Multiplayer servers

IT WORKED IT WORKED WOOOHOOOO!!! :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: I just basically told them what you've told me; type the command and my IP address and now we're playing thank you sssooooo much again!!! There's no sleeping for me and my friends tonight :lol: :lol:

Glad to hear it. If you get the port forwarding working, you can make it public later too.

Yes definitely I'll be working on it And if I can make it, you're always welcome in my server when you're available If everything goes well, we'll be like 7 people in the same game and there's gonna be enough room for 9 more players :lol:

So there's only one more question to ask for now; how can we add some bots? :lol: what are the adding and the kicking commands? I know I'm asking too much and I don't really want to bother you with all these questions but promise; it'll be the last question for a while :silly:

The command "addbot" adds a bot, but you have to be logged in as an administrator of your server to do that. What I recommend is to open the location where you installed Nerf ArenaBlast (usually C:\Program Files\Atari\Nerf) and open the System folder. Then open the Nerf.ini file with a text editor. You want to adjust a couple of settings, so find all of these settings and set them as shown:

bMultiPlayerBots=True
bUseRecommendedBotCount=True
bUseRecommendedBotCountOnline=True
bUseBotRebalance=True

In future versions, I'm adding these as menu items so they're not so hard to adjust. But here is an explanation for now:

bMultiPlayerBots: Completely enables or disables bots in multiplayer games you create
bUseRecommendedBotCount: Lets the map tell the game what the recommended amount of players is for that map (in singleplayer)
bUseRecommendedBotCountOnline: Lets the map tell the game what the recommended amount of players is for that map (in multiplayer)
bUseBotRebalance: When a player leaves or joins, a bot will fill their place or be removed for the sake of game balance.

thank you, thank you and thank you again I'll be waiting for the update

Hi all, I run the NET247 (Melb AU) server which is now based on the Gold Coast.

I'll update it to run the CP version tonight, and enable bots.
