Implemented Suggested changes to !benefits

After playing on the server for a while and using the hat manager from this command on the server I learned there are some things that came to mind aswell to other people.

1: No visible prices - It would be helpful for when you want to buy something with your points you can see how much it is actually worth.

2: Missing effects - Other users have made me aware we are missing many unusual effects and I feel it would be suitable to at the very least have all of them available for purchase.

3: Effects cannot always be applied - Sometimes the effects cannot be applied to a user's tf2 loadout because of their hat choice and so can't benefit from what they have bought with their points.

4: Effects cannot be taken off - Some users may regret attaching an effect to their head because it doesn't look as good and want to detach it but there's no option for that, I think it would benefit users to have the option to take off the effects if they wish. - Now invalid, just been told there's a command for that.

5: Points cannot be refunded once spent - Of all my suggestion it isn't that horrible but having the ability to refund an effect if you don't want to have anymore would be nice for users to use, maybe make the refund give them reduced points than what they spent so they still have to farm to get equal again.

Thank you for reading and feel free to tell me why you disagree with anything here in detail or show your support for these suggested changes.

 

I would love to see these changes in effect, because at the moment the benefit system is a bit buggy and needs A LOT more features like the ones listed in this thread, for example the Refunds and the fact the effects can't be taken off. If these are integrated then it would make the system a lot less stressful and more usable.

 

The fact that you cannot remove them is a feature not a bug, or lack of feature, its a VIP benefit.

Others I agree would be nice to implement.

 

Just hoping we could get some new features added to this. I see what you mean by some of it being VIP benefit, I'll take another look at VIP benefits to double check if I've been making mistakes but people who farm points overtime do get access to the benefits command. After all, all users can put !benefits and earn points by doing stuff on the server and getting unusual effects so this is directed more towards that.

 

You can take effects off by using command "sm_hatremove <effect|color|all> [all|current]"
example: "/hatremove all " in the chat to remove all attached effects from your hats.

 

How about a team spirit sole mate with the nebula effect, how would you put in the command for that?
And is this sm cmd available for all users?

 

Idk how to use the command to remove single effect, test it yourself.
It works for me so it should be available for all users.

 

I remember using !hatremove all all
It removes all effects from all hats. And if you put just sm_hatremove in console it tells you the full command.

Also there is an old thread with effects prices here.

 

I'll get a list of the missing effects sorted asap

 

There are a total of 96 unusual hat effects in tf2 that I counted on the wiki and a total of 85 effects available using the command. Meaning we are missing 11 effects and its going to take a while to find those 11 of 96, I'll get the list and edit this post but at least I know how many we're missing.

 

Those 11 are possibly also weapon effects.

 

And/or taunt effects, neither of which can be added I'm guessing.

 

Nope, I ignored the weapon effects but I may have included the taunt effects, if there are 11 unusual taunt effects then we aren't missing a single hat effect and I was wrong. Some people said we were missing effects but tbh I only looked for nebula to equip :3

 

These are the missing effects

Edit: I sadly do not know the English names.

 

I can see the event and year though, halloween 2015, now we know, thank you for getting the answer for me, really appreciate it ^^
