Feature Request: Option/Filter for muting non-ACRE clients

[RaynorD]

After recently switching to ACRE from TFR, my milsim community is really enjoying it, but is finding that the hard-coded muting of players outside the game sometimes hinders essential communication such as moderating teamspeak or coordination between in and out of game personnel. It is helpful in some ways but adding it as an addon option would be extremely helpful to us.

If the all or nothing option is too extreme, other ideas were:

• Per TS channel - We have both public and private channels where operations take place, so different behavior for each environment could reflect that.
• Per TS server group - For example allowing operators/admins to break through would allow them to moderate TS without joining the server, as is often the case in a multi-game community, or an officer trying to get the attention of ingame members for some reason.
• An ingame module or variable allowing Zeus/admin to toggle the behavior based on the desired casual vs serious atmosphere of the mission, possibly changing over time.

Thanks for your guys' great work, we can't wait to see the upcoming features.

Thanks for your suggestions. This feature of ACRE was designed in order to disturb as less as possible the people that are playing and implementing those points would imply adding quite a bit of complexity to our code. How would you handle it in-game, etc...

A workaround that you may find usefull is to enable/disable the ACRE2 plug-in. I only did that in very very rare occasions (new players joining for the first time).

Nevertheless I will have a look at what can be done on a low priority basis.
