Setting Up RConClient for DServer

[WWDarkdiz]

Salute all:

Trying to figure out RConClient and controlling my server remotely (for the most part the DServer machine is right beside me, but I feel RConClient gives me more control.  And if I install it on a different machine, it would not be so handy, I would need this capability).

When connecting RConClient to DServer, rcon always asks for the IP I want to connect to, but defaults to 127.0.0.1.  How do I change that to my local IP address?  I tried editing the startup.cfg file, as well as the _rconClient.cfg file, but it still comes up as 127.0.0.1.

How do I change that?

 

Cheers

See "Control a Multiplayer Mission Server From Any PC" on pg. 173 of the editor manual.

Outstanding.  I probably should have read that a bit closer the first time...

BTW, what does the "Marshals" box do?

[JimTM]

That's for the upcoming "Air Marshall" feature, which allows a player to assume a commander role for one side. They are still testing this so we don't know any specifics yet on how it works.

Outstanding. It's nice dealing with someone who gives a sh!t, and is clearly proud of what he has created.  Are you going to put out a revised manual?

Salute Sir!

Maybe an online version someday.

"someday"? Oh the joy, the rapture.!

I’m actually considering printing it, IMHO (plus I’m an old guy) it’s easier to use without a display, and I can use it concurrently with the editor without having to switch windows
