I issue a disconnect, and if they are still on the server 2.5/10th seconds later I then issue a kick.
Why do I do this? Because I have my own custom way of displaying a useful kick message. (Example: http://www.voogru.com/images/new_ban_message.jpg), if I do a normal kick, they will get the useless Kicked by console message and might miss my custom one. One problem I had when making this work, is if you sent the custom message, and immediately kicked them off the server, they wouldn't see the custom message, I solved this by delaying the disconnect/kick for 1/10th of a second. It would be nice for valve to make a way to boot a player off the server with a useful kick message that doesn't limit me to 5 characters, but I'd be dreaming then. - voogru. -----Original Message----- From: Christian Marschalek [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 10, 2005 10:50 AM To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: [hlcoders] Server Plugins - Interfaces? Hi everyone, If I understood the server plugin example correctly, I can only access certain features through interfaces. Now I wonder if there's a list of interfaces I can use in a server plugin? What I'm looking for especially is a good method of disconnecting a client. I know that the engine interface has a execute client method, but somehow executing a "disconnect" on a client to kick him from a server does not feel right. I wonder if I have access to the same methods that disconnect a user when I execute an "rcon kick" command? BTW: Does anyone know of a searchable archive of this list? best regards, Chris _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
