| Variable |
Description |
| Save Console Log |
Any command that is sent to the
server or data that is received from the server will
be logged in a file called rconconsole.log when this
option is selected. You can change the name of the logfile
in the text field provided. |
| Save Password On Exit |
Allows you to save your password
on exit. Saves entering it again when loading ServerScan.
This option can be disabled by an RKF. |
| Execute Local Config On Gametype
Changes |
If enabled, when the user alters
the gametype through the menu system a local editable
config file will be executed instead of the default in-built
settings. These config's can be found within the ServerScan
install directory under the Server Config's directory.
This option can be disabled by an RKF. |
| Execute Remote Server Config On
Gametype Changes |
Similar to the above variable
except instead of executing a local config file a config
file on the server will be run using the exec command.
This is more secure as server bound configs can not be
altered easily by other Clan Members and there is no
need to distribute the server configs every time you
make a change as they are stored centrally. This is the
recommended way of using ServerScan. The configs must
be named correctly! See the Server Configs directory
under the ServerScan installation path for an example
of the naming convention used. This option can be disabled
by an RKF. |
| Rotate Server Log Daily |
When ServerScan see's a day change
a command will be sent to rotate to the servers log file.
If PunkBuster is in use this log file will also be rotated
at the same time. This feature prevents large unusable
log files from being created if your server is very busy.
This feature will only work if polling is enabled. If
you have an RKF loaded the RKF must have the option Server
Enabled selected also. |
| Alert Me When Players Name Is
Requesting An Admin |
If a player on your server changes
their name to anything containing the word "admin" on
a status refresh a siren will be sounded. For example
should a player have the name AdminNeeded you will be
alerted. You can then react accordingly. |
| Increase Player List Size |
If you run a large capacity server
you may want to select this as it increases the player
list size making it easy to manage them. |
| Poll At Start-up |
On starting ServerScan it will
begin polling your server straight away. |
| From Name |
This is the name that appears
at the end of all player messages sent to the server.
You cannot turn this feature off! |
| Announce Admin Online |
If you tick this box every so
often ServerScan will announce that you are online to
the players on the server. If you also have "Alert Me
When Players Name Is Requesting An Admin" ticked, along
with announcing that you are online and scanning the
server it will also tell the players that to get your
attention they should change their name to AdminNeeded. |
| Load at Windows Start-Up |
Does what it says on the tin.
If you tick this option when loading Windows ServerScan
will automatically start. |
| Automatically Load Selected RKF |
If you have ServerScan loading
at Windows start-up you can also get it to load an RKF
automatically for you. Saves a little time. |
