Installation:

Quote:

Install the SteamWorks extention.
Download there the latest plugin version.
To install the sourcemod plugin just merge the addons/sourcemod located in GameServer/ folder with yours.
Move the files inside the WebServer/ folder to your webserver.
Edit the config.php file according to your needs.
Set your motd.txt to redirect to the php script.
Edit the auth token in both the config.php and the GameServer config cfg/plugin.HexRedirect.cfg

ConVars:

Quote:

sm_redirect_method -> Its value can be either steam or ip, and must match the one in the WebServer config
sm_redirect_website -> Full URL to your redirect.php
sm_redirect_authtoken -> Value of the auth string set in the WebServer config, required to make POST requests

Notes:

Quote:

The plugin configuration is located in sourcemod/configs/hexredirect.cfg
The patter is "command" "url"
Make sure to include the full url with the scheme as well(https or http).
The only cvar is that must match the PHP Script value. It can be either steam or ip
If you want to reload the config just use the sm_rredirect command!
The parameters are:

Code:

{STEAMID} -> Replaced with the player's steamid2 (eg. STEAM_1:0:138675850) {STEAMID64} -> Replaced with player's steamid64 (eg. 76561198237617428) {IP} -> Replaced with player's ip address (eg. 127.0.0.1)

Example configuration:

PHP Code:


		
			
"HexRedirect"
{
    "google"    "https://www.google.com/"
    "!plugins" "https://forums.alliedmods.net/forumdisplay.php?f=123"
    "zombie" "steam://connect/127.0.0.1:27015" //Your server IP, this will make the player join there
}

How this works:

Quote:

When a user types a command that is registered in the cfg his ip/steamid is sent as POST request to the webserver and it will set the url, whenver the user tryies to access the page it will check if his ip/steamid matches the one saved in the db, if so it will be redirected to the set url, otherwise it will be sent to the homepage.
When the user types that are listed in the cfg his ip/steamid is saved in the database, and when a user opens the motd page, it will check if the given IP/SteamID has any url to be redirected, if not it will just send to the set homepage.

Note that the PHP and the GameServer configurations must match, and if you the steam method is choose he will be required to login in, however his session his stored so he'll need to login once per session.

I know that is could not be the most reliable way (especially if two player have the same IP), but it's the only the I could figure without having the user to copy-paste the url.
