Hello to the OpenFront.io team,
I would like to suggest the implementation of an "Admin Mode" for the creator of a private lobby. This mode would provide real-time management and customization tools, similar to cheat codes in strategy games, to create unique game scenarios and better manage matches.
Currently, it is already possible to enable options like infinite gold or troops for all players before the game starts. My suggestion is to give the host more granular powers that they can use during the game.
Proposed Features for the Admin Mode:
-Player Management:
--In-Game Kicking: The administrator should have the ability to kick any player (human or bot) at any point during the game.
--Team Switching: Allow the host to move a player from one team to another mid-game.
-Resource Control:
--Resource Modification: The administrator could adjust the amount of gold and the number of troops for any player or bot in real-time, both upwards and downwards.
--Structure Spawning: Give the host the ability to instantly place buildings (cities, ports, etc.) on a player's territory.
-Special Powers ("God Mode"):
--Temporary Invincibility: The administrator could grant an "invincibility" status to any player (including themselves). A player under this effect could not lose territory from an attack. The host could enable and disable this status at will.
--Fog of War: The ability for the host to reveal the entire map for all players, or to hide it again.
-Game Control:
--Pause Game: The administrator could pause and resume the game for all players.
--Game Speed Modification: Allow the host to speed up or slow down the game's speed in real-time.
These features would allow players to create custom scenarios, balance games on the fly, or simply have fun with endless possibilities in a private setting.
Thank you for considering this suggestion.
