Seems to be an endless supply of theories on the player count here now,
as mentioned in a few threads recently. Some blame the mods, some blame
server settings, while some blame both.

Creating "spawn waves" may not yield your desired results on it's own.
Players may continue do their own thing, like waiting for vehicles or
just chatting. More likely, you'd need verbal coordination as well.
Seems unlikely to me, given the games age and player mentality.

Some mention Kursk, which in it's stock form provided three tanks per side.
DICE thought that was a good idea yet the players did not. So here we are
with added vehicles and similar situations across other maps..

Edit:  where's tuia, I have an idea for El Al..

One of causes can be  when you have object on map that wasnt designed by devs for bots to use, like submarines, so you need to remove such vehicles i guess

One option which may work in that regard - force the spawngroup to "only human".
So using a sub for example, you'd edit the Game\GlobalSpawnGroups.con

rem *** Sub7c Driver ***
spawnPointManager.group 78
spawnPointManager.groupTeam 1
spawnPointManager.groupIcon test2.tga
rem spawnPointManager.groupStatus 0
spawnPointManager.OnlyForHuman 1

I was going to try this method for a couple things on PipeR's server, but never got to it.

Kriger shows no regard for others. Base, taxi, and disruption every time.
He shouldn't have a home here.

El Al: switch to CQ, add a [slight] turbo to jeeps instead of that flying nonsense. 
Kursk: remove airplanes regardless of game mode.

Btw - Kursk has four spawns in the house, and one spawn in the barn for Axis,
and three spawns in the house, and one spawn in the barn for Allies on CQ.
For CTF, there is one additional spawn in the house for Allies.
Very easy to fix that mess.

Must be upside down world, seeing seVen come to a forum complaining about the rules he used to implement so heavy handedly when he was an admin.

There may be a rule regarding administration posts which are not involved in.  Check on it.

But no complaint about the rule here since it isn't one, nor had i been afk regardless.
The problem is with the admin and his choice to kick w/o merit.
Similar to a half dozen of us kicking 000 a couple years ago.

It is all suppose to be stopped.  Dary didn't the memo, nor does he choose to own it now.

But you got my point...

Very much so:
- You can fabricate a reason to kick someone which was clearly a spiteful act
- The player can provide full details of what happened
- Responsibility is evaded

From what I have seen,  you've otherwise been a somewhat decent admin, showing
a willingness to help others at times.  Shame to see the low road taken here.

...something that I had made to quickly change colors for different maps/environments.

Nine colors included, although you could easily add more variations.
Place the files in your Battlefield folder (root folder with your BF1942.exe):

ch-black.txt
ch-blue.txt
ch-cyan.txt
ch-green.txt
ch-orange.txt
ch-pink.txt
ch-red.txt
ch-yellow.txt
ch-white.txt

Rather than activating a color by opening your console and typing:  include ch-orange.txt
you could add aliases to your Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf1942\Settings\AliasedCommands.con

alias black "include ch-black.txt"
alias blue "include ch-blue.txt"
alias cyan "include ch-cyan.txt"
alias green "include ch-green.txt"
alias orange "include ch-orange.txt"
alias pink "include ch-pink.txt"
alias red "include ch-red.txt"
alias yellow "include ch-yellow.txt"
alias white "include ch-white.txt"

Then simply open the console and type:  orange

- Jorgen mentioned that the teams are uneven. I mentioned that "team balance is extinct"
- You and four others on red weren't concerned enough to switch to blue tho
- Players are allowed to wait for vehicle spawns
- Server has an auto-kick for afk
- Admins should ask if player is afk, but you knew I wasn't regardless
- Deathbail?  I was a ship.  You yourself bailed then suicided on Battleaxe, so there's that..

how do you modify kill chat to have +3 lines?

You can adjust the following via console or by editing GeneralOptions.con Denny:
chat.setChatMessageSize
chat.setGameInfoMessageSize
chat.setKillMessageSize

Just keep in mind that the maximum lines = 12
 
You can enter this in console to show your current values:
chat.chatInfo

 
I've been using this setup for a while:
chat.setChatMessageSize 5
chat.setGameInfoMessageSize 2
chat.setKillMessageSize 5
 

Here is the old style if you want to try that:
chat.OldChatListStyle 1/0 (If set to 1, the old v1.2 message window model is used)
chat.OldChatListHistory # (No. of rows used if the old message window model is used)

Can't recall how many lines this will offer, but it is a messy display regardless..

As per Seven's deleted comment, please post the logs and you'll notice that in this interaction he provided more insults to me than I sent to him.

He did indeed.  And you receive a one day ban for this, yet nothing for test.
And it was Alvarez who initiated this event with his undertone trolling...

I removed the post in another "why bother" realization here. Test is provided protection
by more admins all the time now.  There were five admins on Bocage when he chose to
troll me with his "take your pills" and other nonsense, yet no response from any admin.

The lead admin is either oblivious to what occurs here, or simply does not care enough.

He's been kicked & banned on numerous occasions for radio spam as well, yet

So good luck w/ that.

Baral, the dedicated server installation can be found here:
https://team-simple.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=656/

Not a bad idea to grab the updated executables also:
https://team-simple.org/download/

After install, right-click the BFServerManager.exe & DedicatedServer.exe to set them in
comparability mode.  "Windows XP" or "Windows 7" is fine.

Btw - A search of this forum will yield multiple topics on server hosting.

Dear Volodymyr Mych,

Due to the pleasure you had in destroying the b17 on Market, along with the unprovoked insults
on Midway, I feel it is best to continue the ban in it's entirety to allow you some reflection time.

Thank Your for your kind understanding.
