Should be the option of the place creator if they want to allow players to be about to open the menu and reset.

Support. There was a place that (before the reset button) had a forever ragdoll script, so when exploiters or abusive admins came they would loopkill and lag the server with all the ragdolls. I guess that's not the only problem, but it's still a bad part.

What does your story of the ragdolls have to do with being able to reset?

My idea is removing the reset button, well not removing it making it a option...What does that have to do with ragdolls and lag?

The reset button is basically the same as loopkilling. You can purposely lag a server by spamming ragdolls of you, which spawn when you die.

He said it should be optional, which is a great idea.

@Nivin It breaks more then just ragdoll scripts. Some places don't want their players to be able to reset. And if they do, simply enable it. Or make your own reset button, one of the easiest scripts there is, and is easier to get to faster then the other.

What if the person who made the game wants you to be stuck at that moment?

Lol. Scripters can easily make it so if you really get stuck, you can reset. Otherwise, if they want you stuck, you can't. -GD987: LuaLearners Writer, Teacher, Scripter, Forumer, Game Developer, Troll-

@Green Before the reset button they could. Now all the player has to do is Menu > Reset and the scripter can do nothing about this.

No support. Admins may use admin and say "jail/player1" and you cannot reset, therefor being trapped. (i.e. an exploiter exploits admin commands and jails you). # [X101 Maj. General Kelly :]

@Kellapod And what if the person who made the game wants you in jail or somehow trapped?

I already supported, but unbuild is right. If an admin or the owner wants you to be stuck, you shouldn't be able to escape.
