Additional server parameter

[Bonecrusher]

How about new soldat.ini parameter which would look like "Server_contact=" and could include email address of server owner which would be displayed when trying to join a server you are banned on.

Server_contact=email

default - You have been banned on this server.
when a parameter is used - You have been banned on this server please contact: email for more info.

You can achieve that with a well crafted script, which doesn't mean it shouldn't be built-in anyway.

@FalconPL: Definitely doable, although it appears to be much easier to simply implement it into Soldat itself.

I like the idea. Good thinking there!

I feel like this will be primarily used for server owners to just write "fuck off" in the box. Should probably be called "banned message" instead of contact email, because most/a lot of people banned probably deserve it.

I don't think this will be of much use you probably wont read banned players rage mail for long.
Also the banned message isn't really necessary atm.

There are several other admins on my servers and I cant keep track of all of their actions. This will certainly increase unbanrate when it comes to unfortunate bans like mistaking someone for a hacker or something. Just like Falcon mentioned ill have to get my hands on script doing that, I've had it on climb once but it's lost somewhere on my hdd.

This simple script can be helpful

Code: [Select]

function OnCommand(ID: byte; Text: string): boolean;
var
   player_id: integer;
begin
   if(GetPiece(Text, ' ', 0)='/ban') then begin
      Result:=true;
      try
         player_id:=strtoint(GetPiece(Text, ' ', 1));
         BanPlayerReason(player_id, 43200, 'Contact via email: example@gmail.com');
      except
         WriteConsole(ID, 'Wrong player ID!', $FF0000);
      end;
   end;
end;
