What configs can you change?

Post by blud »

In PR 0.756 and earlier, the configs you could alter (for a private server) were realityconfig_common.py, realityconfig_private.py, and serversettings.con

Is that still the case in 0.8?

Thanks

Im prety sure serversettings.con does not do anything (even if you edit it PR will overwrite those changes)

you now have 3 editable py files:
realityconfig_common.py (editable)
realityconfig_private.py (editable)
realityconfig_local.py (editable)

the realityconfig_public.py is still not editable

Thanks.

What's realityconfig_local.py for? (I don't have a server so, I don't have the file to look at it and see.)

Local hosting, ie: LAN, and you do have the file:

What are the following values used for?

# PROJECT REALITY DISTANCES
# Default is 5, 10, 50, 100, 200, 400
DISTANCE_PICKUP = 5
DISTANCE_SPAWN = 10
DISTANCE_CLOSE = 50
DISTANCE_AREA = 100
DISTANCE_WIDE = 200
DISTANCE_HUGE = 400

I know PICKUP is used for distance from an outpost to request a pickup kit. I think CLOSE is used for the distance 3 people need to be from an enemy RP to destroy it, but, I wonder if CLOSE is also used for anything else. And I'm guessing AREA, WIDE, and HUGE are used for 3 sizes of flag capture radius, but I could be wrong and/or they could be used for something more than that.

Thanks

What setting do I have to change in order to get players switch teams after mapchange? As for now the standard is that all players remain in the same team and squad after a new map started :)

Thx for help

DISTANCE_PICKUP = 5 - from assets pickup/supply distance (check end of private config)
DISTANCE_SPAWN = 10 - objectives spawn distance
DISTANCE_CLOSE = 50 - rally destroy distance

some kind of map-related distances:
DISTANCE_AREA = 100
DISTANCE_WIDE = 200
DISTANCE_HUGE = 400

of course its only my thoughts

I'm not, I'm actually working and not being able to check the forums every day during the week, so give me a break.

The distances are used in several different things and if you change one it can affect other parts of the game you don't want. So I wouldn't touch them.

I'm not not giving you a break... It was a sincere question, I thought you might be on vacation or something.
