Lightron - Instant Temporary Servers
Lightron - Instant Temporary Servers
You can now get a temporary server to play around with whenever you want with the click of a button.
Just click for a server. Once you get the details back, you can connect via quick connect and put in the address and port. Log in with the auth you requested the server from, as it will instruct you to, to obtain owner rank.

Note that quick servers do not get control panel access and will not reboot once shutting down. Settings will not be saved and you cannot save servers after setting them up. This should make it easy to quickly get a war, tournament, etc. server without the hassle of waiting for someone to respond to you and set it up.
Enjoy! Feel free to reply here or message me on my site with any questions.
List of Presets as of 12/05/2015
• Capture the Flag
• Fortress
• High Rubber
• Loose Dogfight
• Sumo Bar
• Sumo Bar Dozen
• Tight Dogfight
• Zero Rubber

Re: Lightron - Instant Temporary Servers
Thanks. (:
It's something that's been in my head to do for a while, so I hope it's useful to people.

Re: Lightron - Instant Temporary Servers
I had a dumb mistake that made only one server be available. It's fixed, and there are 5.
Re: Lightron - Instant Temporary Servers
Of course .. Someone decided to get a server and ban tons of people. Now, the bans are all removed when you get a server, so they only last until your server shuts down.
Note, these servers will also stay up as long as you're active in them. If you leave it empty, then it'll shut down after a short delay.

Re: Lightron - Instant Temporary Servers
I would suggest adding:
High rubber,
Fast Track,
Fortress,
Some generic shooting mode?,

Re: Lightron - Instant Temporary Servers
I had HR ready and for some reason didn't add it. I guess I just accidentally scanned over it when I was doing it all. High Rubber is now added to the presets. I know I need to get a fortress one on there. I'll try to get FT as well. As for shooting, I'm not sure I have any configs set up for that. I was never a shooting person.aP|Nelg wrote:I would suggest adding:

Re: Lightron - Instant Temporary Servers
Great! I'd say that I always wanted such a service to exist, but can't quite remember whether Luke had something similar for a while.
Re: Lightron - Instant Temporary Servers
(: I didn't expect to have your approval. lol I remember your comment about the "click a button and pop up a generic fort server" thing. lol I'm glad that people are actually liking it.Z-Man wrote:Great!

Side Note: Guys, you can change the server name with "/admin server_name My Server". You are not limited on any settings. It all resets once you allow the server to shut down.
Also, you can just include config files to get whatever settings you may have had before. You can upload new ones at http://resource.armagetronad.net/upload and get to your files with a link there or finding your username directory in http://resource.armagetronad.net/resource
You don't have to do anything special to include it. Once it's there, just "/admin include /username/file.cfg".
Re: Lightron - Instant Temporary Servers
There's so many fortress configs. Which should I use? I'm not a fort player, so I don't really have much of an opinion on it. If someone wants to provide a good option for it, I'll be happy to add it.
Re: Lightron - Instant Temporary Servers
Fortress has been added to the list of presets.
Re: Lightron - Instant Temporary Servers
u should probably get a more stable host.. since players from EU are gettin better ping in most US West servers than your shitty "East" servers.. + your servers are generally laggy even for ppl living in east (so i've heard), no wonder no one plays on em
Re: Lightron - Instant Temporary Servers
Feel free to outdo me and go purchase servers for free hosting. Most people tend to get a 40 - 80 ping in them. I think I'll survive.Savage wrote:u should probably get a more stable host.. since players from EU are gettin better ping in most US West servers than your shitty "East" servers.. + your servers are generally laggy even for ppl living in east (so i've heard), no wonder no one plays on em
