Title: Is it possible to configure the server to autoswitch?
Post by: Kuschizzza on Monday, November 25, 2013, 16:05:22 PM
Hello everyone.

Is it possible to set up the auto switch function? I mean all team players should be switch after x.x (rounds) to Defence or Assault.

How can I do that?

I've installed my Americas Army Server on Linux with Assist 2.5

No.  This isn't AA4.
You can do this manually, and not all players will cooperate.
Take auto-balance OFF, post a message saying you're changing teams and will kick whomever stays, and swap everybody before the match round ends.  Wait until the round starts with everyone switched to turn autobalance back on if you so wish.  The auto-balance option implemented in AA2.5 just throws you on one team or the other when you come in to make the numbers even, and will move you it seems like based on length of play and score.
All in all, it's not a great idea.  Some people prefer one side or the other and will come to hate you if you switch them often.

Or not play on you're server, if being swapped all the time

I would think that this is possible, maybe not in its current state but it might be something that the assist developers could help with. Because this does work when its in tournament mode, maybe they could make a mod that allows it to happen outside of that mode?

That's what I've been thinking of as well. I think it is a great thing to have people swap sides half-time. This way you get a bit of both sides every match
