I once saw someone say !ffoff and !ffon, and i want to do stuff like that on my server.
I would like:
!ffon/off - Turns ff on asnd off
!crazyfun - makes gravity 25 and game speed 1000
!aliens1 - makes aliens stage 1
!aliens2 - makes aliens stage 2
!aliens3 - makes aliens stage 3
!humans1 - makes humans stage 1
!humans2 - makes humans stage 2
!humans3 - makes humans stage 3
!normal - makes everything normal, without restarting
-
step one, create a config file that will execute the command (or commands) you want to create. You can put multiple commands in the command file if you want. For example, my cfg file to enable ff is:
set g_friendlyfire 1
cp "Friendly Fire Enabled"
obviously the first command enables FF, the second announces it so noone is taken by surprise :)
I save this as a file called enableff.cfg in the same directory as admin.dat.
Next I need to add a command block to admin.dat to create the command:
[command]
command = enableff
exec = exec enableff.cfg
desc = Enable Friendly Fire
levels = 4 5
command is the command name, so here it will be called as !enableff
exec is the command file executed. You could just put a single command there too.
Desc is what it shows when you do !help enableff
levels are the admin levels who have access to the command.
Example 2.
!startpractice command
set sv_hostname "^1}MG{ ^3Practice"
set g_needpass 1 // toggle password needed to join the server
set g_password "YourPrivatePassword" // server password
this is saved as startpractice.cfg
Then I add the command block to admin.dat:
[command]
command = startpractice
exec = exec startpractice.cfg
desc = Password protect server and change server name too
levels = 5
I have a !endpractice command to revert my settings and make the server public again :)
There are other particulars, but that should get you started :)
Also, watch when you edit admin.dat, if the server reloads while you are editing it your commands will vanish. If you can't shut down the server while you edit admin.dat, its best to do it at the beginning of a map and when you are done, connect to your server and run !readconfig to load your changes. They will be available immediately :)

sorry for the double post but, I put this into }MG{'s wiki for future reference.

thanks a lot :D

Umm... everytime i use a new command it restartes the server and it doesn't work. Help!
[^3S^7] ^3|^7R&V^3|S|^1Door^7Knob^3|^7: !BPoff
execing BPoff.cfg
usage: set <variable> <value>
==== ShutdownGame ====
ShutdownGame:
------------------------------------------------------------
-
Notice the
usage: set <variable> <value>
in the output. Could it be that you have
variable number
instead of
set variable number
?
So, it should be
set g_friendlyfire 1
but you MAY have
g_friendlyfire 1
Also, possibly you did not put exec in front of the command in the exec section of the command block in admin.dat.
also, post the contents of the cfg file, maybe the problem is in there.
-
set is there, and exec is there
This is BPoff.cfg

post the command block in admin.dat that you put in for your command, and post the contents of BPoff.cfg. I can only think that the error is there.
-
The BPoff.cfg is in my last post
and heres the command block
[command]
command = BPoff
exec = exec BPoff.cfg
desc = Disable Unlimited Build Points
levels = 5 6
-
set is there, and exec is there
This is BPoff.cfg
//start this map first
map atcs
If this really is BPoff.cfg, then this is the problem.
-
It doesn't restart anymore but still
!bpoff
execing BPoff.cfg
usage: set <variable> <value>
-
You're gonna make your life a lot easier if you limit whats in BPoff.cfg to the specific changes you want to make.
TBO, the BPoff.cfg that you posted looks like you copied it out of server.cfg which is why I was confused.
Instead of all of that, just put
set g_alienbuildpoints 120
set g_humanbuildpoints 120
into BPoff.cfg. You could also put
cp "Build Points set to 120 per team"
into BPoff.cfg if you want it announced.
The problem with putting all of the other stuff into BPoff.cfg, aside from the problem you are having :) is that when you want to make any major changes it becomes hard to track down where all the references to any of those other settings in BPoff.cfg.
-
Ok Thxs a lot it works perfect now. The cp is a great idea too.
-
Hey Doorknob, I'm putting together some documentation of the admin commands that }MG{ has created. Lots by Khalsa, lots by me too.
It is basically all the created admin commands on my server, some of which may even be useful! :P

-
Would someone help me with a command block for !kickall.
I am trying to figure out how to set one of them on my servers.
-
Don't know specifically, but the muteall command here (http://mercenariesguild.net/index.php?option=com_openwiki&Itemid=46&id=wiki:admin_commands/) should tell you most of what you need to know :)
Why would you want a kick all command anyways? Presumably, if you have access to admin.dat to make command blocks, you have access to just restart tremded, which would do the same thing.
-
Yea I found out how sorry for asking I was looking at http://mercenariesguild.net, and found some useful stuff.
-
Take a look at this file, this is the admin file for the |COM|AoD| server.

how would i do stuff like increasing the dretch health??
i want a !supadretch command
-
simple... You modify the source and recompile.
-
no i meant a command to change dretch health
-
To do that you need to make a coded in command.
Dretch health, like all weapon and class stats is stored read-only, so it will take more than a quick edit.

I'm not sure it'd be that hard, but yes, you would need to modify the code and compile a custom qvm. I think that client stats may be stored in their player info rather than just storing references to the read-only class stats, in which case it would be quite easy.
edit - I realise this doesn't make much sense. I'll try to redeem myself by inventing g_dretchHealth later.

anyone know how to do a !rotationOn and !rotationOff?
i have rotationOn.cfg as
set g_initialMapRotation rotation1
cp "Map Rotation On"
and rotationOff.cfg as
set g_initialMapRotation rotation2
cp "Map Rotation Off"
and my maprotation.cfg is
rotation1
{
atcs
sokolov-1.0
arachnid2
meep_b2
nexus6
thermal
tremor
utcsb2
niveus
sedna-beta3
ancient_remains_1-0
atcs3
atcszalpha-b2
thermal-b2
gloom3t
outpost_p4_beta3
sedna-beta3
}
rotation2
{
}
I was hoping leaving an empty rotation would just make it never change...but it didnt work that way :S
