Approved Remove dead/alive chat visibility restrictions.

[Mordy]

I see this all the time, where people are holding a conversation with someone on the other team, only to have it interrupted because either one of them are dead and the other person is alive. People will often say something immediately after they die, only to have who it was directed at not be able to see it.

People not aware of this will get angry at you and accuse you of ignoring them, when simply, you just didn't see the message because it was blocked. It does more harm than good.

EDIT: This concerns all the Badwater servers.

i can type to the other team when alltalk is on

Yeah but not when you are dead, apparently.

When you are dead in VSH, hale can't read your messages. This may have been addressed earlier and failed, but if you didn't know, now you do.
+1 for the suggestion in OP.

Are you sure alltalk was enabled? People can turn it off with a vote.

Even with alltalk enabled you cannot see text from dead enemies. We have just tested it on Badwater LA2

Which doesn't make sense one way or the other imo...

 

[Bottiger]

So what setting allows it?

Doesn't seem to make a difference. Yesterday with alltalk off we could not see dead enemy text and today with alltalk on we still can't see dead enemy text...

This seems to be related haven't read much though since I'm in-game atm: http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=1136199

That's for CS and we already have sv_alltalk enabled if it isn't turned off by voting.

Somehow whether alltalk is on or off you cannot see chat from dead enemies...
