make sure you have webadmin setup and know how to use that, because its really handy for alot of easy stuff.
For changing things ingame or in the console of webadmin try the following.

well you can set everything in the ini file by using the console

beside that the only thing that you basically need to know is

adminlogin username password
admin kick playernameorplayernumber
admin kickban playernameorplayernumer
admin resetgame
admin pause
admin servertravel mapname
adminlogout

but if you just login as admin you can force to kick someone by placing a kickvote on him
or you can force a mapswitch by just voting on the map
or pause the game by pressing the pause key on your keyboard.

only resetgame basically got no way to get it by default voting.


for changing things in the ini

say you want to change the max player amount and dont want to restart the server to make ini changes. Find yourself an old redorchestra.ini you have left on your desktop and find the location

[Engine.GameInfo]
GoreLevel=2
MaxSpectators=2
MaxPlayers=32

So its under Engine.Gameinfo
and the command is maxplayers

to set it use:
Code:
admin set Engine.Gameinfo MaxPlayers 44
if you you want to get 44 players that is.

The change is instant and will not force you to reboot your server :).

(when you use the webadmin console instead of the ingame console you wont have to put admin infront of the commands)

make sure that webadmin is enabled to enable webadmin change the redorchestra.ini of the server and restart or type the following ingame :)
login as admin
Code:
adminlogin username password
then type
Code:
admin set Engine.Gameinfo AccessControlClass XAdmin.AccessControlIni
the password will be Admin Admin so your old admin account could be invalidated
make sure webadmin is enabled
Code:
admin set Uweb.WebServer bEnabled True
and that webadmin port will be whatever you want it to be
Code:
admin set Uweb.WebServer ListenPort WEBPORTHERE
(default port is 8075)

after this webadmin will be active to connect to it
type the following in your web browser:
http://IPOFTHESERVER:WEBPORTHERE/ServerAdmin/

well make sure you have webadmin because you wont remember these commands its just an example. Webadmin under the default tabs is the easiest anyway to add a password


Code:
admin set Engine.AccessControl Gamepassword PASSWORDHERE

i think that if you dont fill in anything at the password place it will put a blank pass there. I've never tried this command ingame but it should work.

webadmin is a rcon tool, its with the game by default.

I told you how to enable it already just read that first reply.
