-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Here is a short list of things that should be part of a server by default Anti-cheat software that is pro-active, i.e. Speed Cheats and No-Recoil should be easy to detect and prevent if built into the game engine from the very beginning and not as an after thought. eg. How there os no check on a player moving from spawn to the opposition spawn on a regular map within 5 seconds of the round starting makes you scratch you head, or people who adjust their cross-hair back to center in under 10ms for each and every shot, really should not be that difficult to code for, surely? A real pure server option that is difficult to compromise and easy to fix if designed with the assumption that whatever you do it is going to get cracked in some method. Anti-Cheat software that works, period!! Server watcher that actually watches the server and will correctly reboot the server when it crashes as well as produces useful server statistics, uptime, player count, stay time, unique ID's, rejoins, team changes, map changes and map times, cpu usage, bytes/second/player IN/OUT, total bytes/second, fps, memory per player, total memory load. Player stats that are not mixed in with the day to day server logs. Logging that does not dump everything into one file. Player Actions in one log, chat in one log, rcon usage in another, errors & other stuff in another, etc etc. With options to allow it to be dumped to one file if you wish, but have the other options available. Proper Multi-CPU, multiple server process support on the one box so it is easy to run 6 Server processes of the same game on the one box that has the CPU resources to do so, without stuff triping over itself in some form or manner. A friendly fire option where the only person who is damaged by friendly fire is the Team Attacking Offender and not the innocent bystander. Same skill as required by normal FF servers, absolutely no retard angst caused by stupid team attacking fucktards. This feature alone would raise the bar in CS/CSS immensely without the tears.
