Re: [hlds_linux] Server redirect
There is a redirect ability built in to the plugin interface, but it requests the user to push F3 to accept the redirect. There is no way to automatically redirect anyone. It used to be possible to execute "connect ..." on the client, but this is one of the client commands blocked from being executed on the server. Some "honey pot" farms had as many as 50 servers redirecting to 1 server, which was annoying to players and considered abusive. Because of people like that, regular server operators can no longer use it in appropriate situations. The F3 option would be good though. I'm not sure which admin plugins support it. Check Mani, Beetle, and SourceMod to see.

Re: [hlds_linux] Server redirect
Hi, valve is still working on the function, that server admins can change ip addresses of gameservers without losing them in the steam favorites ... my tip: change the servername and post the new ip address ... and add server messages, for example with mani's ad's messages, every 30 seconds, that the server is out of date and it has a new ip address ... i have done this a lot of times and it worked very well ... in css there are possibilies to pop up a dialog to ask a player if he wants to connect to another server ... but im not sure how it works, never tried that ... but a plugin could make it: check www.sourcemod.net good luck andreas -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Eirik Nilssen Sent: Sunday, March 23, 2008 3:30 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list Subject: [hlds_linux] Server redirect Hi guys, hope you can help me out here.
