[REQ TF2] Admins (or flagged groups) can't sit out in Arena

hatchback19 · **Author**

Was searching around and could not find anything, so I thought I'd suggest the idea. How about a plugin that allowed admins, or someone with a "flag" to not sit out in Arena? So that anyone with the certain flag would be passed when it's looking for the next person to sit. Not sure how difficult it would be, but thought it might be doable. Thanks!

Does the new cvar from yesterdays update "tf_arena_use_queue" make it so no one sits out?

If that doesnt help, I can write it.

tf_arena_use_queue 1

Makes Arena mode the way we know it. Even teams, with sitting out.

tf_arena_use_queue 0 (default)

Lets players pick sides, can AND will cause unbalanced teams (one player over the other) but still have the countdown on each round like it was arena. No random player scramble during the game.

I plan on keeping my server set to 1, and supposedly RunTeamLogic is going to be updated to work again.

EDIT:

Looks like RunTeamLogic has been updated to work correctly.

I was also wondering how I could go about writing a plugin like the one requested in this thread? I do plenty of work in C and C++, but I really don't know where to start other than the skeletal structure from the wiki.

Ya the cvar valve made is useless is causes teambalance issues and teams don't scramble with it

Has this plugin been made? I imagine this would be popular with just about every arena server.
