ServerUtils

What is it ?

Serverutils is a collection of tools that I made to administer my UT server. The UT server is rented and I run the Unreal Badlands mod on it. Unfortunately I don't have access to the commandline to (re)start the server. This can make some things difficult to accomplish. Therefore I made the tools listed below. Download these from the downloads page.

BTW: Sorry for the uninspired names.

MutatorAdder

This SERVERACTOR adds mutators that are listed in the UT.ini file to the game. It is primarily meant for people that run servers and cannot update the commandline by themselves, but there might be other uses possible. MutatorAdder supports up to 50 mutators

ForceGametype

This mutator forces the game to switch to a specified gametype. I made it because I don't have acces to my servers commandline and it starts Deathmatch by default, but I want it to start with the Wanted gametype from the Badlands mod. This mutator can solve that problem.

BotAdder

This mutator adds a number of bots to the game. The number of bots is based on the ideal playercount that is specified in the map. If a range is given (like 6-10) the value in between will be chosen (8 in this example). For teamgames always even teams will be used. There will never be more bots added than specified by "Minimum Total Players".

Status

Last updated August 24th

All tools I needed until now are finished and available for download. If there is a demand for UT2003 versions of these tools I can make them.

Already Done:

Made the mutators (not too much to say, they were so easy to code)

Still To Do:

Implement requested features.

This site is only meant as an archive and replacement for my old site at http://home.ict.nl/~mweterin/unreal/. No Unreal development will be done for the coming time (maybe when UT3 comes out).
