Server Tools

Hello All,

I am running a dedicated A16e B129 server on a separate computer that I have, I only have steamcmd on the machine and installed 7d2d server via "start "" steamcmd.exe +login username password +force_install_dir "C:\Steam" +app_update 251570 validate +quit".

I mention that because I read the other user from a while back is having the same issue and was not on dedicated.

so I copied over the mods folder to my root directory "C:\Steam\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die", started my dedicated server. went and looked in "C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\7DaysToDie" and did not see the server tools folder, I opened up the saves folder and did not see it, or in any of the subfolders.

I looked in the root\data\worlds folder and did not see it either, where can I find a log to look at? or what might be the cause? It looks like the mod is not loading in at all, not sure if I need to enable it somehow?

Thanks in advance for advice!

is the Saves folder located in the root folder? In serverconfig.xml the very last line is a choose saves folder. if this line is active then it will place your saves folder where that line tells it to. if that line in the parameter says "saves" then the saves folder will be located in the C:\Steam\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die

if that line is disabled then your save folder goes to C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\7DaysToDie

inside the Saves folder you should fond a folder called ServerTools. and your editable config xmls will be there.

Lastly, you must ENABLE the tools in the servertoolsconfig.xml to generate the appropriate editable xmls

<Tool Name="CustomCommands" Enable="False" ChatColor="[00FF00]" />

Must be made "True" to generate your xml in the Saves folder.

Correct you are, do you know the effects of updating the appid using the same bat file? will all be lost for my current server?

Is there a way to set multiple homes / teleport points? I'm using this for the home feature, but I can only set 1 home at a time.
Click to expand...
you can create other teleports in the custom commands. howver there will be no cool down

<!-- <Command Command="tradepost" Response="tele {EntityId} -310 -1 1010" DelayBetweenUses="60" /> -->

You will have to enter the coords like so. and name it whatever you like. As i said delayBetweenUses does not work for this.

As far as personal teleport points for players, im not sure you can create such with this tool alone as is.

 
Hey dmustanger, thank you very much for this amazing tool. An incredible job!

Now, I have a small problem with the infoticker messages, it's all set up but it does not show me the messages on the server! Motd's messages work and appear but are only visible if we select the chat. Can someone help me with this? Thx.

Hey Dude, The Invalids seem to be conflicting with pine seed and planted-winter pine 1m Just to let you know xD Also Is there a way to add different admin prefixes for their assigned perms. Or would you consider adding this to the tools

Thanks

Ari

i recommend deleting invalid items.xml and let the mod regenerate it

Hello, thanks for this amazing MOD!

But there is one problem if the phrase for kick reserved slots is not in English, it's empty. Maybe you can add the ability to use any language in the phrases?

And one question: can i use strings in serveradmin.xml like this?

Code: 
<permission cmd="resetplayer" permission_level="300"/>

You should be able to put what ever you want In the phrase. What language are you using? If you post the phrase in the language you want I can look at it. Most likely it is a unexpected character.

And yes you should be able to set the permission level in the serveradmin.xml

I found out that the problem is not in MOD. Now even in a standart admin command from console like this

Code: 
ban add 171 1 year "Редиска"
-ban reason will empty-

In version a15, any reason language was visible

Hey dmustanger, thank you very much for replying, I appreciate it a lot.

With many tests and with the new update the Motd works me well without having to enter the chat. Now we see it as soon as we enter the server.

Now with the InfoTicker fix it and it works great, the problem I had was that inside the xml configuration file at the beginning of each message was this "<! -" I took it out and now the messages appear on the server.

 
It would be nice to have an additional option for the name of the item in the chat like this

Code: 
        <item item="turd" custom_name="surprise!" min="1" max="5" />
in game chat

John Doe has received 1 surprise!
