Well it's annoying on second login, for new and old players. Make an option so we can disable it 'appearing on login' at least.

dunno if this can really be changed in time but on servers using default hit detection, players that are hit abruptly stop at the edge of swimming tiles if they are crossing walkable land, and sometimes this causes the player to not actually enter the water

would also like to see an event get thrown for players entering water since checking to see if their ani is swim or something is virtually the only way to accurately check and even then it doesn't always register in a .05 timeout

Something I really, REALLY want V6 to have is tilelayers that draw OVER the player..

Feature Request:

For the people who still use noplayerkilling() to designate a level as no-pk, could a function like playerkilling() be added to change it back to a pk level?

Making it writable on client-side would also be cool as well. I.e: nopkzone = false;
