Auto screenshot feature
Okay, my suggestion probably will help the Market Squad a lot on solving scam reports and other things but can also help all other staffs.
The market squad hate when someone open a duel scam reports without any evidences. So, i'm suggesting to add an auto screenshot feature to the toribash.
How it could work:
*You can activate the auto screenshot through the settings, just like replay autosave;
*When duel mod is on, the auto screenshot automatically turns on and takes screenshots every match played;
*If you duel items or USD, you can always leave it on for your safety;
*All the screenshots goes to "screenshots" folder.
If you get scammed, you'll have all the necessary evidence to solve your case.

I have to agree on this. Maybe put a timer on it for it to take the screenshot. Also settings so you could modify when it takes the screenshot and where.

About the difficulty of it I'm not 100% sure, I might be wrong there I'm not a game dev.
All you forum users can argue for it as much as you want, but people who actually enjoy and play the game on daily basis would like to get some update too, but sadly that is not happening and staff of course always get what they want because they have a voice in this community. However, staff doesn't play this game nearly as often as an average player so of course you Don't give a fuck about in game changes.
Go ahead make a poll IN GAME if people would rather like to see a visual update of the game or auto screenshot feature and then decide how bad people need it, since your main concern seem to be players.
1. Yes they do, they duel for smaller sums but they do duel, also every player that has ever duelled has had a first duel. In that instance ot is highly possible they didnt know what they needed as evidence. Testament to this is the number of scam reports that have insufficient evidence.
2. This game is still on steam so it will still attract new players, also the beginner servers are still used quite a lot, so there are still new players
About the difficulty of it I am sure, it is very very easy.
ES by definition are ingame users, I have been an ingame user the whole time Ive been a member other than when Im at uni and the firewall blocks the client.
This is a ridiculous comparison, the relative amount of work for a visual update compared to this is laughable. All this suggestion has to do is call up the already made /ss code, then delete a file every now and again. Comparing this with graphics changes is ridiculous
Don't dm me pictures of bowls that you find attractive.
Even though I see where this is coming from I have to agree with Smaguris, the issue itself can be easily resolved by 3rd party screenshot programs and I don't see any way how it can make the game better.
As of now, Toribash makes .bmp screenshots which take lots of space. With the default 720p resolution they're 2.63 MB each, imagine having automatic post-game screenshot feature you suggest enabled 24/7 and here you have a cluttered hard drive after a month of playing the game. And even if we don't consider storage why would anyone want to keep thousands of dull screenshots?
Yes it can help at solving scam reports - but honestly, why would you care if users don't have enough evidence to prove they've been scammed? If they agree to play a non-automated duel that implies a risk of getting scammed, they should be smart enough to screenshot every chat message - just in case. As for hosting events - it's easier (and way more reasonable) to get a script that'd keep you updated with all info you need, including a list of players in the queue at the moment of the event's beginning.
speaking shortly, the majority of users won't need it, it will eat disk space, those who may find it useful should consider different ways of solving their issues

If the images get deleted automatically in code I dont see any reason for it to become a memory hog
The main argument I see for it is to protect new members, this category is unlikely to know where to find scripts or pick up this parricular one.
The reason to care about users getting scammed is that they were cheated out of "their" belongings, its reasonable for young, early teens and before, to not think about how likely they are to ve scammdd on their first duel when theyve never even heard of the forums
also itll take almost no work to code
