I was just wondering if there was a way to be able to kick someone by being a admin not by casting a vote. is this a sort of mod?

also i was wondering if there was some sort of AI mod that would allow you to play offline?
thanks

Hi,

so far I have found two "mods" that give you admin capabilities. Both are no mods though, but modified server code:

- TJW's code from http://tjw.org/tremulous/
- R1CH's code from http://www.tremulous.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=470 (mentioned somewhere in the middle of that thread)

or of course you could also use the builtin rcon capability.

Rawr

and how do you use the "builtin rcon" ability?

Chojin

Hmm, don't exactly remember... open the console and type:

\rconPassword <rcon_password_you_set_in_server.cfg>
\rcon kick <playername>


Though I very much suggest that you use TJW's or R1CH's Code. For example with TJW's Trembot you can:

!kick <part_of_player_name>
or
!listplayers
!kick <slot_of_player_shown_in_!listplayers>


(for those guys with unread/writeable names)

Rawr

is this what i needed to do?

//passwords
set g_needpass 0
//set g_password 160109   //server password
//set rconPassword 160109 //rcon password

//

Chojin

yes, set rconPassword in your server.cfg.

Rawr

Does the password need to go......................
//set g_password or here //server password ..here?
//set rconPassword or here? //rcon password ..or here?

please copy and paste where it goes or just put in on bold

Smokey

/set g_password HERE //server password
//set rconPassword HERE //rcon password

Rawr

and to open the consol is just the tilde key right "~"?

Rawr

and to open the consol is just the tilde key right "~"? then \rconPassword <my password>

Chojin

Hehe, I see your problem now. All the stuff after a setting and every line starting with "//" are just comments.

like this:

set <variable> <value> // <comment>
set sv_maxClients "14" // note to self: try higher someday


So you need to set it like this:

set rconPassword "topsecret" // don't tell anyone

Chojin

Quoteand to open the consol is just the tilde key right "~"? then \rconPassword <my password>

Yes. And every command you want to send to the server you need to prefix it with \rcon.

Paradox

To enable rcon, first you need to remove the // infront of the password command, that prevents the engine from parsing it.

∧OMG ENTROPY∧

Rawr

set rconPassword "top secret password" //rcon password
so its oughta look like this right?

Paradox

In the server config, you will see a like like this
//set rconPassword "password"
Remove the // and then rcon is enabled

∧OMG ENTROPY∧

Rawr

grrrrrrrr still not working...
anychance that one of you can copy and paste what your guyses looks like? just hide the pass with stars****
