Left 4 Dead (A SickPillz hosting adventure) continued
Posted December 19, 2008 – in: Blog, GamesHello,
I only have a quick post for today because I am sick and I don’t have much time. All I really wanted to say is that I have enabled logging in my L4D server and all I had to do is add one line. So I no longer have to log the output from the console. Hit the jump to see what I have added.
hostname SickPillz L4D Server
// Rcon Cvars
rcon_password “my recon password” //Set’s remote control password
// Server Cvars
mp_disable_autokick 1 //Prevents a userid from being auto-kicked

sv_allow_wait_command 0 //Allow or disallow the wait command on clients connected to this server.

Oh well. Time for chicken soup, rest, and my new favorite podcast HACK.5.
