(Sugg) Ping meter by Sevoo December 29, 2014 at 4:12 PM UTC

As most of you know I'm a ping god (14ms wattttt) and I don't like to show my skills through ping. So what I'm suggesting is we get a command depending on your ping to limit it. For example.

/ping-14 ms

/ping limit 100 ms

You can do /ping to yourself and to other players. To reset your true ping do /ping normal. Take note that this does NOT mean you can get 10 ms if your usual is 400 ms.

Not possible.

Spoookeh December 29, 2014 at 4:12 PM UTC

Well that ends that... xD

kycrafft December 29, 2014 at 5:12 PM UTC

I don't think it works like that..

OriginaI December 29, 2014 at 5:12 PM UTC

Cool idea but I'm pretty sure it cant be done :(

_Phyre December 29, 2014 at 5:12 PM UTC

If you have good connection, you have good connection, If you dont, you dont.. This wont work at all..

AtditC December 29, 2014 at 6:12 PM UTC

It is possible.

Sevoo December 29, 2014 at 8:12 PM UTC

I would like it still. I don't like to be a ping god all the time...

That's not possible. It's your internet and location to host.

AtditC December 29, 2014 at 9:12 PM UTC

That's not possible. It's your internet and location to host.
But you can limit your internet speed.

ViceTechnicolour December 29, 2014 at 9:12 PM UTC

But you can limit your internet speed.
Avicus can't do that for you.

_Phyre December 29, 2014 at 10:12 PM UTC

But you can limit your internet speed.
If you're like tino who has google fiber, thats not possible.

_Stormz December 29, 2014 at 11:12 PM UTC

This is cannot be done. It is a nice concept to have, though.

Sevoo December 30, 2014 at 2:12 AM UTC

That's a shame. I would really like to learn how to PvP with 200 ms it would make me a lot better

Beat idea since bringing back kit archer!

To everyone saying this is impossible, well... It isn't.
This could be achieved by denying packets with something like ProtocolLib.

So lets say you have a 10 ms ping. If you wanted an 100 ms ping then the server could deny all the packets. It would then have to remember the denied packets (In an ArrayList) to re-call them after the additional 90 ms delay so you don't lose any vital actions from the player (Like attacking, chatting etc). This would appear to everyone else that you are lagging.

It would be rather draining on the server and rather inaccurate, but it would work.

/ping on avicus is not working
and my ping is OP Ping = 5

AtditC December 30, 2014 at 1:12 PM UTC

It is... You can *lol google fiber* limit your network card's speed.

You are right, but it would be working with limiting your own speed? Won't it???

I'm sorry, but I am probably the only person who doesn't get what ping is. So, what does ping mean?

Zedther December 30, 2014 at 3:12 PM UTC

Can you show a bit of modesty in your OP..

finleyhau1 December 30, 2014 at 4:12 PM UTC

Lel what's ping ???? - Jess

Porkyyy December 30, 2014 at 5:12 PM UTC

It's not possible to give part of your ping to other players.

Cryomancies December 30, 2014 at 5:12 PM UTC

Ping is a word used for how good/bad your connection is.
What it does is ping comes in milliseconds (ms) and let's say your ping is 30 ms it takes 30 milliseconds to register anything you do in the server. 30 ms is 0.03 seconds so it only takes that amount of time to register let's say a hit you get on a player on nexus.

Or you can just go to your server page on your MC application and, put your mouse over the server you want to join and it will tell you right there.
