OK as most of you will know our servers had some crashes recently, both jolt and I think its related to beetlefarts admin plugin, so ive replaced it with Manis
This one has more features and is simpler to use - infact i can write the user guide now with 1 line
bind "v" "admin"
type that line in your console ONCE (doesnt have to be everytime you play, just once to set it up) and your done.
Then to admin just press v and a menu will pop up with options like change map, slay etc
simple
The rest of the comamnds are listed below
Code:
Informational console commands
These commands are provided to show the state of the plug-in and are for admins only.
adminshowranks
Requires plug-in config admin access
adminshowranks console command shows the current list of players held in memory that have played under the ranking system (shown in steam id order)
adminshowrankedplayers
Requires plug-in config admin access
adminshowrankedplayers console command show the current list of players in memory who have been given a rank (shown in rank order)
adminshowadmins
All admins in the adminlist.txt file can access this
adminshowadmins console command shows all the admins and their powers (admins online have a ‘*’ before them)
adminshowconfig
Requires plug-in config admin access
adminshowconfig console command shows the current values of all the mani_* console variables.
Adminshowtkviolations
Requires plug-in config admin access
adminshowtkviolations console command shows all the players who are on the current tk violation list in memory.
Changing plug-in config parameters
If you are using the menu system, press the key you have bound to ‘admin’
Select ‘8 Plug-in Config’
Select an plug-in configuration option you wish to toggle.
Note that by changing these options it will be permanent unless the associated server var (e.g. mani_adverts) is in the server.cfg file.
This is not particularly comprehensive at the moment but is enough to enable/disable major functionality.
The mani plugin server vars can also be changed by using adminrcon or using normal rcon.
Admin Explode
This command can be achieved from the console using
adminexplode
Where ever the admins position is in the game, an explosion sound will be heard and sparks seen (no damage).
This is only here really for amusement, binding the command to a key makes it even more entertaining.
Admin Say
This command can be achieved from the console using
adminsay <message>
For example if I want to say to the whole server ‘Hi there’
adminsay Hi There
Another way of doing this in game is to use the @ message command using normal chat.
In game I would hit my ‘y’ key to start chatting in normal say mode and say @ Hi all players on the server
Note that there MUST be a SPACE between the @ symbol and your message do NOT do @Hi all players on the server or other players will see what you originally typed !
The message will be displayed in the top left hand corner of the screen and echoed from the player ‘say’ area (this depends on server vars set, see mani_server.cfg)
Admin Only Say
This command can be achieved from the console using
adminosay <message>
For example if I want to say to the admins on the server ‘Hi there’
adminosay Hi There
Another way of doing this in game is to use the @ message command using team only chat.
In game I would hit my ‘u’ key to start chatting in team say mode and say @ Hi all admins
Note that there MUST be a SPACE between the @ symbol and your message do NOT do @Hi all admins or other players will see what you typed !
The message will be displayed in the top left hand corner of the screen in red (this depends on server vars set, see mani_server.cfg).
Only registered admins will see this.
Logging Admin actions
A note should be made that all commands are logged in the CSS server logs for traceability of admin actions.
All logs issued by the plug-in have [MANI_ADMIN_PLUGIN] associated with the message
Player commands
Most player commands can be done from either ‘say’ commands or from the console. In general the console commands give a better description of the action.
Listmaps
This is a console only command.
It shows the maps in the mapcycle list and maps that are on the server but not in the mapcycle.
It also shows the current map being played and the nextmap that will be played.
Nextmap
This is a console and ‘say’ command.
It shows the next map that will be played in the console and on the upper left of the screen.
TheTime
This is a console and ‘say’ command.
It shows the current server time in the top left of the screen.
Timeleft
This is a console and ‘say’ command.
It shows the time left for the map
Votemap
This is a console and ‘say’ command.
From the console the user can specify ‘votemap’, this will show the current status of the ongoing vote.
From the ‘say’ command a menu is shown detailing the maps that you can vote for with the current voting status.
FF
This is a ‘say’ command that looks at the server var mp_friendlyfire and displays whether friendly fire is on or off.
Any problems let me know
