I'm tired of logging on at night and there's some jackass who joined the game by themselves and decided to log out, leaving their character sitting in a room while the people who logged on to actually play have to fucking suffer.
Here's the solution.
Put a minimum number of required players to play each Game Mode!
Me and Kao are stuck watching the fucking game with one player in it that logged out within the first in-game hour of starting the game.
Another helpful thing: When a player logs out for more than... let's say ten minutes, the character will die from a heart attack as they would if Kira killed them. Or just ten minutes of inactivity. Either is fine.

Generally the game doesn't get much traffic during the night hours anyway, for one thing.
Secondly, there is a minimum requirement. It's just that when the game is in debug mode, any mode can start with a single player, for testing purposes.

Can the inactivity thing be added in though, so that people won't be searching for an AFK person hiding in the vents the whole round? Or so that when someone logs out, after ten minutes they die? Sorry for sounding like a dick in the Subject of this and all. It just annoys me because this is the fourth time it's happened this week.  |

The issue with dealing with AFK players Mega is that trying to create a system where they die can also lead to those who genuinely have to go for part of a match being killed off. The killing of those who log out for over 10 minutes is something that I do think may be a good idea however.
However, unless I am incorrect it's one of the host/minihost responsibilities to ensure that what you described above does not occur. Perhaps some players in other timeszones could be made minihosts on the main server to remedy this Frosty?

I don't think the 10 minute killing thing is a good idea, mainly because there are situations where I have lost internet for ten minutes, and come back to the game when it is back. Rather, what I will do is make it so that if there are no logged in players in a round, the round ends. Or you know, you could always make another server. There's not just one server, you know.

It's not that simple to make another server for most people. Everything I have (including the laptop I use) denies hosting a server of anything other than Hamachi Minecraft. =/
