Server Newbie Admin Question

[evilpikka]

Hello,

I am a Co-Admin on a server that our Clan leader rents.
We are using the web interface to configure the server, but as our main admin is very bad in computers , i try to do the server stuff for him and the web interface seems rather easy to use.

My question now:
I wanted to get some bots on the maps without adding them manually on every map change and found the ?minplayers=x command line parameter.
It works when i put it in the managment consoles, but on map change the bots are gone.
How can i get the bots being always on the map with the ?minplayers variable?

Thank you for your help

Load the command in the URL for the MapChange in the Change Map-Tab/Menu in the WebAdmin. You can even set this order in the RO2Server.bat for having them in all the time, for example when your Server was shut down or something else. It`s really useful. I think you should make use of it soon since you have found your personallly perfect settings for bots and in the future maybe even mutators.
Tell your Main Admin please something about the ServerEx-Mutator. There you can easily add a specific number of bots to the Server without editing the .bat . It has a few more important options than WebAdmin have.

Even if you add the parameter for bots in the start command line of server, each time you change the map in the webadmin interface you MUST add the parameter in the Additional URL variables ?minplayers=xx . As said, if you install ServerEx mutator on the server, it can always add the number of bots you configure at changemap after the mutator is loaded. here it is: http://forums.tripwireinteractive.com/showthread.php?t=84401 More options are available in the mutator but you can only use the bot functionality
