Kick-ban etc. JOE?

by FilbertMM · in ThinkTanks · 11/18/2003 (8:14 am) · 9 replies

Hi, I was messing around on notepad and I found two things in server. One was an empty folder called Banlist, and the other was called kick-ban and read like this

Quote:! ... kick messageAll name %client isAIControlled add BanList guid getAddress $Pref::Server::KickBanTime delete ban $Pref::Server::BanTime MsgAdminForce The Admin has kicked %1. You have been banned from this server The Admin has banned %1. You have been kicked from this server

It seems like if you put a command oon the banlist and then set something in the above folder, you can boot players. Would Bravetree please send something to Jesse_Stanton@AshlandCreek.net? I would appreciate the information.

There's always some doofus shooting his own team members in team battlemode. I'm assuming we could remove said idiot.

I am asking joe for the info privately. qand it would only work for the server YOU were hosting I think.

"There is nothing in the game code that suggests there is a kickban or kickvote."

(Not those kiddy "seeable" files, the source code)

heh.. Private?

the kickban kickvote stuff is 'leftovers' from the Torque Game Engine, the game engine that ThinkTanks was built with. It is not implemented in ThinkTanks.

Are you saying that there is no way to get this to work in a private server?

Unless -z- will send you some files, which he won't. He doesn't want irresponsibile people getting their filthy hands on administrative tools.
But I, am on a quest, to learn more C++ then I already do!!!
