Loves Me Loves Me Not

Summary

Loves Me, Loves Me Not is a lightweight visual modification for Dartkide. It lets you rate people during and between missions for your convenience. This rating is stored locally so you can rate as many people as you want. On the other hand, if you turn on community rating in the mod settings, your ratings are synced to a server where everyone else using the mod can see it, helping the community avoid toxic players and quickly noticing good players.

Rating in general

Rating symbols show up next to player names when you rate them. A rating is bound to an account, not the character. If you managed to catch a toxic player by rating them negative, they will be marked for you as long as you keep the rating file. Ratings are stored in AppData, under Darktide/lovesmenot.json so if you delete it, all your ratings are lost.

There are 2 types of rating: positive and negative. You either rate someone negative/positive or not, there are no scales or different properties.

Ratings are applied by cycling through them. When a teammate is previously untouched, their first rating will be negative. On your second action, they will be positive. On your third action it removes the rating and the player stays clear again.

Ratings next to the player name are only visible when you really need it. These screens are the followings:

• []Mourningstar

  []Lobby (where you press Ready)

  []Mission

  []Mission end screen

  Dashboard

  On top of ratings, you get a dashboard. By pressing the hotkey, a fullscreen view comes up with a list of all the players you rated so far. You can view their account information or delete them by clicking on a player. There's also a "Sync now" button that lets you persist your rating immediately. You can open this menu anytime, anywhere, even during missions. So if you fear that your game might crash before your rating is saved to the disk, bring up the dashboard and hit "Sync now".

  Rating in practice

  You see someone rushing forward and die while yelling the most inappropriate things in the microphone. By using the already set hotkeys you press the button that connects to their position on the teammates panel. A small red logo appears next to their name. You caught them. They are now rated as negative. Althought they soon leave the mission, that doesn't scare you because the next time you meet them a glowing red icon will help you decide whether they are reliable or not. When the mission ends, your rating is saved to the disk and you can continue rating people for your convenience.
