[PLUGIN] ConfigLoader 0.2.0

[MuNgLo]

ConfigLoader v0.2.0

A quick way to load gamemodesettings to a server. It will set the given rules on connection (if server is empty) or when last player disconnects and server then is empty. After the rules has changed it skips to nextmap to make all changes.

It will also reapply the settings if they have changed. On the disconnection of last player that is. You will still be able to set custom rules for a single game and such.

From 0.1.1 You can trigger a load manually (admins only) by using /loadconfig SETTINGFILENAME.

I tried to make it so it will accept and check any gamemode settings. If it isn't the correct type of value it should spit out an error.

Feel free to give any feedback you have.

Idea is to make it easy to change settings and load them on multiple servers. With ManiaLives config within ini option you can still override the config value and load a special settings file for a specific server.

If you also run my ChangeMap plugin you can use a row like..

Code: Select all

playlist = default

..to have ConfigLoader request ChangeMap to load "default.txt" as a playlist.

This, if succesful would in console look like..

Code: Select all

Sry there is no GUI at all in this plugin. You can load settings with an ingame chatcommand.
(/loadconfig SETTINGFILENAME)
It is primarily a plugin to make life easier for me. It makes it possible to have one config for many servers and let it reset its settings when server is empty.

But you could use it for say different league settings with some (manualy setup settings files) and then use the ingame command for it. If you are to lazy to use the way you can do it ingame.

Oh and yes. All script options you could set under your matchsettings file with an <mode_script_settings> entry is possible in this plugin. Well I hope at least. I haven't tried much outside Elite. But it should work just fine.
