[DoDS] Move Player to Spectator

[Cain]

I use MM and SM in my DODS Server.

I would like to add to the Admin Menu the ability to switch player teams and to switch an AFK player to Spectate.

Can someone help me with this ??

I found this (below), but it does not work in my server, perhaps I am doing something wrong when I place this text into the Admin Menu Custom txt ?

"Move Player to Spec"
{
"cmd" "sm_team #1 1"
"1"
{
"type" "player"
"title" "Player:"
}

You can use DoD TeamManager Source (TMS) that integrates
a menu with useful player actions (like team switching etc.)
into the SM Menu with it's own category if you use the included
"Player- / Team Menu Addon" :wink:

Thank you Feuer !!

Questions.

I looked at this before but did not see a section/command where it says that an Admin can move a player to another team, or to spectator. Do I need to load the plugin to see those options?

Also, is there a setting to move an AFK player to spectate, then if he sits there for a certain amount of time and the server reaches X players he gets kicked ??

I don't mind AFK spectators unless we are getting full, and I also don't mind AFK players unless they are making a team unbalanced, AFK spectators are fine.

Hey Cain,

yes and AFK Kicker is included as well "AFK Mananger Addon" that operates
exactly like you described it.

There's no console commands at all, the plugin package is completely
menu driven.

Here's some screenshots of the menus and other features so you get
an idea of what is included:

Can I use just the player team menu addon as a standalone plugin ??

All I want to do is enable my Admins to move players from one team to another and to move a player from one team into Spectator.

Nothing else.... Or should I just break down and install the plugin and all the add-ons ?? :) I'm worried about the CPU loading and over head and stability of the full plugin and all the addons, perhaps I don't need to be?

TIA

You don't have to worry about CPU usage, but if you still do,
just install the base plugin and the Player- / Team Menu Addon.

The Addons are independent from each other, but the base plugin
is mandatory.

Thank you !!
