I believe Valve patched that method so even that won't work.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

basically here's the score as far as i am aware. while the client has
cl_restrict_server_commands set to 1 or 2 it is impossible to write
anything to the client. this includes server redirection. i've been off
the scene a couple of weeks and there may be a work around for this but
the latest i heard was all you could do was run a test for it and then
display a nice change this or have a rubbish time on our servers message.

Re: [hlds_linux] Redirect - is it going to work anymore ?

2006-12-06 Thread john @ GamersCoalition

LDuke-

Don't forget, this thread is named "Redirects" not "reserves..."

We use reserves and redirects. People who pay for the hosting of the
server are given reserve slots. Those people without reserves that
were disconnected (before the update) were redirected to another one
of our servers. If they didn't want to be redirected, they could
purchase a reserve, which in turn, goes to our hosted server bill.

As it stands now, we can still disconnect people who aren't paying for
the server to make room for an "investor." In reality, that's good
enough, but it would still be nice to redirect that person to another
one of our servers.

To me, allowing a server admin the ability to redirect a player is far
less threatening than giving a server admin the ability to set the
clients rates, etc.

But whatever, we got a crate of lemons, time to go make some lemonade.

CORRECTION

HLSW is not able to do reserve slots. The reserve slot in the
properties of a server is so admins can still use HLSW to connect to a
server that looks full.

I think the server redirect should remain blocked unless a popup is
shown -- it is too easily abused by bot servers.

However, the reserved slot functionality is gold.  I used to use
reserved slots as carrots to my community and prizes for winning in our
tournaments

Is there another alternative out there for reserved slots these days?
The server is allowed to kick people via rcon so it should be possible
to implement right?

I do like how Valve implemented the min/max variables - good call and
thanks for listening!

I agree in part. Most of the clientcommand stuff used by server plugins was
fairly innocent, and usually helpful. For example, the VIP Mod sent the
client command "use weapon_usp" when a new round started to make set the USP
as the active weapon for the VIP. There are many examples like that where
the easiest/best solution for a plugin was to use a client command.

However, joining a server and having it set my cmdrate to 101 and my
updaterate to 101 when my connection wasn't good enough for that was
veryannoying.  That's why I liked the idea of giving certain client
side cvars a
flag so that they couldn't be changed by the server, similar to how the
cheat cvar flag works. That would have left plugins the option to use
certain commands which don't harm the player, like "use weapon_usp"

I certainly understand your need for some of these things, but
nothing chaps my hide more when I get on one server for about 5
minutes, find out it's laggy and choking and nasty, then get on a
server I play on regularly and experience the same issue.

Until the recent patch, I wouldn't have even looked at my home
internet connection first - I would have made sure that server A
didn't apply what they thought were good client rates for my
connection, which is not necessarily going to agree with them
regardless if they run the server or not.

I'd like to also add that I have yet to find a server that's booted
me for leaving the default restrict left on.

Re: [hlds_linux] Redirect - is it going to work anymore ?

2006-12-04 Thread john @ GamersCoalition

It's a tough cookie. Valve shouldn't be expected to support/consider
3rd party mods, but the pub server provider community (i.e. "us") have
grown to rely heavily on them.

In our instance, the reserve slot incentive provides our sole source
of funding for our public servers. In one form or another, our
not-for-profit operation has been doing this since 1.x days. Without
public servers, where would new CS:S owners play their multi-player
game? If you're in the good fortune to own your own hardware on a high
speed network, great, but most of us aren't.

The current mattie eventscript work around does get us around it, but
it's costing us pub traffic (the interface is NOT noob friendly). At
some point, the bottom line is going to hit us, and we're going to
have to yank our aggregate 92 public slots offline.

Valve, unless you're planning on getting into the public server market
(soon), I'm confident you're going to see the above trend, which
ultimately will affect your bottom line.

"Help us help you." Implement some sort of redirect functionality, or
allow us, the good honest server admins, the ability to disconnect and
connect clients.

Some class it as abuse, others class it as a very handy and helpful function of 
a server.

Can valve not allow an option of redirects whereby the user is given a message 
something like:

"This server is currently full, or has reserved slots in action.

If you would like to connect to an alternate server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx: then 
click OK, otherwise click Disconnect"

They presumably thought that sending a client somewhere they didn't
ask to go was an abuse of your powers as an admin.

Oops. No more servers with all bots and a redirect to another server.

Hated those anyway. I'd rather see redirect not come back.

I think they thought exactly like this when blocking client execs.
They presumably thought that sending a client somewhere they didn't
ask to go was an abuse of your powers as an admin.

Is Valve thinking about this.. ?
