    In the update there will be a new thing adding a killfeed, on the test server it was in chat but my idea is to put it somewhere where the scoreboard goes (on the right of the screen) just so chat doesn't get spammed.

    If it were to go on the scoreboard, you wouldn't be able to easily scroll up and see your kills. Also, you can disable the killfeed, via /war killfeed. It would be nice to have a custom (and optional) client, that when detected, puts your killfeed on the other side of the screen, but that's how it will be. Plus it would be hard to place the killfeed on the scoreboard, with all your other stats.

    The MC-War client was mostly for the gun selection which was eliminated by the gun menu. Currently, no one is working on it :L
    Would be really nice if someone continued it.
    It displays the kills in a separate chat, in shooter games. Take Battlefield.

    That's an example. It just shows the kills in chat and who killed who, as well as whether they killed with a weapon or knife.

    Alright, so you messed up the quote, which means I can't properly quote you. Whatever.
    @Rocky3c and @maxpowa worked together on a client, but due to 1.7 and just being stuck somewhere, never continued it. I don't know about MC-War clients now, but I'm hoping I can learn to code something so that I can make a client.

    OHHHHHHHH

    That's what that's called!
    I get it. It all makes sense now.
    Wouldn't that thing be full of spam tho? As said before, I mean, think about it. 70 players max on a server. Would it cause lag?

    I would like it, if the server capacity was lowered.

    I think it's fine in the update, having it in the scoreboard would be self damaging for the kill feed

    You can disable it via /war killfeed.

    If you go to a server that isn't server 1, then there'll be less chat spam. But that's how it works, we can't move it to a new chat box without mods.

    This. Having the kill dead in your scoreboard would interfere with your stats. I'd rather have my stats there rather than the kill feed. Plus, if it spams your chat, as Brawler said, I can be disabled with /killfeed.
