Records system for Time Attack (I haven't check if it works actually), possibility to change the gamemode at each maps (Choose a map and a gamemode possible in the playlist).

will there be a fast for shootmania ? it doesnt need many features but we do need something to use.

As i asked previously few posts ahead, what would be useful features for a SM script ? basic admin commands for handling maps (next, restart, prev, load matchsettings or add maps in list), handle players (black, ban, kick, ignore, spec, play, red, blue), handling game mode settings (a way to see and change them) ? what else ?...

Slig, you have listed the features required by my needs. I cant think of much else, an SM controller would need less than a TM controller. All I can think of is
- admin control , next, restart etc, kick, ban, ignore etc, list / load / save match settings, load/change game script, add from SMX.
- player controls, donate, list maps, choose maps, pm
- chat emotics, good game, nice shot, hi, bye, etc
- server rank would be nice, but perhaps to hard to do in a fair way
- end screen stats ? who you killed the most, shot accuracy, etc ????
other less important features that maybe some people want might be
- timeattack records
- point limit settings
- team balancing controls ?

I would like an auto mode change so as to be able to run a multi mode server
IE playlist consists of mix maps battle,Royal, siege, Melee, player created modes etc
controller would read next map mode in list and load the correct script at map change.
Dont know if this would be possible but sure would be fun.
thanks slig
when can we expect beta version???

Surely not soon, as i won't be at home several weeks... unless i find some willing to work on it, but it would be mostly unexpected. Btw it's possible that i test few things about it, and so eventually work on it a little more
Also the xmlrpc stuff seems to be unfinished for the SM part of the beta, so it's probably not good to hurry too much on it.

Have to find another name also, the T in Fast was for Trackmania (i've few stupid ideas of names, but i keep them for now)

And now we have a new "Platforms" game mode... I'm guessing FAST would need to be updated/modified to work with it as well? Or should it just work?

No idea :p
Perhaps that i will do a quick test this afternoon to see.

Cool. I can't test myself until the Local LAN option in ManiaPlanet works again.
