The main thing here is a user-selectable lobby status, which you can set by clicking on your own name in the player list in the lobby
- Away from keyboard (or type /AFK)
- Wants to scout: (or type /SCT)
- Normal
When you switch to "Wants to Scout" mode, this automatically sends an audio alert (car horn sound) to all other users who are in this mode -- the idea is that you can set your status to Scouting and then go browse the web or whatever and get an alert when someone might be ready to join you. (To avoid spamming, the sound won't happen more than once per 4 minutes from a specific player)

Also in this patch:
- New motorhome textures, including some rare ones (thanks Bastille!)
- Three new wilderness missions maps- one near Firelight and two between Texan and Sarsfield (Thanks viKKing!)
- Some code to support the upcoming player-written narrative missions

Thank you!

I was wondering when DW was going to get it's own version of "LFG" (looking for group)

Nice addition Sam :) though maybe color of gang name should change when looking for scout, at present it reverts to the afk blue. maybe a different colour as a visual indicator would also be nice.

That sounds nice, although an option to look to scout by town would be better really

Thanks for the adds Sam.

- :stare: ahh, I guess this is a bad to time to mention that I just figured out how to add nice rivet effects that automatically change colour to the background on the MHs :thinking: Something for the future I think. :)

Looking forward to the missions Vikking.

Could just be 8 different statuses, and then as someone else sets to the same town it could give a honk, but not when it's the other towns.

There's a bug that stops the audio alerts when you use /sct to set your status, btw. If you use the dropdown options when you click your name in the players list it works fine. Bug fixed but not worth a re-patch until there's other stuff to go in..

I meant a new colour for looking to scout with a town code in brackets where afk was
