Private Clients Question

Recommended Posts

Ok I know how to setup the private cliens and the password for them but this is my problem.

 

Can you join the server as a private client BEFORE it is full. If I use this command right now I can only join as a private client when the server is full.

 

I want to join, and have two others join, as private clients at any time, even when the server is empty.

 

If this can be done please post back to me asap. Thanks!:D

 

P.S. I am running 1.04 with Jedimod.

Of course you can. When you join with the private client password (and are the first private client) you are player 0. Here is a snippit from my status log. I am player 0 here. I joined my server that had 3 people on it, and was not full. There were still 6 available slots

If u create private slots - how do you enter the password? Is it the same as connecting to a completely private server? What about if you use All Seeing Eye?

 

Also - If u connect using a password for a private slot, what happens if all private slots are filled in? Does that mean u cant connect or do u join a public slot?

 

I hope that makes sense - Hope someone can help me.

Ok you connect to the private slot with the private server password. So lets say that you have 2 private slots. The password is <mom>. You have 8 reg slots and 2 private slots.

 

If you connect by using the password <mom> then you get into a private slot. You can connect with this pass even if the server is empty.

 

Lets say you gave that pass to four people. The first two can connect as private and the other two will need to connect as a regular client.

 

Hope that helps.

Yes, that is why you can't have private slots on a private server. there is only one cvar for the password.
