#6205: Idiot script kiddies again

by guest57 on 08/12/2006 17:52

Some wanker has worked out how to kick everyone off a server - his idea of fun is to join random games, kick everyone, and leave. Funny ha ha. What a tosser.

As far as I can guess, it's that people aren't using master mode to easily protect from that. So someone is just taking master and kicking everyone. Now if there is already a master when this happens, that's another story. But seeing as I've never seen someone do this, I can't say which.

Try compiling the bins with the supplied Makefiles (may require slight editing). It's not very difficult. We just don't have access to a FreeBSD box to compile bins on, so we don't. If someone wants to step up and officially support FreeBSD releases, great, but no one has.

Bit hard to id someone when they are only there for 2 seconds... Just now it was an unnamed, the other I think was 'SERVERKILLER' - subtle as a brick in the face.

So how can I tell exactly what the mastermode of a server is? Also, any chance of a command so that any client can get a list of everyones IP?

The master mode stuff is all in the fine manual. cf: setmaster. :)

You can see who is master or if anyone is master at all just by checking the tab/score screen.

Don't like the idea of an IP list. Sounds like it'd be more of an evil than a good.

#6211: questions

by Toramoth on 08/12/2006 21:39

i have basicly a few questions about everything, some with map making and some with game making

1: How do i play a CTF map in FFA?

2: How do i add flags to a map?

3: I made a door in an SP map, so how do i make it open when someone approches?

4: How do i make a wall corner (in cube it was K)

5: When i try to make a server, it said i couldn't connect to ping. How do i solve this?

6: Will there ever be a "Classic" CTF mode and the current CTF be renamed to Conquest (since that is how it is labled in most games)

Im kind of new to mapping, so sorry if these questions are noobish or have been posted about before, and thanks to anyone who answers them

#6212: Re: questions

by MeatROme on 08/12/2006 22:23, refers to #6211

1. /ffa mapname
2. /newent base
3. check /sp door_demo to understand doors
4. use Q+MouseWheel to indent corners of cubes
5. forward the game ports (requires a good router)
6. unlikely and unlikely

#6216: Re: hacked server

by Passa on 08/14/2006 14:35, refers to #6216

It doesnt kick people randomly, but it does not allow masters.

Its a shame that too, such a fast server, there were like 12 people on and it wasnt lagging :)

something along these lines?
http://www.quadropolis.us/node/277

I just didn't get much feedback on it,
so I guessed nobody uses it.
That's why it usually takes me so long to write it up for each release ... I don't play as much as I used to when I wrote the first one.

At that time I used it for an IRC bot and simply on my console to see if someone was on playing - but nowadays usually there is ...

#6222: Re: n00b @ C++ && *Nix

by MeatROme on 08/15/2006 10:42, refers to #6221

Well, if your so new to coding and using a *NIX system I doubt I could "tell you" in just a few words.

Maybe your best bet would be to install Python (+ win32 extensions by Mark Hammond) and Boa-Constructor and use that to create a GUI-wrapper for the servermonitor app.

To be honest I don't even understand your issue - you say you just get the stdout.txt - and then you say you want to get the info on windows ...
... but the info is there, inside the stdout ... so what _exactly_ do you want?
A GUI? Then use python, which should be easier to get into than C++!
