Auto Switch Teams for Beta 1.0.20.48

[[BIA]Mooncat]

Im using the RCON version of BF2CC and just like to first of all say :

Muchas Gracias por (spainish is crap) an excellent piece of software.

Ive not been able to get the auto admin side to work (as i believe this is only available when using the Daemon version)

However in the rcon version there is the facility to switch an individual player to the other team on next death.

This is feature is extremely useful.

We run 2 rounds on a single map on our server and I just wondered if theres an existing facilty or plans to add the facility to switch everyone on a team to the opposite side at the click of one button ?

When we run 2 rounds a map it would be a handy feature to have so that we can play as USMC then MEC by simply clicking a button on map change ?

It is also handy for clan matches etc

If there is already the facilty I would appreciate someone telling me where ? if there isnt already Id like to request the feature in future releases !

Thx very much

That is something I was going to look at for ModManager yes.

Any Update on this killing :D

Thanks,

PS, i think clanforge and bf2cc works really well without the deamon features, but this feature would improve game play.

I had ago with making a modmanager module that swapped the teams at the end of the round.

however, the sqaud setup is lost when its done.

i know that sqauded ppl have a squad id assgned to them so i suppose you could create an array to hold the sqaud info. but i dont think you can force a player into a sqaud with code.

so u cant get your sqauds back to how they were.

[K]

Thats correct squads will be lost but tbh I dont think thats any big deal as it would be likely the squad setup would be different anyway.

[banger]

any way you could upgrade this to clan tags to one side,without me switch off auto balance each time we decided to do a clan vs public?

[swampthing]

Not too bothered about loosing the squad, it doesnt take long to set a new one up.

:wavey:

Something like Banger said there would be useful. We have the same thing where we decided to do [-CT-] vs everyone else. Would be easier to do it that way.

P.S. Banger, say hello to the VS guys for me, some of them may remember me as Cyber back in the days of BF42 ;)

[banger]

will do samford:D

Killing,

Any update on the team swap thingamajig ?

:)

[K]

Sorry I've not had any time :(

[swampthing]

No worries,

:icon15:

I guess its not something i can help with,

[[BIA]Mooncat]

Is there any update on when this feature could be added ?

I originally asked in BF2CC

See : http://www.bf2cc.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=8510&highlight=#8510

They directed me here so I guess the buck stops here ?

[swampthing]

Killing,

Any update ?


:fart:

[K]

Sorry nothing to report, I just have no free time for this atm :(

[Losty]

slacker :p:

[gavjof]

I too would love to see this implemented.
Being able to run two rounds, and play as both teams would be real useful.

Sort of like playing RTCW stopwatch, only without the clock ;)

Maybe mugworth might donate his code and you could use that?

[swampthing]

Hi All,

I for one would really like to use this, i am supprised its not an server option or a feature built into the game.

Most maps are one sided and heck all of the maps are not perfectly balanced so, one round each way makes perfect sence.

As for loosing the squad, people come an go in a squad from round to round so its no problem to start a new one.

Anyone got any down sides to this thought ?

[swampthing]

Any news Killing ?

:(

[K]

This is now available in ClanForge see the news for details

[Spaxx]

Ok,

simple question. Is this working with a ranked profile or only with an unranked?

Cheers

Spaxx

[K]

It will work with both

[Spaxx]

Great!

Thanks

[gavjof]

I cannot wait...

/me wets myself!

[[BIA]Mooncat]

How do we use this facility ?

Do we use the command via :

console ?
BF2CC ?
Clanforge ?

Oh and thx Killing for paying attention to us and giving us what we desperately ask for this will make my life a hell of a lot easier when running a match. I may actually get to relax a bit (me thinks not)

Its an additional module for ModManager, just select the addon in ClanForge and it will make all the needed changes to your modmanager.con file ( as mentioned in the ClanForge -> News ). Then just restart ur server and your away.

ATM this is just a Multiplay release if all goes well I'll release to the general community, think of it as an added benefit for using Multiplay servers :D

[banger]

thanks killing:)

Just 2 questions which im unsure about.

This will auto swap everyone to the other team at the end of the round?

Once this is done are the existing squads kept or must they be re-created manually?

[Boffykins]

Squads needs to be recreated

[jaffaman]

Thanks alot for making this mod m8 Can you use this on the ranked server or just a passworded server? and what setting do we change?

[K]

Might be a good idea to read the thread so I dont have to answer the same question multiple times :P

[swampthing]

THANKS,

great news

:D
