AD Framework v1.1 released!

Post by **AfterDune** » 2010-08-26 14:26

Today, a new version of the AD Framework has been released!

If you don't know what this is, in short, the AD Framework provides Server Administrators with easy ways to administrate their server in-game.

Don't close the window, read on, as there are changes that also benefit you.

How do I recognize enabled servers?

The new version has a "sponsor message" built-in, which displays a message every five minutes, saying "This server is powered by the AD Framework". This is a message of appreciation towards me, but also a notification towards you, as this means you are allowed to use certain commands.
Please note this message is optional, Server Administrators can disable it. By default, it's turned on.

So what's in it for me?

!shownext
People always want to know what the next map is. Instead of asking a server admin, simply type "!shownext" in any chat (squad, team or global) and you'll receive the answer in a personal message, which gets displayed on the top of the screen. By default, you'll also hear a beep.

!report, !r
Now also available, a report function. If you use !report (or short, !r), your report will be sent to all in-game administrators. How to use this? Easy, simply type "!report [partial playername] [reason]" in any chat. For example: !report somename stealing assets.

!version
If you're interested what version the server is running and want to know which modules are enabled, simply use this command. It will send you a personal message with the requested information.

I want to know more!

Feel free to read the Installation and User Guide, to know more about the possibilities of the AD Framework.

I hope both Server Administrators as well as players will enjoy this new version!

This will make things so much easier for the admin to keep the game under control.

This is fantastic news! Will make in game administration much less intrusive to other players on the server.
Great having such talented coders on the team.

cheers for this wonderfull tool

one little thing tho

if you as a admin use !swapteams when everyone is ingame playing the enemy will get the same outfit as you

me and butlerdom tried this on Muttrah skirmish and we used that comment then a enemy came running towards us ( UKWF death=from=above) and he had exact the same costume as us but having a US gun and his friend had that aswell

Well, you should only use that command when nobody has spawned yet, otherwise yes, this is the effect. Thing is, sometimes you can't swap a player, if he's "stuck" in a vehicle, etc. So I'm not killing all players first, that's a bit weird. Just use the command in "pre-game".
