Server Suggestion Don’t kick people too quickly for being AFK

[Clarky]

Suggestion Title: Don’t kick people too quickly for being AFK
Suggestion Description: You have like two minutes to answer the AFK prompt, I think that’s unreasonable because the gamemode is sort of evolved around sitting around and doing nothing until something is happening so I’d be tabbed out, not only this I have zero indication that I am about to be kicked which could be fixed by pinging the executable window (where it goes orange in the taskbar), play a audible alert sound a few times and not kicking people in less than 2 minutes for not answering the question.

I can provide a longer clip from this bug report I made already until it was obviously clarified, it’s actually annoying bc this can happen when you are growing with planters too, which is to stand and do nothing until it reaches 100% without anything else in mind.

Why should this be added?:
- Prevents undeserved AFK kick

What negatives could this have?:
- Might take longer to join the server if it’s full (do a proper web application queue system or smth)

What problem would this suggestion solve?: Not being kicked for going for a piss

I feel like the time is more than enough, but theres no indication of it showing up if ur alt tabbed so a sound, like a beep or something should be played, to atleast notify somebody

100%. Please add a notification like the ones we get when there's a reply in an f6 or something similar when the AFK questions pop up.

no, that's not good enough, i barely was away from my computer knowing there was no prompt and came back and kicked as i was answering the prompt, all within two minutes then the server is full and i can't get back in? I think that's bullshit

are you refering to a bug where you get multiple prompts in a row? i solved that by crafting a bandage after afk check

Alt tabbed yesterday for literally 5 minutes to look at some IA stuff while I waited for a pd slot, came back and was already gone

Maybe it doesn't need to be longer but at least play a sound or something

No just in general i was tabbing in and out of the game, ironically uploading evidence for those mystery boxes lol, looking around now and then by jumping off and on the chair basically just keeping my character active to prevent the AFK prompt from occurring in which it still did eventually

I have seen that bug many times too though

I’m fine with a ping sound or something if your tabbed out but the time itself is fine. Some days it’s annoying to try and get into the server when it’s full.
