    Hi All,

    You may have noticed that an update just went out, still labeled build 572. This update brings a feature that has been requested of me by many server owners - the ability to execute RCON commands without being in-game with a client. This feature, which I have been referring to as "tcp rcon" or "remote admin", allows you to connect to the server's game port via tcp (with telnet or another client). From there you can monitor/access console output as well as execute RCON commands.

    I actually started the design of this feature months ago, but this past week I have been traveling and had time to work on it while I was on the train.

    This update also contains a small memory corruption bugfix.

    More information about this new remote admin feature can be found in the wiki and questions/discussion of the feature can be found on the forums.

    Feels good to be back and actively working on KAG --

    That's really cool, I do like the "remote rcon" like things for servers. Not that I use it myself, I just like it as it can help with griefers since admins can connect faster.

    ALSO, I'M FIRST LOL

    Nice, another carrot to the server admins :)
     
  5. That's not fair, cant run it on windows. I can't even run the server manually, it keeps crashing.

    Sounds legit. o u o
    If I had a computer on hand to speak of!!!! >:O
    Would be cool if you can also do it through a possible free app that lets you do the same thing, just that you can only read the convos currently happening on said server. And also includes kicking abilities and the ability to talk to the players in the server.

    This is only a suggestion, don't rage.
