SCMD 101

THE SCMD SYSTEM

===========================================================================

 

The SCMD interface is used to execute server side commands through a text

based console. SCMD sends commands to the server to control settings from

the hosting client, a remote client or the standalone server. It offers a

generalized user interface that works on all three of these entry points.

On a hosted or remote client, commands are entered through the chat

interface. On the Stand-alone server, commands are entered through the

console interface.

 

To use SCMD, just follow these steps:

 

1. Before launching your server (either hosted or dedicated), set the

"Allow SCMD" option to "Yes" and then specify a password.

2. Launch the server.

3. Type SCMD and press <Enter> on the command line of your dedicated

server, or in the chat interface on a host or client to see a list of

available commands. You will need to scroll up to see the entire list.

4. Log in to the system by typing SCMD followed by the password that you

specified in the host options.

 

Once you have successfully logged in, you can then use any of the other

SCMD commands. Note that only one host or client can be logged into the

system at once. The format for all SCMD commands is:

 

SCMD command [arg1] [...]

 

Example: You are logged into SCMD through a client connected to a

dedicated server, and one of the other players becomes abusive. With SCMD,

you can boot the player through your client like this:

 

Type "SCMD listclients". This will display text similar to the following:

 

Client List format: clientid) [name][ping][ip]

0) [smiley][0][0.0.0.0]

1) [Cheater][80][123.456.789.012]

2) [Player0][120][321.654.987.210]

 

From here, you can type "SCMD bootname Cheater", or "SCMD bootid 1" to

remove the problem player from the server.

 

Then, if the player logs in again and continues to cause trouble, you can

locate his IP address from the client list, and then ban that IP. For

instance, if the IP address was 123.456.789.012, you would ban it by typing

"SCMD addban 123.456.789.012". For a full list of commands, please see the

section below.
