<h1>

|
Setting up a Server
|
|
</h1>
|
|

|
<h2>The AssaultCube Server</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Dedicated servers run in the shell only (no graphics), with increased priority yet use very little cpu time and memory,
|
|
so you can run one in the background, or at the same time with a client if you want to host a game. Server port is
|
|
fixed at <b>28763</b>, with <b>28764</b> being used for the server info requests (both UDP).
|
|
See the <a href="getstarted.xml">Get Started Guide</a> to find out how to join a server.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Main Configuration</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The AssaultCube server is mainly configured using command line options set in the server script <i>assaultcube_server.bat</i> on windows or
|
|
<i>assaultcube_server.sh</i> on linux.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="code">
|
|
bin_win32\ac_server.exe -c8 -n"My AC Server"
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Possible command line options can be obtained from the <a href="startup.xml">startup section</a> of this documentation.
|
|
Run the script to start the server.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="maprotation">Maprotation</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the maprotation file specified on the command line (default: <i>config/maprot.cfg</i>), you can specify
|
|
the map, mode, time and voting for your server. Each line defines one round. Example:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
// server side maprotations
|
|
// WARNING: You can NOT use CubeScript in there
|
|
// use the following scheme:
|
|
// map:mode:time:allowVote
|
|
|
|
// tdm
|
|
ac_complex:0:10:1
|
|
ac_depot:0:10:1
|
|
ac_desert:0:10:1
|
|
ac_mines:0:10:1
|
|
|
|
// ctf
|
|
ac_mines:5:10:1
|
|
ac_depot:5:10:1
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The first line, <span class="code">ac_complex:0:10:1</span>, means, the map <i>ac_complex</i> is played
|
|
in mode 0 (Team Deathmatch) for 10 minutes. The connected players are allowed to vote.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h1>Administration</h1>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Cheating</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Cheating is a problem that can't be solved entirely.
|
|
AssaultCube is opensource, so everyone that knows how to compile it can easily modify the source to do whatever he wants,
|
|
thats the problem of opensource games. The fact that the whole game logic is client-side, to save a lot bandwith, makes it even easier to cheat.
|
|
There is no way to avoid this abuse.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="serveradmin">Server Admin</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is a client role a player can claim called <i>admin</i>.
|
|
It can be claimed by the real owner of a server to take control over what is happening when they are present.
|
|
Claiming admin state requires a password that matches the server configuration.
|
|

|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<a href="reference.xml#identifier_setadmin">setadmin</a> - become admin on a server
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<a href="reference.xml#identifier_connectadmin">connectadmin</a> - connect to a server and become admin
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<a href="reference.xml#identifier_giveadmin">giveadmin</a> - gives the master state to a player
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Use the <span class="code">setadmin</span> command to claim admin if you are already connected to a sever.
|
|
However if you are locked out of your own server because you are banned, master mode is private or because all
|
|
client slots are taken, you can use the <span class="code">connectadmin</span> command to get control
|
|
back though. If you want to leave the server in the hands of a certain player <span class="code">giveadmin</span> can be used
|
|
to give control to a honest player.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The admin password is configured using the <a href="startup.xml">-x command-line option</a>.
