Couple of questions

[Moses]

G'day

I'm new to CoD admining, and have a couple of questions.
Tried to kick a bloke today, but it wouldnt let me because it said that user was not in the server - eg. I got his name wrong, when I dont think i did. He had a space in his name. Also, I had the same problem with a different guy, and he had colours in his name. when I do /rcon kick name does it have to be exact, with the colours and everything? and how do i kick someone with a space in there name?

Also, I know there's a command to kick a player by there user number, but pressing tab doesnt show a users number, so I'm wondering if there is a way to find out a players number, as thats a heck of a lot easier than having to remember which name I need to type to kick them.

Cheers for any help :smile:

Open the console and type :
status (or /status)
There you will see all the players on the server with a number near them !

To kick a player, look is number and type (always via console) :

/rcon kick NUMBEROFTHEPLAYER

example : /rcon kick 14
(if the player you wanna kick has the number 14 near is name).

to find ID number.

/rcon status.

First number you see is ID number.

Then
/rcon clientkick ID


ANd he are out of there.

Hmm.. I am trying to think about the admin tools that have come out for CoD and so far I don't remember one that did load balancing. One of the mod's will speak up if theirs does. If not one will be developed, it's just a matter of time.

Personally manually load balancing a server is to much of a pain to keep up with most of the time. An admin could do nothing but yelling at people and booting people if they wanted to.

Team sides always even out eventually. Just not fast enough for some. The only time I worry about it is when our clan want's to all be on one side. Then we just try to keep the others to the other side. In those cases we ask them politely a couple times to move over, then a last warning just letting them know they will be removed if they don't move over and finally if they continue to blow us off, we remove them from the server. But it's rare we have to do that.

ok fair enough.

What about talking as 'consol'? In MOH admins could talk as 'consol'. is there anyway to do this in CoD? cause this has more bearing when someone is spoken to by 'consol' than just soemone on the server

The tilde key (~) brings up the console. Anything messaged from here will be from the console.
