You put an arenaname.cfg in your server folder and edit settings in there.

To make your zone permission only, put a permit.txt in your server folder with the usernames you want permitted. Then change Permission:PermissionMode to 1 in your server.ini.

You can also make hidden arenas by prefixing # to the name of the arena, like #test.

You simply name configs as
arenaname.cfg -- will be public

#arenaname.cfg -- will be private

hmm, and how can i make #areananame.cfg protect with a password?

CypherJF · Posted: Thu Jun 24, 2004 7:23 am Post subject:

Simple: You can't. but if you were experienced in bots, you could program it to check on user_enter, see if the user exists in the "allowed" list; and if not have the server boot em. Just an idea...

With ASSS you could make it a server-side feature, eh, "just an idea" too.

how can i kick a player? and ban?

CypherJF · Posted: Thu Jun 24, 2004 7:27 am Post subject:

Read up on www.shanky.com/server/commands.html

Was going to say, it'd be easier w/ ASSS if running windows, get Merv :: plugin it and use the setarena command on a player, instead of booting em.

<< can't get ASSS or Modules to compile on Win32 :/ soo..

in my areana are 1 or 2 bonus how can i set it to 100?

CypherJF · Posted: Thu Jun 24, 2004 7:41 am Post subject:

Well, if you read the www.shanky.com/server/ website you'd find that information... but:

server.cfg

Code: Show/Hide

[Prize]
PrizeHideCount=50
PrizeMaxExist=3000
PrizeMinExist=800

Code: Show/Hide

Prize:PrizeHideCount:::Number of prizes that are regenerated every PrizeDelay.
Prize:PrizeMaxExist:::Maximum amount of time that a hidden prize will remain on screen. (actual time is random)
Prize:PrizeMinExist:::Minimum amount of time that a hidden prize will remain on screen. (actual time is random)

Yup, although I didn't see any Dutchness in your quote.

I'm sure someone writes a module with arena protection for ASSS, or whatever.
I don't understand why you'd use MERV on ASSS, bots are so obsolete if you run ASSS.

Zyro · Posted: Thu Jun 24, 2004 7:54 am Post subject:

hmm, i never can find a bonus what is the problem?

CypherJF · Posted: Thu Jun 24, 2004 8:26 am Post subject:

They may be spread out all over the map, if you have radius of prize spawning = 1024..

back to the ASSS module, like I said.. I have yet been able to compile a module... With either Dev-C++ or MSC++ 6.0; it continues to say missing this and that file; MS C++ 6.0 doesnt support long long, so there'd be edits to that etc etc.

I believe it'd still be under the [prizes] section.. just read up on your template.sss (open w/ notepad or any other text editor) or edit it via in-game {esc-c}...

he give the eror Only the owner of this arena can view the settings and i have set me as owner and you say it... What wrong?

Cyan~Fire · Posted: Thu Jun 24, 2004 10:45 am Post subject:

You also need to have the correct userid put in Owner:UserId.

Smong · Posted: Thu Jun 24, 2004 1:50 pm Post subject:

The whole point of the #hidden arena is only tell the name to the people that need to know about it. No need for a password or you might as well password protect/whitelist a normal arena.

long long:

Cyan~Fire wrote that himself...

These two settings control how far out prizes spawn. But you could just set the initial bounty on each ship higher.
[Prize]
MinimumVirtual=<less than 512>
UpgradeVirtual=0

in ASSS you can make it so that only users with a certain capability can enter (ie seemodchat)

ASSS is a new server target for the linux operating systems... http://sscx.net/asss/
