I released the Soldat Admin source code a couple days ago on the home page. All the files can be found here:
http://www.soldat.pl/downloads/soldatadminsrc.zip

Requires Borland Delphi to compile (recommended version 6) and Indy version 8 or 9 (www.indyproject.org).

If you have any problems ask here.

Hooray! I had no problems compiling, and I dont even have Indy so I dont think that part is neccessary, ty for teh source!

Hurraaa! I wish I could code. U.U

wee, go Enesce and make the Ubermultifunctional-shortcutstuffed-andstillhandy-admin tool :D

Let's just leave him alone, and wait. ;]

jeah thats what i needed vor my servermanigin tool, coded in delphi too.
refresh command now i understand it :D

There's a little error in the source code (thanks to KeFear).
I commented the part that sends the password. It's line 170:

///
try
Client.WriteLn(Pass.Text);
except
end;
///

Just uncomment it and it should work fine.

Is there any way to get the spectators' data? As they aren't in the REFRESH packet as far as i know.

Yes they are in the REFRESH packet, their team ID is set to 255, which MM's admin client ignores.

Just change this:

Into this:


Or somthing more optimized...

ah okay, thanks, it works now.

What is SHUTDOWN command for?

When I say SHUTDOWN to server it just stops, but the process is still running, port 23083 is opened. Can I shutdown server (and its process) by command?

It will help me to change game modes like "on the fly". To change game mode I change soldat.ini and then I have to put file "restart" in soldat directory on the server via ftp. There is script which runns every 5 minutes and checks this file "restart" in soldat dir. If it finds this file it kills "soldatserver.exe" process. And soldatserver.exe starts immideatelly (as it is running as service) with new settings.

No, you cannot do this through soldat admin port.

So... What is this command (SHUTDOWN) for?
Michal! It will be very nice to have an opportunity to shutdown (not to stop) the server.

It is supposed to shutdown the server but it doesn't. It closes everything and then there are some threads that are still active, I'll fix it some day.

Is there any command for timed bans? Like if the server kicks and bans someone for high ping, it removes the ban after 15 minutes or something. So, is there a command for that?

Hmm I get errors with this: Client.Writeln(Pass.Text);. It doesn't seem to have Writeln as a variable.

You probably have a different version of Indy, I think I used Indy 8.

So with the source code now available to the public this allows end users such as me to make custom programs/scripts for soldat that we can share with the community?

Knowledge of what is needed just Delphi/Indy?

Thx

As far as I can see, Soldat server works over TCP/IP, which Indy supports, so you can use it with any language Indy is compatible with.

I think only the admin port works on TCP, the game itself uses UDP, but that's not so important.

@sizz0rz, yes, you can use the source code to make better programs for soldat (check my ARSSE for an example - i made it based on mainly the released source code)

But you don't have to use Delphi, you can write it to almost any language.

Thought u said u wouldn't give out the source code. Besides, i may be a game maker, but my program sounds a lot simpler than this....Game maker 5.

This is the admin sourc code.. for the Soldat admin app. not for the game itself :)

Ohhhhh.....I get you now.
