Servman 3 Non-Official

[BRooDJeRo]

Servman 3 Non-Official 1.0 for DCS 1.2.7.23803

 

A multi-player server administrator with an ingame command-line settings and user interface as well as text-based basic settings capability's.

(Based on Servman 3.0.1 RC1 by Panzertard)

 

 

 

 

Features:

- Mission voting

- Message of the day

- Server rules section

- Automatic mission restart

- Automatic mission rotate

- Automatic server pause

- PING guard

- Automatic kick and ban system

- Sub administrator and squad login system

- Chat and trouble shoot logging to text file

 

 

Installation:

- Copy and paste the contents of the DCS World folder in this package into your DCS World gamefolder.

- Overwrite the main.lua file when prompted. The original main.lua file is renamed and included in this package.

- Change default settings in DCS World/Scripts/Addons/ServMan3/serverconfig.lua

 

Need to know:

- Either 'restart_miz_after' or 'rotate_miz_after' needs to be enabled. Both turned off results in internal Servman error. The code seems to have an exclusion rule for when both options are active, but not for when both are turned off. The error has no effect on the running server. Just Servman will not be functional.

- When the function 'squad_login_enable' is enabled and a registered 'local subadmins' is also a member of a registered squad, the sub-administrator must login as squad member first before as sub-administrator to obtain administrator rights as a squad member.

 

NOTE: Use a program called Notepad++ to successfully modify .lua files. (http://notepad-plus-plus.org)

 

Basic Commands:

/info - Server information

/help - Servman ingame help information

/conf save [filename] - Save Servman settings to a configuration file

/conf load [filename] - Load a previously saved configuration file

/reinit - Hot-restart of Servman after modified settings of other files for instance

/restart - Restart Server

 

Turn Servman off:

- Change to the original main.lua file by renaming in the DCS World/Scripts/net folder.

or

- Rename the 'Addons' folder.

 

 

More commands and manuals of Servman can be found on the official Servman 3.0.1 RC1 documentation pages.

Is there anyone still running Servman after 1.2.5?

[HiJack]

I'm running both ServMan and Slmod.

[ajax]

Yes, the 159th is running Servman.

[Pman]

My server runs Servman

[BRooDJeRo]

Servman 3 Non-Official package updated to support DCS 1.2.6.17746

[HiJack]

Thanks BRooDJeRo, any functions changed?

[BRooDJeRo]

The program itself hasn't changed and it most likely never will by my personal uneducated in lua hand. Servman still seems to function on this much newer DCS software. The question is for how long. Most likely until the same functions will come as a standard in DCS multiplayer server where it could create function conflicts.

 

In these non-official versions only DCS World 1.2.6.17746 compatibility is created and quick and easy download that should/could function with the lastest official DCS World release.

 

When someone has made a small improvement for himself or god knows what else with this plugin and doesn't mind sharing any improvement with the fanbase public then by all means post it for implementation and everlasting fame.

 

Quick, easy and simple should be the motto with Servman!

Thanks!!!

Thanks!!!

I assume it fixes the stats issue.:thumbup:

 

Can you clarify the problem you mention? I'm currently not running a test environment myself to check up on our beloved historical Servman.

[Hamblue]

Sorry, You caught the post before I edited the stats part.

I get the program mixed up with SLMOD which has stats that is used for autokick. That is now not working or fixed.

Good to see that there's an option again :thumbup:

[BRooDJeRo]

Aha! :D

[BRooDJeRo]

Eagle Dynamics released DCS World version 1.2.6.18651 today so that deserves a compatibility update for the Servman 3 NO 1.0 server administrator.

 

Servman package released here is tested in the latest DCS environment and functions as intended.

 

Enjoy.

question

 

i had set subadmins, and everything worked fine, then i enabled squad login, and they can log in fine, but now the subadmins no longer work? anyidea how to fix

[BRooDJeRo]

i had set subadmins, and everything worked fine, then i enabled squad login, and they can log in fine, but now the subadmins no longer work? anyidea how to fix

 

I need more information than only this question to find a lead or a solution.

 

- The server config text regarding admin and squad registration, you can use other symbols for names and passwords.

- Are there any duplicate usernames and corresponding passwords for squad members that are also admins?

 

Note: "Full admin functions may still be disabled until he logs in as full admin"

 

Meaning: When you're logged in as a squad member than you need to log out as a squad member first to login as admin when being a remote client to obtain full admin rights. Perhaps even fully reconnect to the server.

 

This is all speculation for me as i do not know your order of testing things, settings used or what you have tried at this point to make it work. It's even possible that this feature has never fully functioned correctly, but then your should be discussion about it in the official Servman threads. Even the current version of DCS could be changed enough to start this problem.

 

When all settings are correct than try setting 'kickbanlevel = 1' and see what happens.

Why is there no /ban picture in this thread?

 

 

 

There, that's better.

[BRooDJeRo]

That looks about right Sn0w.

 

I'll run a test on a server here with remote client a bit later and see what happens for me. If you want you can delete the serverconfig with some personal details.

[BRooDJeRo]

Why is there no /ban picture in this thread?

 

 

 

There, that's better.

 

I did think about it, but didn't post it. Mainly because i'm not the writer of this plugin or want to nick it away for personal fame. Also out of respect for Panzertard's work etc.

 

Unless you all tell me to stop bitching about it and i'll ad it to make it one and the same.

[Sn0w_Lynx]

Any progress the reason I want to have admins instead of just a aqua login is because I want to reserve the ban ability to just the admins and not select squad members

[Sn0w_Lynx]

My issue is solved. I can log in as subadmin after I also log in as squad

[HiJack]

My issue is solved. I can log in as subadmin after I also log in as squad

Yes, thats the way it always have worked ;)

[Sn0w_Lynx]

Yes, thats the way it always have worked ;)

 

Lol I never found clear directions :)

Thank you HiJack for some clarification on Sn0w_Lynx's issue. :thumbup:

 

 

- Servman 3 Non Official now has a download for DCS 1.2.6.19532.

 

- 'Need to know' contains the additional information: When the function 'squad_login_enable' is enabled and a registered 'local subadmins' is also a member of a registered squad, the sub-administrator must login as squad member first before as sub-administrator to obtain administrator rights as a squad member.
