Topic: Control Panel

Hi, it'll be great, if u make Control Panel for Server Administators.

I think, there're may be some fucntions like:

-changing map
-changing server configurations //like changing game type or maxclients count
-pausing the game
-giving weapon to someone
-kicking players
-slaying players

thank you.

Re: Control Panel

He's talking about an admin tab in the game's Esc menu where you could manage your server as you play on it. A sort of graphical version of the rcon console, I guess, that's how most online shooters do it.

I believe it is something planned for future versions, though I don't think I agree with all of the suggestions. Just because you can pause the game in Soldat doesn't mean it'd be a great idea for Teewars, for example.

Re: Control Panel

in rcon.
the ones I know for sure:

to change map:         sv_map=(map name)
to kick someone:       sv_kick=(player name)
to change max score:   sv_scorelimit=(score limit)
to change time:        sv_timelimit=(time in minutes)

I'm not sure about any of the other commands but these MIGHT work:

to set warmup time:    sv_warmup=(time in seconds)
team damage on/off:    sv_teamdamage=(0 for off 1 for on)
to change gametype:    sv_gametype=(ctf, tdm, dm)
to change max players: sv_max_clients=(1-12)

again the last set MIGHT work but I'm not sure.

Re: Control Panel

all values you can set in the config you can set via rcon. Some only show up after the map is restarted or changed however.
