Public Settings By Default?

Post by Slippery Jim »

Does ETPro place ET into competition mode by default? (since it is a "competition" mod after all, lol).

Is there any way to force it in the config files to use public settings by default?

Whenever the server is reset it goes into competition settings and we must manually change it back. Pain in rump.

Thanks guys.

yes, he wants to FORCE THE CONFIGS to NOT make you press f3 when you start. He thinks that etpro makes you press f3 since it is a competition mod

Well only a theory.

I want to know if there is a config command to force the server to use public settings.

The F3 thing is one of the things we don't want.

The defaults should be pretty much unchanged from vanilla ET.

Thanks Rain for dealing with things that weren't ETPRO's fault.

I did a lot of searching on this subject and I could not find the answer.
'ref pub'
That can be entered into the config? Is that not just a console command? What is the proper syntax then if it can be used in the config?
'g_doWarmup 0'
Hmmm, that seems to remove the warmup totally. We don't want that. We just want to get rid of the F3 Hit Ready thing. I have played on servers that immediately went into warmup without the wait for people to hit F3.

Thanks again for your time.

#1

Code: Select all

ref pub
#2

Code: Select all

set g_doWarmup "0"
set g_warmup "60"
g_dowarmup "0" will stop the need to hit F3
g_warmup "xx" will set the warmup time

Thanks for the reply and the info Badhabit.
set g_doWarmup "0"
set g_warmup "60"
Not wanting to sound like I am arguing but I have already done that and it shut off the warmup totally.

I will experiment some more to confirm once again that this is happening.

Thanks a lot to all that have replied so far!

Technically, the entire config file consists of console commands. :P
The syntax is the same.

g_doWarmup 0 only removes the need for players to ready up; however, when this is disabled, the countdown will begin IMMEDIATELY when the server loads the next map--whether you're done loading and in the game or not. Make sure your warmup time is long enough to account for load times.

At first it looked like g_dowarmup 0 completely turned off the warmup.

Gotenks convinced me to test it with a longer time (unfortunately I did not read Rain's reply before that, lol).

Thanks Gotenks, Rain, and to all that helped me out in this thread. You guys are the best.
