These commands are used by server administrators.

To setup remote console access to the server, onthe server create a new plain text document in \admin\ called default.cfg and enter the following text into the new file:

Save the file, and start the server. Now you can access the server remotely by using the following commands from a client:

rcon login [YourPassword] - Use this command to login to the server.

rcon users - This command lists all the users connected to the server. Very similar to admin.listPlayers

rcon exec [command name] - Replace with a console command you would like to execute on the server. For example: rcon exec admin.kickPlayer 3

Exit - Quits the game to desktop.

DICE arbeitet an Kommando-Konsole

Im offiziellen Blog hat sich DICE-Entwickler
Mikael Kalms
zu Wort gemeldet und den Status der Arbeiten geschildert. Demnach wurde die Frostbite Engine bisher nicht für PC-Spiele genutzt, weshalb es neben einer sehr rudimentären Serverkonsole für Entwickler bisher noch keine erweiterten Tools zur Administration gibt. Zurzeit wird deshalb an der Umsetzung einer Kommando-Konsole gearbeitet, die als Remote Admin Interface umgesetzt wird. Dabei orientieren sich die Schweden an den Konsolenkommandos für Battlefield 2.

Kein Schnick-Schnack

Wie Kalms in seinem Beitrag betont, wird das Interface über einen Netzwerkport auf dem Game-Server erreichbar sein und die wichtigsten Grundfunktionen enthalten. Das Tool wird damit überschaubar bleiben. Der Entwickler betont dabei, dass die Community hier einen viel besseren Job machen wird als die Entwickler. Schaut man auf die Entwicklung von Heroes, wäre es nicht verwunderlich wenn die Ranked Server Partner eigene Tools entwickeln. Vielleicht entscheiden sie sich aber auch für ein Communityprojekt.

BFBC2 Remote Recon in Arbeit

Eines dieser Projekte ist Bad Company 2 Remote Rcon, das vom eingangs erwähnten
TheDevilOnLine
entwickelt und bereits auf den Servern von Combat Testing zum Einsatz kommt. Für das Tool existiert bereits die erste Version eines Interface und wie der Entwickler jüngst auf seiner Website mitgeteilt hat, besteht auch telefonischer Kontakt mit DICE. Die Entwickler haben wie auch im Blogpost verlauten lassen, dass am Protokoll noch gearbeitet wird. Die Entwicklung des Tools behalten wir deshalb für euch im Auge. Wer sich selbst informieren möchte, folgt dem Entwickler bei Twitter.
