server problems with voting

(coda) #1 
set g_allowVote "0"

set vote_allow_antilag "0"
set vote_allow_balancedteams "0"
set vote_allow_muting "0"

despite of all of that in the config, people still vote shuffle teams and whatnot, its really annoying. also, a ref vote does not count as final. any chance that those may be addressed?

thanks.

in ET the shuffleteams vote is called

vote_allow_shuffleteamsxp

these are the voting options AFAIK:

set g_allowVote "0" 			// redundant, use g_voteflags instead
set g_voteFlags "0" 			// controls all non-osp voting
set vote_limit "0" 			// # of votes per map, resets on successful mapvote...
set vote_percent "50" 			// % needed for vote to pass
set vote_allow_comp "0" 		// vote to load rtcw osp competition settings
set vote_allow_pub "0" 			// vote to load rtcw osp public settings
set vote_allow_gametype "0" 		// vote stopwatch/obj/campaign etc
set vote_allow_kick "0" 		// vote to kick a player
set vote_allow_map "0" 			// vote to change to specific map
set vote_allow_mutespecs "0" 		// vote to silence spectators
set vote_allow_muting "0"		// ?
set vote_allow_matchreset "0"		// vote to reset match
set vote_allow_nextmap "0" 		// vote to skip this map
set vote_allow_referee "0" 		// vote a player to ref level
set vote_allow_shuffleteamsxp "0"	// shuffles players by their EXP to even up skills
set vote_allow_swapteams "0" 		// swap the teams around
set vote_allow_friendlyfire "0" 	// vote to allow/disallow team damage
set vote_allow_timelimit "0" 		// vote to change timelimit
set vote_allow_warmupdamage "0" 	// vote to allow/disallow damage in warmup
set vote_allow_antilag "0" 		// vote to (dis)enable antilag code
set vote_allow_balancedteams "0" 	// vote to force equal player numbers (or not to)

cheers mate, most helpful :slight_smile:

still, shouldn’t a ref’s vote override any other?

I agree with the ref’s part, it simply doesn’t work in ET.

Going by the OSP docs in RtCW, a referee should be able to:

  • Call a vote and have it automatically pass
  • F1/F2 on a called vote and have it automatically pass/fail depending on his/her vote.

An admin/referee in a public server can get kickvoted off, and there’s nothing he/she can do about it, can’t even force a vote.

Stupid SD breaking something else that should work already, like gibbing, medic/ammo pack throwing, etc.

Yes, had those votes happen to me sometimes, though most people on my server does know me and votes no, but I was wondering, since one is admin, and have rcon access, is there any way to cancel a running vote via any server console command ? (Yes, I’m a bit new to administering :moo: )

(O2.iceman) #6

No, not via rcon commands.

You can make yourself a referee (by setting up a referee password), and the referee is SUPPOSED to be able to cancel a vote simply by voting no, or making a vote pass simply by voting yes, but that’s the problem, it doesn’t work.

I’ve emailed rhea about it, but no reply. I’m guessing he’s not in charge for bugfixes anyway, even if they were part of OSP for RtCW.

I’m guessing we’re gonna have to wait until these bugs are fixed as part of bani or shrub.
