boki Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) v54 ET fellows! Ever wanted to make your admin work easier? To bring some standard procedures everyone are familiar with and are easy to recognize? Well, I maybe just did one step forward to this. Goal(s): to make admin work more easier and efficient, as to bring some quality assurance to it. Solution: make standard messages and procedures everyone are aware of (with the time). Implementation proposal: Writing standard messages and apply them through script (to ease the workload and procedure appliance). Using them in standard procedure so everyone can use them in the same manner. In order for this to work and bring the wanted full effect, admins must agree on standard messages, as their content and format User base: this script is intended for ET admins only (lvl 4 and up). However, opinions of experienced ET gamers is welcome. Proposed method of work: each admin should use 4 types of messages. The message types are: [ Info Messages ] - selects Info message, 1st warning (inform players something has to be done) [ Request Messages ] - selects Request msg, 2nd warning (inform players you are requesting it now) [ Warning Messages ] - selects Warning msg, 3rd warning (inform players that next action will be taken by force) [ Custom Messages ] - your own custom msg you want to apply, but not covered by standard messages However, once these messages are standardized, it is forbidden to alter the messages and scripts. Admin may only alter the keys he wishes to bind, since this would be very inconvenient to enforce. How to apply the script: bind MAIN script to a key of your choice. Alter other keys to your choice. There is one rule you must follow: each message, regarding the type, must be bound to the same key. An example: if u bind Info message "Even teams!" to ALT key, you must do the same for request and warning type messages also. All admins should use the same message content and format, otherwise there is not much point in this. After a while, users will quickly learn to visually recognize the messages and how to respond to them, since they are consistent. Important: this is proposal only, yet to be discussed and eventually adopted. So far, players respond well to my way of work.

EDIT: doing this, i had a solution in mind that will work for every mod out there, as the original ET ... if it is possible to put in vsays that only admins can use on every server, even better.

Shana Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 This could be included in new quick say menu. The file would be in fa menu.pk3 and admins would use bind to open quicksay menu. Don't know if it's working 100% but going to test it soon. I'm saying about quicksay cause admins'd have many binds to remember and we rather don't want to misclick and print wrong message. I really like your idea but most of those are taken care of by fa quick say and some by lvl2+? with !teams !even, at least on noquarter #1. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boki Posted March 11, 2016 Author Share Posted March 11, 2016 I made some changes into the script, which are more useful on jay mod than the one above: // Fearless Aassassins Community - ADMIN BINDS - config by boki wait bind KP_PGUP "vstr demo_rec" // start or stop demo recording set demo_rec "vstr recordOn" set recordOn "record;echo ^7[ ^6Recording started ^7];set demo_rec vstr recordOff" set recordOff "stoprecord;set demo_rec vstr recordOn" bind KP_RIGHTARROW "screenshotJPEG;echo ^6 ScreenshotJPEG" // Take a screenshot in JPEG format bind KP_UPARROW "condump console.txt;^6Saved to a console.txt" // save tekst from console to file bind KP_DEL "scores" // Show scores bind KP_ENTER "vstr msg_type" // Select message type - Info, Request, Warning or Custom set msg_type "vstr msg_type_cust" // Default message type set msg_type_cust "exec binds-admin-cust.cfg;set msg_type vstr msg_type_info" set msg_type_info "exec binds-admin-info.cfg;set msg_type vstr msg_type_req" set msg_type_req "exec binds-admin-req.cfg;set msg_type vstr msg_type_warn" set msg_type_warn "exec binds-admin-warn.cfg;set msg_type vstr msg_type_cust" echo ^7[^5 ADMIN BINDS ^2executed ^7] 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barn!e Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 You cannot add admin only Vsays without NOQ or etadmin or similar. You can leave them out of the menu, but anyone who opens PK3 will be able to see them and use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader RedBaird Posted March 24, 2016 Leader Share Posted March 24, 2016 I keep telling Boki on the servers that he has the nicest "you killed me!" rotating binds that I have ever seen. They make people want to kill him again, just to read the next one! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
