Some servers dissalow autopilot, because they want to keep slots open for people that actually want to play. It all depends on which server you're on, usually the more popular ones will disallow autopilot.

So i can go on any server in auto. For example, i was on louman's lasermania.
I suppose it's a bug.
Code: Select all
While the game is loading (downloading map...) i hit 9 and it goes in auto even if it's not allowed.

Weird. This happened to me once also. I take it you're on windows, right?
The nasty thing about autopilot is it tells you where the rabbit with stealth is

On the score list, it will say "[auto]" next to your email string.

other way round... disabling auto makes a better server.

Aren't those the same thing?
Unless you are saying that the most popular aren't the best servers... Which makes no sense....
