Would it be possible to create a plugin that upon a command such as !remix on and !remix off could modify the srvr_config to enable/disable team remix? It would certainly help for community war games where communities want to have an internal community war and don't want to have to assign team captains, and it will also help the lobby war community as well.

Well this topic is still going on. I have to say I haven't watched much Anime recently (maybe a year or so) the last thing I saw was GITS (for the third time)

Im not too sure whether I just dont enjoy Anime anymore or whether its just I dont have time really to shit and watch it.

Why not just change the settings and restart? Generally you want different settings for a war anyways...

That's not always possible when there is nobody online to change the server settings, thus it would be easier if a script like this was created.

The main purpose of this is to jump between lobby wars and clanwars easily, even if a server restart is required it would be much more useful if it was an automated process without requiring someone to manually do it.

I guess you could hack such thing in place with PHP exec, a webserver, and a tool like BIAPPMGR for autorestarting the server.

Recruit

Or have a simple mIRC script to run a batch file to kill the process, open and modify the file and then restart the server.

Do you also want to set the remix team setting the FDS is using when a player executes one of those commands? I mean, if you type a command in it will immediately apply the setting on the server and save it to the config. Or do you just want to save the setting to the config and have the running FDS use the old setting?

Just flip RemixTeams in svrcfg_cnc.ini, the settings change will load on map win.

All you'd have to do is make a simple 5 line chunk of code to load and write the file back out with that one flag flipped.

Or you can just call cGameDataCnc::Save_To_Server_Config(void)
