tribes2 has pretty good admin tools although they still had to build more :)
Anyway, this is clearly getting up some peoples noses. obviously as half-life is an old product and the tools are now avaliable I don't expect (or even am I seriously suggesting) that this is something that should happen with half-life. I think all games that run on a client / server model should really put alot of thought into the server side of it and providing good tools for server ops. Half-life isn't the only software that has this issue, almost every fps does. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Joshua > Gardiner > Sent: Wednesday, 11 September 2002 7:42 AM > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: RE: [hlds_linux] VALVE: Fix The RCON Bug! > > > Out of curiosity, which game servers (other than cs) do you run that have > these features built into them?
