If I'm running a dedicated server, and someone joins with a really long and odd name, is there any easier was to kick him then typing /kick dsjkhsdf'sdf__dsf ???? Sometimes it'll give me an error when I use certain characters, and I'm unable to kick at all. Any thoughts? Is it possible to kick via IP, or via Client #?

Come on... I know SOMEONE has to know a more efficient way to kick someone off a server...

type "status" to get their player number, left most data in table of players. then type "clientkick <num>" POOF! be gone evil doer

How abou banning by IP? How do you ban a IP???

nope, sorry not possible, not until MatrixCPA bot is ready! (BTW i'd love to be a beta tester)

DBS

type status....

then type....

addip IPOFPERSON HERE

then....

kick and that persons name or...

clientkick and the persons player number

:amidala:

He has to have the server variable set to allow IP banning (escapes me at the moment, search this board for better instructions).

The easiest way to kick players (the one I use) is simply to use the STATUS command, then use the CLIENTKICK command with the client # listed in the Status.

Ex:

/rcon status
<omit stuff>
2 110 0 Aerys Targaryen 0 192.168.1.101

/rcon clientkick 2 (the first # on the line with the player's name)

That kill kick them regardless WHAT their name is.

1. "g_filterban 1" must be set in your config file for ip banning to work.

2. use "addip" to add an ip to the ban list. (FYI: 0 is considered a wildcard, ex. 192.168.1.0 would bann all ips in the 192.168.1 range)

3. use "removeip" to remove an ip from the ban list.

4. use "g_banips" to list the ip's currently in the list.

5. "kick" kicks by name

6. "clientkick" kicks by slot number

7. "format c: /u" formats your harddrive erasing all your data. please type this into the dos prompt... hehe j/k.
