BlitzBot commands: --------------------------- help a link to this file stopgame Tries to kill a game with given name. Kill works instead of stopgame as well. gamestatus Displays status of a game. Gives server status if a server is running the game at the moment. list Lists stuff. It won't list default maps. However, it won't launch a server if you try to start with an invalid map, so hey, experiment! servers Lists all current servers host -name -password -longhost [whitelisted dom4 arguments] Hosts a game. -name is the only mandatory command if you are rehosting an old game that is not passworded. Otherwise you'll need Dom4 argument -mapfile as well. -password will set a password on the game. If the game is passworded, you can only shut the server down (unless 60 minutes have passed) or rehost the game with the password. The server stores passwords unencrypted, so don't use anything you use elsewhere obviously. -longhost sets the server shut down protection from 60 minutes to 48 hours. You'll need to know a password to do it, however. If you really need a more permanent game, do ask. Here are the available Dominions 4 command line args. Refer to http://www.desura.com/games/dominions-4-thrones-of-ascensions/forum/thread/command-switches for how to use them. If you need something else I may consider it upon request, but this should allow everything you need except random map generation, which I will not enable due to the server being crappy.

Ask away in IRC. - Elmokki Rough changelog on 26.10.2013 rewrite ------------------------------ - Instead of the program handling game settings, you now use Dominions 4 commandline args. The change is minimal, but does affect switches such as -map (now --mapfile). - Servers instead of list servers. A bit different output - Passwords for games are stored so even if the server crashes your passworded game should be safe from anyone rehosting it. That said, if nations have passwords, it hardly matters if someone rehosts your game. - Some changes to output
