Admins disconnected on mapchange

/bin/sh · **Author**

Hello!

My server is for large internet cafe and i must use username+password for admins and priveleged clients.

For example, one from my users.ini:
"Atmns" "hiddenpassword" "bcdeiju" "a"

And problem... After mapchange all admins and privleged users are disconnecting from server and they need to re-enter password via setinfo.

I am using latest version of CS1.6, amxmodx, metamod.

Before AMXX i used Adminmod and everythink worked fine with same way...

Thats not an error in AMXX. Your admins need to use 'setinfo _pw hiddenpassword' (Without the ' ) in their config.cfg

Why? Adminmod works nice without this.

As i see problem is when amx resets all info about admins after mapchange... why?

"a" Kicks players with the wrong password on connection. Since each map change is a new connection, your admin is being kicked becasue the wrong password.

We did some testing.

If:
1) Player enters setinfo _pw password
2) Player connected
3) Player kicked on mapchange

and...

If:
1) Player enters setinfo _pw password
2) Player connected
3) Player enters setinfo _pw password while playing
4) Player DIDN't got on next mapchange

In second way player need to enter password at every map while playng to avoid disconnecting.

Why? It looks like information about setinfo is dropped after connecting. Adminmod doesn't drop password at this state.

How to fix or hack it?

i have a great idea.

we should create an array of usernames ands passwords of currently connected people. so, when someone joins with password, we should add it to this array, then clear setinfo _pw AND right before map ends we should take all passes back to users console. for safety we need to clear it on connect (before adding to array). it's simple. but i'm very poor in working with arrrays in amxx..

any help on this?
