Config voting

Post by Sphere »

This MUST have been covered before but I can't seem to find it so I apologise if it's a repeat question.

Need to know how to do 2 things.

1) Automatically exec a config when the server boots. (i.e. what line do I put in server.cfg to automatically exec the clanwar config)

2) Have a vote on the voting menu to load a config. (not via the console)

Thanks guys :)

You positive you can add exec clanwar.config ? I don't mean a .cfg file and this may have caused some confusion.

I'm SURE I've seen a server which allowed the voting of configs via the in-game voting menu though.... :?

This is inside the example.cfg file that comes with etpro:

// vote_allow_config - vote_allow_config is a space delimited list of
// league configurations available for voting and to referees, for example:
// vote_allow_config "leaguea leaguec". A value of "*" means that all
// existing configs may be voted for.
// default: "" (disabled)
set vote_allow_config ""

its simpel

you can not load the config direcly atleast that didnt work for me

make a +exec start.cfg
start.cfg

Code: Select all

exec server //you server settings
wait 10
vote_allow_config "clanwar" // your .config's
config clanwar
this is how you can load a .config on starup

Yes but that only allows voting vis the console - /callvote config clanwar etc

I'm asking about having it in the in-game voting menu which I've seen someone do so I'm sure it's possible.

Shame on me. I wasn't paying attention.

Would this be something that would need to be downloaded by the client? Perhaps you could look in your folder(s) for it if it is.
