RCON Master for Jedi Academy

nn_lb1

Control has always been one of the most important things for game servers back since the dawn of multiplay. I am reminded of the wonderful JK Kicker Helper back in the Dark Forces 2 days, one of the first helpful tools for server hosters in this particular series. Now, having moved on to a more modern engine, additional tools are necessary to ensure the safety of home-grown -- or even rented -- servers.

All server hosts should know about rcon -- remote control. There are various utilities out there allowing more rcon control, however in case you didn't think there were enough we've got another one here. I've had a look at it and if it works like advertised I'm relatively impressed. I mean I've seen rcon programs before. Most of them are either confusing or... well... small, with not very many functions. This particular utility features a custom-made piece of software to allow you the greatest amount of control for your server from your desktop. The basics are included, like server status and kicking/banning utilities, however the rest of the commands you might find yourself needing are all there, arranged in easy-to-use menus. Check the screenshots for a better idea of how this particular utility works.

Keep in mind that the author has dubbed this a 'beta'. Be sure to use it out and report any bugs so he can improve the software for future versions.

Double click the exe to start the program.  A default Server List will be loaded.  If it is not visible on the &quot;ServerList&quot; tab, press &quot;Reload&quot;.  The default server should appear, example: 127.0.0.1:29071, Local Host.  Enter your server data in the grid, press &quot;Save&quot;.  If you set the &quot;DEFAULT&quot; field to &quot;Y&quot;, the program will auto load that server.    Make sure your server is selected, and press &quot;Set Server&quot;.  I think the rest should be easy enough to understand...but feel free to direct questions to me.
