    Poll to re-add the piano back in the maps.

    Piano was removed from the maps which had it; Due to 'lag fixes', i recently opened a suggestion to re-add it in the maps but it was closed, so for the first time in 2 years playing CM, i joined CM discord, to talk with the devs to ask why the suggestion was closed, and the answer:

    nobody has expressed interest in coding it.


    From what i can understand, the problems are the ones below:

    • Old code which generate lag issues
    • No devs interested in re-writing it
    • Some players just think its annoying having to listen to it without a option to disable instruments



    So here i am opening a poll to see the players opinion if they want the piano back in the game; Even without devs re-writing piano code to fix lag issues, just re-inserting the piano back in the maps like it used to be, or with minor modifications.

    Link to the suggestion below.

    [Suggestion] re-adding piano back in the maps.

    Quick note:

    Paradise code have a line of code to disable instruments sounds in the preferences, and since they're open source, CM devs might be able to copy only without legal consequences i hope that line of code so players which think piano its just annoying don't have to listen to it, if they don't want to.



    My hope here is to make devs notice how much we care about the piano one of the most interesting RP tools in the game, imo and that at least one dev pay attention into 'fixing' the piano code, or just re-inserting it in the game the way it is. Third option, re-inserting the piano the way it is, with a minor modification to disable players disable it in the preferences if they don't want to hear the piano.

    Due to not being able to figure out how to use the poll system from the forum, i used a third party website for it, link below.

    pshh, i would like to thanks Kryth for providing the website for a third party poll system, i was having some problems figuring out how to use the forum one

    Is the auto piano still a thing or was it removed as well? I had a bunch of fun making midis of various songs and slotting them in when it randomly showed up in medbay one day.

    And auto piano would remove the main problem people have with it (garbage noise), while still allowing marines to pretend to be billy joel.

    They just need to copy pasta /tg/'s code for not hearing instruments.

    As mentioned in my previous posts,

    yes to piano to create more interesting rounds, also yes to mute instruments sounds like how you can do with midis
