Frequently Asked Questions
The questions that come up most often about running a seating script.
Does Need4Seat open tables automatically?
No, NEED4SEAT does not have a lobby scanner in the earlier releases. You can however use TableScanTurbo to do that; the setup guide walks through the configuration. Later releases include a lobby scanner of their own.
Where can I define my fish labels?
The default configuration joins all unlabelled and green labelled players. If you are using other colours for your labels, the configuration has to be adjusted for them. Giving players the option to choose from a variety of labels is in development.
What are the main influences on scanning speed?
Scanning speed is most significantly influenced by your internet connection and your CPU. However, running a lot of software in the background might also slow scanning down from time to time. There is a longer article on this in the Writing archive.
How does the Tell-A-Friend program work?
It's simple: a friend signs up through your referral link, found under Need4Seat › Help › Refer a friend. Whenever they buy a license, you receive a discount code worth ten per cent of the amount they spent.
Is the software allowed on my poker network?
That depends entirely on the network, and it changed considerably over the life of the software. The network-by-network survey in the Writing archive sets out where seating scripts were permitted, where they were tolerated and where they were prohibited and enforced.
