so what's the point of this, exactly? Google Translate wasn't the best.

An automatic AFK indicator is <undefined> times better than this.

The value is undefined since this is completely useless and therefore created a division by zero.

!!! NO !!!

That was my Immediate Response when I saw the Topic Heading.

Having read the Suggestion Posting, the following is my additional response.

I am often AFK during the Battleroom Phase.  There usually is time for me to get something to eat & drink; or, deal with my dogs & cat; or, some other activity.

It is my fault that I am AFK when the Battleroom Start Phase begins; and, I can Reposition My Ship after the Team Split; and, when I am AFK at the time of the Actual Battle Scenario Start.

The only Player who should have the AFK Feature that you suggest is the Battleroom Master.

In an Older Topic Thread, I mentioned the following Battleroom Master Option.

If the Battleroom Master [EXIT] The Battleroom; then, before leaving, the Battleroom Master has the Option Of Returning as the Battleroom Master; or, returning as a Regular Player.

With your AFK Feature, the battle won't Start until the Battleroom Master returns; and, this feature will kill the 10 Minute Auto-Kill of the Battleroom.

The thing is after waiting 10 Minutes for a battle to start, Players are no longer interested in playing that Battleroom Scenario.

Which goes back to my original response.

So wait... Why isn't this idea just for hosts so it can then make the autostart go faster or something?... 

Also, for the love of batman can we get it so the autostart takes an extra 30 seconds if there's an odd number of cvs/bbs?

Great, you'd know if someone is afk or not. Does not solve the issue with afk people in battles wasting slots in a room. Unless youre suggesting we can actively boot these people. In which case it would cause more problems than fix them.

Big no.

No because if you are in a waiting room, you should not be AFK anyway. If you want to be AFK, sit in the harbor or the tile screen. This will only encourage AFKing.

Also, if I am running to grab a glass of water, why should I let the world know, and give possible give the host grounds to ban me? My friends will not miss me in the time it takes to go grab something, especially if we are in the waiting room.
