Title: Tournament Mode
Post by: LEEFFM on Sunday, January 18, 2015, 12:39:17 PM

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to startup my server in Tournament Mode for scrims?
 I tried editing RunServer.bat:

Code: [Select]

server.exe TOURNAMENT Pipeline.aao log=aa25srv.log ini=aa25srv.ini
I did not see an option for it in the assist server manager.

Should work to do it through Tournament mode in the F12 Admin Panel, at least it used to be able to.

You should be able to add/remove admins without restarting.

there is a part in the ini file which is deleted.
i can put the needed informations from there in here - but at work now, so you have to wait 10 hrs.

you have to edit the aa25srv.ini, located in the system/server folder.
add the following part after the end of the file:

Code: [Select]

[AGP_Gameplay.AGP_GameTournament]
asTournamentTeamName[0]=A
asTournamentTeamName[1]=B
sMatchName=DESBL Match
sTournamentName=DESBL
sLeagueName=DESBL

; How much time must pass between pause/restart/etc. unfulfilled Team Captain requests
iTournamentRequestDelayTime=30

; How long a delay between each round the tournament will pause in seconds
iTournamentRoundDelayTime=15

; How long the Mission Planning period is (in minute)
iTournamentWarmupDuration=5

; How long (in seconds) team captains have to set player weapons when side-swapping occurs
iTournamentSwapTime=180

; How frequently (in rounds) automatic side-swapping will occur.  For example, to have
; automatic side swapping occur after every two rounds set this value to two.
iTournamentSwapLimit=6

; How long pauses (time-outs) last (in seconds)
iTournamentPauseLimit=180

; Whether the tournament will end (ENDEX) based on one team being statistically eliminated
;  from winning.
bTournamentMercyRule=False

; Whether all weapon slots should be available or only those based on the number of
; players on each team (as is done in standard game modes)
bTournamentOpenAllWeaponClassSlots=False

; Whether team captains are allowed
bTournamentTeamCaptainsAllowed=True

; Whether team passwords (specific in Engine.AccessControl.asTeamPasswords) are used
; (set to true if you are requiring team passwords to join teams)
bTournamentTeamPasswordsRequired=True

; Whether ties should be broken using "sudden death" rounds - see documentation for details
bTournamentTieSuddenDeath=False

; Whether ties should be broken by calculating team scores - see documentation for details
bTournamentTieScore=True

; Whether teams should be randomly assigned to assault or defense to start the tournament
bTournamentEnableRandomTeamAssignments=False

oh, oh. sorry, this is my bad. i forgot, you are right.

there is - so far i know - no way to start the server first time in tournament mode by automatic. you have to do this by yourself manualy.
but once running in that mode, with the correct configurations, it will restart and everything else by itself.

sorry for the missunderstanding.
