BC2/BF3/MoH/MoHW admin daemon feedback

[nutz]

what like you're busy or something?

well it would be handy to have for when bf3 comes out...thanks!

The daemon will likely be adapted for BF3. This is something that I will be looking into during the BF3 beta period.

Are we set for release day?

[Edge100x]

I'm still working on it, CrazyCro. I can't test right now because the beta is over. DICE is also still fleshing out the protocol and fixing up bugs.

Just tried the commands a few times in bf3. Crashed our server (adept resistance).

events:
!k QiQi888
admin.listPlayers all
Something about server failing. <--not a direct quote

Console commands seem to work fine from the website.
It is just the in-game daemon stuff.

Thanks,
mal

If it shows that it was disconnected from the server, that means the server crashed. If admin.listPlayers all (which is a built-in command) triggered it, I'd recommend staying away from that for now.

[Edge100x]

I've investigated and confirmed that the admin.kickPlayer function in BF3 causes the server to crash right now. We'll have to wait on a fix from DICE. In the meantime, I recommend not allowing admins to use the "!kick" command.

what about the ingame chat portion of the admin daemon. So far it's not working for us. Did we do something wrong or is this another instance where dice needs to fix a few things before you are able to get this to work ?

[Edge100x]

The game doesn't support sending messages to players right now, if that's what you're thinking of. So you won't get personal responses to commands there (such as who was kicked/banned). If you use the commands through the "Server control" page, you'll see responses there, though.

This also means that on-join messages to players won't work. You'll have to go with regular timed ones for now.

say commands to console work, but yell isn't working.

[Edge100x]

Yell doesn't work in BF3, no. That's why it's disabled on the easy setup page

Been testing Procon to see what we can do.
Need to stop testing and start playing. lol

I am wondering if any of you guys know how I can increase the rush ticket count for my server? I see no option for it under the startup file or in the control panel.

[Edge100x]

There isn't a variable for that, unfortunately: http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewto ... =70&t=5898

What has your experience been with the latest Procon and BF3 so far?

[.=QUACK=.Major.Pain]

It has a few bugs.
No plugins until the are alter to work with BF3.
Has basics for moving players in squads, kick, ban, etc.
'say' chat works.

With layer are the most bugs.
reserve list is on hosted, but not appearing on local.
maplist can mysteriously disappear and need re-entry.

Working fine for the early stages, but for more tools to become active,
it requires BF3 updates to enable some of the features and commands.
