Server configuration tool with a GUI

Well my server is up and running :p
JacKD's Capture The Flag

I run that to make sure everything is working. It uses a CTF game mode, team and classes created with my tool.

-Added: error checking when the server fails to start when the port is already in use
-Fixed: delete update file after update

Server output is working?
I cannot see server output at "output" tab.

 

You have to start the server to get output. I've tested here and it works. It hasn't changed since it was introduced, so if an older version worked, this should work too.

I'll add some text to clarify that, something like "Server is not running, no output to show/available".

Check again, and tell me if it's working :)

 

Hmm...

 

How do I fix this?


And....

 

Hi,
Can you try using another port, like, 50302 or 50303?
Can you check if starting the server manually (double click dedicatedserver.bat in the KAG main folder) produces the same error?
(it would say it on the console, something like "Cannot creanet ENet server on port 50301")
Check if any instances of the server are running while you try to start the server from the app. It could be that some orphaned KAG.exe process is using the 50301 port, or maybe a single player game (Yes, SP uses the same 50301, Sandbox, Zombie Fortress, etc)

Try those things above and tell me what did/n't work :)

Can I has a SS for funsies?

 

JackD theres something going wrong with my tool?
i have 3 saved types of Servers: My RTDM, CTF and TRAINING
but everytime i open one it turns on the training one?
-i've tried closing and reopening
-i've tried starting the training then closing it and then start my other server (once ive stopped the training server)

PLZ HELP :)

 

Class editor, Game mode editor, Main window, Advanced server config, Team editor and Manager editor SS below :)

Try to open each .server file in notepad (drag and drop the file into the notepad windows) and check if their have the same data.
It could be that you had accidentally overwritten the other files. I have 3 server configs too (RTM, CTF and Zombie Survival) and they are working with no problem. Check that and tell me what happened :)
