kots2k teamplay night vote here

[gregster]

im thinking of having a teamplay night what you think ?

[[FOE]TIMMI]

just a night ?

have it for a week thats what i say :)

i say, put the q2admin vote option like i have on my server
make sure the command to vote is q2vote
so someone would have to type "q2vote exec teamplay.cfg" or q2vote exec deathmatch.cfg"

Maybe if they had the 2nd server up that could be changed from a low level to tp or whatever for special events?

Team-balance always seemed a little strange in ctf/tp? I always end up playing extreme high levellers and average low level on my own team :E

yea... i need to talk to kenny on that.... also, it should be different for teamplay... all teamplay is, is 2 different teams fighting for control of the flag... it should be more cooperative than that...

no thats ctf teamplay is one team fighting against the other like pvm

anyways i dont want players to vote tp or dm cause if we had a tp night im sure one would vote for dm and it would all mess up

anyways point is i want it controled by the admins not the players

Baked, me and others often play all the various modes of play on the USA servers ;) We dont seem to have a problem in someone voting a mode over to a different style of play. The only trouble comes with monster vote and thats only due to peeps not voting and your previous default gets added/subracted as you leave/join the server, so the mode changes without anyone been malice and actually voting in the console.

As discussed indepth on the K2K forum, its something thats better suited for Kenny to introduce some extra vote options in, so you can still limit/override certain options but allow other player votes. If an Admin can just type an rcon command in the console that locks it into tp mode for example but it will automatically clear itself back to default mode if they forget to change it back ( if no players on server = zero for x amount of time / on map change then change back to previous default mode ).

Bake's q2admin vote cfg could be easierly adapted, to let only Admins do the vote or perhaps done in such a way to give an override command that would disable the normal voting option if that was allowed.

ok, to enable and disable the voting, one with the rcon, or lrcon could put it where they could mess with the command
"sv !vote_enable"
if they change it to "yes" then client voting is on
if they change it to "no" then client voting is off
