Back to Battlefield 1942

Something I havent noticed addressed

The autoexec.con file has to be altered so there arent any 60 second respawn times or people getting booted for tk'ing. (the new tk-punish or forgive mode, i forget which is on by default, and we dont want either mode here) Is that file in the files section? If you need one set up correctly for match play, ill hook you guys up if you wish..
if you TK u should be kicked from server.
However the punish system can be abused. I've been kicked from my own server for accidentally killing someone before.. and the sad part was I was top on server, let alone my team... pissed me off.

Anyway, that was off topic. Morgan is suggesting the use of this for MATCH play not PUB play. The TK punish system isn't needed during a match because the players on each side realize that the TK isn't intentional.

Just add the following lines to your ServerSettings.con file:

game.serverHitIndication 1
game.serverTKPunishMode 0

Both of these are left out of the default ServerSettings.con file and are pretty important in match play.
It's not just that, we found if you dont set the penalty times for all aspects of it off, or to zero, it can still happen even with the mode turned off wolven. Same goes for the kick number. Turning tkpunish mode to 0, only turns on tk forgive mode.
hmmmm, all I did was set the TK mode to 0 and I haven't had any kicks or changes to spawn time in my server...

I noticed when I first added those lines I put in game.setServerTKPunishMode 0. All I had to do was change it to game.serverTKPunishMode 0 to get everything working properly. At least I thought it was working properly, I'll double check.

It happens totally randomly unless those value's are set to zero. The dedicated server for bf is still not without it's little bug's.
Soon there should be a "TWL" match server config available in the download section.

This should make it easier to keep all the servers equal. All you would have to do would be change the name and password areas of the server config and drop it in.

You guys are dead wrong on this one.
Read the 1.31 dedicated server readme, this is what it says:

-Implemented TK Forgive and Punishment system.
By default, players have to wait 1 extra spawn wave for every TK they commit and when they have made 5 TK's that are not forgiven they will get kicked from the server.
By default, the server is in punish mode.
There are 2 modes:
1) If you are killed by a teammate, you can forgive the killer. The forgive options expires when you die again (auto-punish)
2) If you are killed by a teammate, you can punish the killer. The punish options expires when you die again. (auto-forgive)
Admin Console Commands:
admin.spawnDelayPenaltyForTK
The number of extra spawn waves applied (1.0 = wait 1 spawn wave, 1.5 = wait 1.5 spawn wave.. and so on)
admin.banPlayerOnTKKick <0 or 1>
When set to 1, players are also banned when kicked for TK
admin.nrOfTKToKick
The number of punished TK's before being kicked
admin.tkPunishMode <0 or 1>
0 : Punish Mode - Players are punished by default, until the victim forgives the TK
1 : Forgive Mode - Players are forgiven by default, until the victim punishes the TK

Basically, you NEED to use admin.tkPunishMode 1, NOT ZERO.
0 = auto-punish, 1 = auto-forgive.
Note that forgiven TKs give no spawn penalty, and wont get you kicked from the server, so the other settings listed wont even matter.

ginc, you can't turn off the new forgive punishment system, therefore you change the value's..

admin.banPlayerOnTKKick 0
admin.nrOfTKToKick 0
admin.spawnDelayPenaltyForTK 0

now player's dont get banned, have an unlimited number of tk's until they get kicked, and have no spawndelay for tk's..

If you have those value's set to that, there wont ever be an issue, on forgive or punish mode.
those commands will work in a ServerAutoExec.con file?
