New member Server question - asp - 03-05-2012

hello. iam totally new here ...

i hope this is allowed to ask the server questions!

I use Linux Debian 6.0 Squeeze!

My Startparamter over my webinterface :

Relative Executable:xonotic-linux32-dedicated

case "$(uname -m)" in x86_64) executable="xonotic-linux64-dedicated" ;; *) executable="xonotic-linux32-dedicated" ;; esac +serverconfig server.cfg

i running a server here , i modificate the server.cfg but the server overwrite not my hostname, visible is : Xonotic 0.5.0 Server .

i put the server.cfg into the data folder!

and after some times the server crashed without any reason .. here is the log :

RE: New member Server question - Mr. Bougo - 03-06-2012

You should use the server_linux.sh script that can be found in the server directory.

Does the log stop there? There's nothing more than that? That's strange.

Of course it is =)

Is that some/path/xonotic/data/server.cfg or ~/.xonotic./data/server.cfg? Afaik the latter is the recommended way. As id does not set the hostname, im suspecting it may be refusing to read server.cfg from the location you have it - but that's just a guess.


RE: New member Server question - asp - 03-06-2012

so server crash fixed!

what is the right path for the server.cfg because i have always only Xonotic 0.5.0 Server instead of my hostname?

//hostname "RoundhouseKick by ... $g_xonoticversion Server" is right? or without the $g_xonoticversion Server ?.. hmm i try all!

@Mr. Bougo

I use a special Webinterface for a communication between a user and the server/root and you can directly start/stop/restart server->/can add specials ->/ can upload things directly to ftp and many more.. its a bit complicated only to use the sh scripts. there are some more things to do with it :-)


RE: New member Server question - Mr. Bougo - 03-06-2012

Remove the //, that's the prefix for comments.

How did you solve the crash?

SOME OTHER QUESTIONS!



- How i can change the weapons damages and ammos

- How i can change the items and armors on maps

- is it possible to set a cfg with multijumps ? that you can jump 2-4 times in the air?

i think thats enough till now!Wink


RE: New member Server question - Mr. Bougo - 03-08-2012

Keep in mind that the changes you want to make won't be welcomed by everybody. Plus, for the weapon balance part, the server will not be marked as "vanilla configuration", i.e. you won't have a xonotic icon next to the server in the server list.

Editing maps is a bad idea too, item placement is (or should be) done intelligently and mappers (should) have taken care of this. If you think the items are not placed right, talk to the mapper about it. If you really want to change the layout, be aware that most players won't like it: they are used to the item placement from the original version of the map, and messing with their habits will break the game. If you still want to change the layout, you have to edit the map. That's not an easy thing to do. You can also use an entity file but that's not easy either. If you want to learn how to edit maps, have a look at the wiki and the editing section in this forum. http://dev.xonotic.org/projects/xonotic/wiki/Mapping

No multijumps possible, you'll have to write code for that mod. Not an easy task either.

For weapon balance, you just need to change the relevant cvars. Have a look at the file balanceXonotic.cfg for a cvar reference.
