Re: Auto Join Control
 

I was originally building this functionality for my CS:S team balancer but decided it was useful on its own.

It currently only controls joins from spectators or unassigned players. I can make control joins at other times as well if that would be helpful.

NOTE: The CS:S Team Balance plugin has similar features which can conflict if you try to use them together.

Can you please add an immunity flag?

Re: Team Join Control
 

Good idea, I will add that today.

I think I have at least a few more in me. :twisted:

Re: Team Join Control
 

May I suggest the following?

Upon the "jointeam" command do to the first person to do it in the map a randint 0/1 if 0 then T if 1 then CT (or vice versa), after that alternate. (Forcing the team, not just the menu). Then store the person's team, so if they go spectator, and try to change team, it forces themselves back onto the team they were on.

Re: Team Join Control
 

I am doing something like this in the CS:S Team Balancer. Except instead of being random and locking it looks at existing team sizes and win/loss conditions. Essentially it stops people from joining the winning team unless it is smaller.

I could add something similiar to the DOD:S Balancer if anyone would like.

I could add something to this plugin that optionally forces the team to be locked for the duration of your session if that would be useful.

Re: Team Join Control
 

Yeah, do the same for dods balancer, but make sure to provide a cvar to disable it.

Re: Team Join Control
 

Will do.
