Title: Suggestion for Expansion on Dedicated Server Functionality. Post by: Kumlekar on February 07, 2009, 04:23:15 am I was just lamenting how little control there is over a dedicated server. It wold be nice if running the dedicated server would open a options window that allowed the person running it to see who is online, kick/ban or unban people, set a maximum number of AI per game[/i][/u], and control which maps are availiable on the server.

At the moment the dedicated server is really designed with a command-line environment in mind, which is fine for Linux (ironic, then, that I haven't released the Linux version yet!) but rather awkward on Windows.
Title: Re: Suggestion for Expansion on Dedicated Server Functionality. Post by: Kumlekar on February 07, 2009, 07:16:58 am ok then, is there a way to implement the kick/ban/unban, and AI limits through the commandline?

Title: Re: Suggestion for Expansion on Dedicated Server Functionality. Post by: Kumlekar on February 07, 2009, 06:27:59 pm hm, what about a maximum game duration setting (in the options.ini)
