Map Remaining time


(Dominian) #1

I’m not sure if this has been asked before so I’m gonna ask anyway.

I’m using qstat to remotely poll information from an ET server that I do stats for. I’m wondering, does anyone know of a way to poll the remaining time left in the current map running? I would like to be able to put this information into the stats page that I have running as well.

Thank you for any information you can provide.

It’s not possible to fetch this information with e.g. qstat with vanilla ET.
If you can fetch some info from the server log automatically, you can peek at that to decide when the map restart happened and go from there…
If you can send an rcon packet to the server, and the server happens to be running etpro, you can use the ‘time’ command to return the current round time. If it’s running shrub, perhaps shrub has a similar command.
