zadmin

overview

zadmin is an admin mod for tribes originally written by rated z (eric lanz) and upgraded by me (andrew). my versions are bastard versions of his original script coupled with a somehwat extreme overhaul of tribes default scripts.vol.

also included are a few ported gametypes (beta) w/ a few fixes and admin functions corrected for zadmin.

just unvol scripts.vol to see all the inner workings, im not hiding any suspect functions in a compressed, unreadable vol. if you think otherwise, you obviously don't have the mental capacity to read

fsb-ao made the ~~timestamper~~ and iplogging code btw..

features

Active Server functions for various events (Flag/Kill/Item), to help reduce client side message parsing (View example client-side active script)
Modified scoring based on project.stat (Out for now)
User definable admin levels
Global muting by name/ip on join, and from in-game
Failsafe inventory spam protection (so far)
Timestamped admin and connection logs (FSB-AO)
Multiple level join password management (Default zAdmin)
AFK daemon to kick inactive players

new in 0.935

Stripped out LastHope, use the new and improved LastHope/mem.dll from lasthope.be or local copy instead. Extract mem.dll & 0.935 zadmin to your Tribes dir and it should be all set up.

new in 0.93++

Detects 1.30 LastHope bypass & hacked mem.dll

new in 0.93

Bananas
Added local message spam protection
Added bitmap name protection
Braindead morons I should ban in the server code can no longer use "return our flag" in global
LastHope SHOULD be more tolerant of people with lossy connections

new in 0.90

LastHope 1.20 support
Server Password drops when the last player leaves the server and is put back on when someone rejoins (I Think)
Pickup Mode is disabled when the last player leaves the server (I Think)

new in 0.80

Anti-Rape option
Anti-Repair option (so players can't ruin pubs by repairing RT and Motion turrets)
MEGA muting (in game only), completely mutes a player
Pickup Mode (server password is set to "pickup" at all times, with overflow kicking in correctly)
Included my T1 Timestamp patch so you can do native timestamping without an external program
Fixed flagskip bug (Sloppy example from Fstat)
0.81 addendum etcetera: anti-skip bug with mission types (thanks to Timalis + BUNNY), admin options..

install

unzip to your tribes directory, zadmin overwrites tribes\console.cs and tribes\base\scripts.vol and add all its config files to tribes\config.

notes

scripts.vol is a pure dedicated server build, it removes ALL the gui code. dont use it on tribes installs you want to play on
config files are only written in the full build, upgrade build is console.cs/scripts.vol only, so it preserves your current settings

new in 0.80:

This is not needed as 0.90xxx comes with the LastHope server executable pre-patched

extract t1_timestamp_patch.exe to your tribes directory (or put tribes.exe and the patch exe in a local dir, then upload tribes.exe when you're done, you get the idea) and run
t1_timestamp_patch Tribes.exe +
this will give tribes the ability to generate its own timestamps.
see prefs.txt in the .zip to see how to set up your server prefs (defaults are used and exported if the value is not set). to leave a value empty, use a space (" ") as tribes will not export variables with empty strings.
