Add chat but in another box like vin mod

Add chat but in another box like vin mod

Making another Box is harder than making the chat :/

Sorry, but I think I'll make it in the same window first.
People don't seem to care that much, and it's a hell lot simpler.

You can choose between the two with commands, and the logs will be the same.

Thank you for the fix  
I have noticed that every non-host human player disconnects after each round ends. Is this a known issue?
The new round will load for me. Players appear in the spectator list, and quickly disconnect one by one. They can apparently rejoin the server right afterwards.

No, this is not known.
I have a suspicion why, though.

Many of these problems appeared in the Tempest Bot, and I solved most of them. Then when re-creating this I missed a few things.

If one of these human clients could post whatever error they get (if any), I'd be grateful. Though I'm betting on "Invalid number of players" because of bots that aren't destroyed correctly.

Does the problem persist if you have no bots?

I went digging, and found the solution I used.

Here, try this.

Huge thanks to you guys for the testing!

How about a V.I.P password.

If you don't know what that is, its when the server is full and when someone tries to join the server when the server is full it asks for a password and if you enter the correct password, it let's you get in while kicking someone currently in the server.

Password is decided by the host.

Also Muse basically described what an rcon is, but the rcons get rcon accessability by putting a password in a console or somewhere.

The V.I.P is possible and even easy.
Rcon is much harder, because I have to let clients be able to send all the commands to the server, which is a lot of work. Unless I send a command string, but that is lag-producing.
I'm not saying it's impossible, just that it has to wait.
I'm more than half-way done with chat, that's going to come very soon.

General Question: Should I add the VIP thing?

[Derpduck]

You need to find a way to determin which player to kick, it got removed from vin mod for it being unfair on pubs

[Jazzy]

I say yes, add VIP, but make it toggleable. Any new additions are good, even chat, as long as they can be turned on/off. Also, I don't know if you saw my earlier suggestion, but I asked if you could have an option to randomize the map rotation. I think it would be a nice feature, as I rarely get to the end of my rotation and play the first maps to frequently.

So..
Randomize the rotation when it's made, at the beginning of the game, or randomize it at any point in the game?

[Kirtan]

If you implement chat, VIP, and rcon I WILL LOVE YOU.

Chat = I use your utility to host forever (add features to kick,ban, etc.)
VIP = AWESOME
rcon = moderation when host is afk



GREAT WORK ORPHEON!

[Orpheon]

Ooook, I'm hoping you're not a guy because if you are, things will get embarrassing  

(add features to kick,ban, etc.)

Eh...., you did read the OP?
Kicking and banning are here since I made the thread, and if you want other features please tell them.

GREAT WORK ORPHEON!

That's what you can call excitement.....



A general update on where I am:

Chat is coded, but I'm stuck on a few bugs that prove hard to solve (details in the Mod Help thread).
I haven't started VIP yet, but I'll add that as soon as I can get chat working, because people seem to want that.
Then we'll look at rcon.
