turning off the team lock ?

[TigerMan4]

is there anyway I can turn off the teamlocking thing in amxx ? without turning off the auto team balance ?

meaning , I want to keep a silly admin from locking the teams all the time , so that only my clan can join allies or axis.

help ?

I`m not real big on team stacking , and would rather balance the skill and keep my server full , and I would also like to keep the teams even in numbers...eg: 16v16 not 30v2

amx_cvar mp_teamlimit 0

and what file does this go in ?

the cvars ?

the cvars ?

well.. if you want to put this code in a file to be executed on every map change.. put it in server.cfg in your servers root folder...

amx_cvar is an in game command which allows you to set server configs. to the server... mp_teamlimit is such a console command (mp_teamlimit is built into the game and is available without a mod)

amx_rcon mp_teamlimit 1 would do the same thing for on the fly changes...

is this permanant ? or can it still be side stepped by admins ?

I need a permanant turn off for the teamlocking, short of taking away everyones admin except mine.

I added exactly the way wilson typed it to my server.cfg.

so that should fix it untill someone figures out how to turn it back on.

**** or which flag do I take away from my admins to keep them from being able to lock the teams ?**** that would be better yet.

eg: take away flag H amx_teamlock axis <clan tag> "you have no access to this command" ????

you only simply need in server.cfg

mp_teamlimit #

replace # with a number that means how many players a team can have over the other before being blocked from joining that team...

amx_cvar is a command used ON a server while you are actively playing to make the change....

think there may be a miss understanding.

what is happening is this.

amx_lockaxis "clan tag" and that way only people with the clan tag can join the axis team.

or amx_lockaxis "admin" and that way only admins can join the axis.

this is the problem I`m having with one of my admins, and I dont know whom it is doing it so I cant take it away from them.

they lock the team so only certain tags or admins can join it , and no one else can...even if they have imunity , i tried the other night to balance the teams and I chose allies rifle and ended up on axis as a rifle instead, and there were all non clan members on allies and all clan members on axis.

hope this makes better sense.

oh ok.. you have an issue with a specific plugin... please list the plugin name and where it can be found online... in the meantime.. simply remove the plugin listing from plugins.ini and not allow anyone to use it...

AND, if you go into your amxx logs folder it WILL list who uses what command and when... so you can never wonder who is doing what... you simply look it up and have a copy of their actions... it logs most everything including when any person joins the server and has ANY flag set for them... btw, if you ask members if they are doing and then lie to you... keeping them in your clan or as a server admin would not be suggested...

Are you the leader of the clan or a high member ?? I would not admit to claiming not knowing what member is doing what on your server... the more members who are privy to this will begin to do more they think they can get away with... Nip the problem in the bud and publicly discuss your issues with your members....

but in any event, post a link to the plugin source and someone can look at it and let you know who has default access to what commands and so forth, and may even suggest how to "alter" the program so only certain "Admin" have control of it...

it doesnt say who's running the commands in the amxx logs?

then again i dont know what plugin your using so it might not have any logging stuff in the code

[TigerMan4]

I dont know what plugin its part of , wether or not its this or not I dont know.

//For Teammanager
dod_tm_autoteambalance 1
dod_tm_autoteamjoin 0
dod_tm_nochangedeath 1
dod_tm_teamslayfx 1
dod_tm_spectatorlock 1

all I know is , you can lock the teams so that only certain people can join it.

as for being clan leader or high member , I am the leader of the clan and I rent and run the server.

I do know the way to fix the locking, (this fixes it)

amx_unlock axis
amx_unlock allied
amx_teambalance 1
