[Newbies-Tutorial]Mani Admin Tutorial

[Destorion]

Hello MxC Members. I found a Tutorial while i was exploring The net. This Tutorial called Mani Admin Tutorial. This tutorial includes:

 

Setting up admin

Talking

Using the Admin Panel

Using The console

Promotions/demotions

Being Unfair

Useful Commands

Test Time!

 

So Let's start with first content-Step:

 

Setting up an admin

 

When you first get admin commands, whatever rank you are, you need to be able to quickly access them.

 

Now, in console (you can get to console by pressing ` (if that does not work do this: go to Options -> keyboard -> Advanced -> then check 'enable developer console'))

Now type the following:

 

 bind "." "admin"

 

This code means that whenever you press '.', it will run the command 'admin', which opens the admin panel. You can replace '.' with whatever key you want.

 

bind "#" "admin

                   

                    Or

bind "=" "admin"

 

Now Let's Go to second Content-Step:

 

Talking

 

This is easy.

To talk in green, press what button you use to talk (normally y) then do the following:

 

@ <message>

 

To use admin private say, to say to one person only, do the following in your chat bar:

 

@@ <Player name> <message>

 

To send a message to the middle of all of the players screens, do the following in your chat bar:

 

@@@ <message>

 

To use admin only chat, press the button you use to talk to your team (usualy u) then do the same as if you were talking in green to everyone.

 

@ <message>

 

Using The Admin Panel

 

When you press your key bound to open the admin panel (see setting up admin) a box will appear. This is simmilar to the box that appears during a map vote, or using any vote commands (votekick, voteban ect).

 

You navigate it by using the number buttons (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0).

 

Example:

 

If you want to kick a player called... lobe, then you do this:

 

Press your admin button (see setting up admin) or type admin in console

Then you will see several options, depending on your rank. Let us assume you are the lowest rank.

You would press 1 on your keyboard to go into player management. You would then press 1 to go into kick player.

Then, you would do autokick by name, by pressing the corrosponding number on your keyboard.

 

Then simply find the right player, and press his number!

This can be helpful if you cant kick in console because the player has strange letters in his name that you cannot type.

 

Note: Sometimes (happens with me) when you press an option the panel just disapears. If this happens, jsut start again!

Note2: If a mapvote comes on while you are in admin panel, it will close and you will have to do what you are doing again.

 

Using The Console

 

Using the console can be a fast way to excecute commands.

Firstly, you have to know the syntax and command to do anything.

If you want to kick, you would type ma_kick. If you want to ban, you would type ma_ban, and so on.

 

If you just type in ma_ban, with nothing else, it will tell you the syntax and what you need to type.

For a ban , you have to do ma_ban <name> <length, 0 for a perm ban>

 

The #all command is a powerful one, so be careful.

As you may guess, the #all command runs the command on all of the players.

So you dont want to type ma_ban #all 0! this would ban everyone for ever!

 

But it can be a quick way to do somthing. You could give everyone C4, by typing ma_give #all weapon_c4. this gives everyone a c4!

Or, ma_beacon #all.

 

Promotions-Demotions

 

If you get demoted down past the last rank, then you are no longer admin!

You can be promoted by doing a good job, being nice, being fair and being the best admin!

 

You can promote admins three levels lower than yours one rank up, and other way around - degradate admins two levels lower than yours one rank down - please report your decisions to rank General or higher , and you take responsibility for that admin's later actions.

 

Being Fair

 

Be reasonable. Warn before taking actions. Spectate people before taking a more perminent course of action (bans over 10 mins).

 

Offence noticed -> Check to see if accidental I(if tk/ta) -> If accidental see if it happens again, then warn.

-> If on purpose, warn. if it happens again, take some action (mute/slay), if it

happens again, ban/kick.

 

Useful Commands

 

Here are a couple of 'passive' commands. These do not effect the gameplay, but give you infomation about a certain player:

 

Ma_statsme [Target]

This gives you the stats of the target, just as if they had typed statsme themselves

 

Ma_session [target]

Take a guess

 

Test Time!

 

Before you go and reak havok on the server with your new powers, take a guess at what these commands do:

 

Ma_kick #all

 

Ma_ban lobe 10

 

ma_beacon lobe

 

Ma_slap lobe 99

 

ma_slap #all

 

ma_give #all weapon_knife

 

ma_acceptvote

 

Now, how would you do this:

 

Ban someone in console for 10 mins?

 

Ban someone with a weird name for an hour?

 

Make everyone a beacon?

 

kick lobe?

 

Note: you will not be able to do all of these on the server until you reach a higher rank

 

This is the end of Newbie Tutorial.
