Ns Adminmod Plugins

Narfwak

<div class="IPBDescription">Any NS specific plugins?</div> Other than Golex's team changing plugin, I haven't seen too many plugins specifically designed for Natural Selection. I would like to see a lot. Anyone know where a list of plugins that are designed for NS or would work well in NS can be found?

so far it's just this forum.

there's prodigy's excellent readyroom plugin (kicks afk players in readyroom), and i posted a very simple teamchange plugin, but teamchange plugins don't really work any more in 1.03 <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->. also someone posted a plugin to make all join team entities random, so that a player would always join a random team (although they could jsut type jointeamone in console)

i think server admins are still getting a grasp of what we need/want. i did have a thread asking for ideas so i could work on some (http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=8&t=13712) , and i know someone is working on a gorge voting plugin (so you could turn a gorge into a skulk and prevent him from goign gorge if he is doing a bad job).

also i think we need one to stagger people into the readyroom when the game is done, because moving them all at once is crashing large servers (however, this is an NS bug and they might fix this on their own before a plugin is done)

I can make adminmod plugins, is there anything in particular you would want?

A helmet laser plugin that works would be nice. I tried installing the lasersight plugin for metamod, along with a controller plugin for adminmod. The AM plugin works perfectly, but the MM plugin doesn't do a damn thing. Maybe what I really want is some help to get it to work correctly.

Also, a new controller plugin for AM would be very nice, one tailored specificly for NS.
A) Make lasers come out of helmet spots where they came out of in the trailer.
B) Make them admin toggleable (i.e., admin can turn laser option on or off completely).
C) Laser voting in case admin isn't present.
D) Make them client toggeable, IF the admin wants that as an option (sometime the aliens need a bit off help)

Another plugin that would be nice would be something to manage the sv_eastereggchance variable (I think that is the name). That way I wouldn't have to use rcon whenever I wanted to change it.

An "eject commander" plugin would be super useful, for when votes fail when they obviously shouldn't.

That gorge => skulk plugin sounds nice; both admin_ and admin_vote_ flavors would be the best (make the vote one default access so anyone could use it).

Weapon banning would be pretty lame, from my experience playing Firearms when more than half the weapons would get banned.


I can't think of anything else, although that list should keep the scripters busy for a while <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

Make gorge and commander an admin level access thing... if the WON isnt authorized, they can't play that role.

All too often I'll play an hour or longer match that was over in the first 5 minutes because of squandered or misspent resources.

That'd be nice, but I think it should have a vote. Admins aren't always on the server.
