sv_hostname not working like i want

[L3onheart]

Ok, so i only have RCON, and I don't have direct access to the machine

 

I had to change the sv_hostname for a couple of hours then i wanted to change it back as it was, BUT it won't accept spaces.

 

It was supposed to be

 

FRAGLIDER.com - JK2 Pub - v1.04

 

But when i put that, it only stays FRAGLIDER.com, it won't allow spaces

 

For now I have to relay on underscores ( _ ) to fill in for the spaces.

 

How do i put spaces?

The console strips out quotes. That's also the reason it's impossible to kick players with spaces in their name without clientkick. I'd assume that the sv_hostname is set in the server.cfg (or whatever file was used). If that's the case, just /rcon rconpass exec server.cfg That will restart the server with whatever settings are present in the config...including the original sv_hostname. Enjoy.

Thanks, works perfectly

or you can just enclose the sv_hostname in quotes in the console..

I donot know why, but I've found tht I can change my host name( spaces, colors, and all, with quotes), through RCON if i use SET inplace of SETA. of course I do have to go back and correct the server.cfg later, but it does work "on the fly".
