Springie the AutoHost

[Licho]

But you were right - fixed error in error reporting error.php

Just to reiterate:

I restored springie stats and smurfs system

set stats url to:

http://springie.licho.eu/

and delete "do_not_delete_me.xml" in springie folder and restart it.

I figured that much, but it couldn't access error.txt

Just a quick question, is there different configs I can load?
Say I wanted 10k unit/met/energy and a different mod, is there anything I can do so I only have to do one thing, instead of changing things individually?

Just annoying when I forget to change met/energy an such, or the mod.

You can create presets and you can also set it to automaticly start preset when map changes.

That FAQ entry about OpenGL support on ATI cards in Vista is like 14 to 16 months out of date by the way. I went ahead and created a wiki account and I'm going to remove it.

Bug:
after doing !smurfs (i forget the name)
bot flag: true
[19:50:18] <> Flooding detected - you have exceeded maximum allowed chat message size (1024 bytes). Your message has been ignored.

Feature Request:
Springie bothers bot owners about the lack of a bot flag and points them here:

for me springie behaves very strange since a few days. it often has a spring window open but shows a yellow icon, which normally means that the game hasnt already started. also there are players listed in springie, but looking into tasclient shows, that these players are in other battles or are even gone. looks like it hung up completely.
do others have this problems, too? any suggestions?
thanks

Its probably related to tasserver going crazy..
Does rehost fix it for you?

[caldera]

normally i restart the computer but it happens again a few games later...

feature request:

make balance/cbalance ignore the "Teamspec" faction that can be found in CA

may want to treat it as spec for votes

auto kicking this new spectator type may result in a problem where the person won't be able to join and change faction

make start ignore not ready teamspecs

[KDR_11k]

I don't think there's a way to mark a faction as out-of-play. Hardcoding mod-specific stuff isn't a good idea.

[caldera]

regarding the many main-taspring-server problems we had last time, would it be possible that springie connects to alternative backup servers like tasclient does?

[Licho]

Yes, i will add that to my todo

[Hoi]

is it possible to host 2 different games on one computer?

[Licho]

yes
