Kicking for not being in a squad
How does your server do this? I looked through a few of the threads for a solution but I couldn't find it. I did find the autobalance for everybody but squadleader and commander though which is useful. Anyhow, if you could just tell me how that would be great.

Re: Kicking for not being in a squad
You're being kicked when you are not in a squad and you die. Or, the admin is kicking you out to make room for a supporting member. The former is more likely, though. Make sure you join up with a squad when you join the server.
Also, there is currently a bug that may kick you when you try to change sides.Telorn

Re: Kicking for not being in a squad
Yeah, I cooked that one up, but it's apparently not ready for the world yet. Until I get it stable -- or at the very least, can pin down and announce every last damn bug in its implementation -- it's only going to be TacticalGamer's problem for a while. Originally Posted by Mishkan

I put up my script for squadless kicking. It hasn't been tested much but it's free for editing.

Re: Kicking for not being in a squad
i was looking at this page and found this
http://bf2.fun-o-matic.org/index.php...:ReservedSlots
it reserves slots for certain players..you just put the number of slots and names of people and it keeps spots open for them
not sure if this has been talked about but what about this
http://bf2.fun-o-matic.org/index.php..._Announcements
auto announcementsthat sounds like a good idea trooper.

Re: Kicking for not being in a squad
Unfortunately that won't work, Trooper. That is to permanently reserve spots for specific names. We want people to be able to fill in the slots while supporting members are absent. And we have more supporting members than slots that could be reserved, so it would end up being a private server

Re: Kicking for not being in a squad
Take a closer look at the script because it's not a bad implementation. It always ensures there will be a free slot for members when the server is getting full. So if it's on a 64 player server, there will always be 63 players unless all the players are on the reserve list.

Re: Kicking for not being in a squad
That is not a good implementation. It says:
Once the server gets past a certain number, only reserved slots can join. It does not kick existing players to make room.. It just caps the number of 'public' players allowed.
-- Suits are what you wear when doing things you shouldn’t want to do anyway.
FROM THE TACTICAL GAMER PRIMER.
3) Support game play in a near-simulation environment. Where the focus of play would not be solely on doing what it takes to win, but doing so utilizing real-world combat strategy and tactics rather than leveraging exploits provided to players by the design of the game engine.

Re: Kicking for not being in a squad
That's what I am trying to describe. If it's a 64 player server, set the number to 64. Then when the server reaches 63 players, the 64th player that joins must be a reserved member. The script can be improved to minimize slots wasted. When a 64th player that is a reserved member joins, kick another non reserved player to free a slot for another reserved member. This way you're only wasting one slot. Gee, think outside the box people!
The scripts on that wiki are not just for use but also for inspiration.

Re: Kicking for not being in a squad
if i knew PHP i would write exactly that....thats a good idea sarc...it would basicly act as an admin instead of us asking to join it would give us a slot upon connection...it might just work
that sounds like a good idea trooper.

Re: Kicking for not being in a squad
I don't see a reason for having to make that last slot open if you're always kicking somebody... its the same as having a 63 player server...
Why not just have it kick a person with the lowest points/timeunit once a recognized supporting member attempts to connect?
