Remote Console Commands

From Holdfast: Nations At War
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This guide covers settings that can be reached through the in-game console (bound to F1 by default). While there are more console commands possible, these are the most commonly used and useful ones.

Using The Console

Logging In As Admin

All commands will require login with the admin password first (see Server Hosting for how to set the server_admin_password). You only need to log on once per session (i.e. each time you reconnect to a server, but not on map rotation). The command to login is below and is case sensitive. 

rc login <server_admin_password>

If you don’t see any console output confirming the login, hit F1 a couple of times to close and reopen the console.

Sending Remote Commands

All commands are prefixed with rc to distinguish them from console commands that run on your local game only. For example, rc help prints the list of rc commands and some descriptive help text. If you just type help you would only get the local console commands rather than the remote commands.

The console also has auto completion by pressing Tab for most commands (if not all arguments). This means that you can type a partial command, hit Tab, and it will complete the rest of the command up to the point where there is no ambiguity. This is handy if you can only remember the start of the command, or to correct the case used for commands as the console is case sensitive.

Examples:

  1. Typing rc set drawFir and pressing Tab will automatically expand the command to read rc set drawFirearmTrajectories
  2. Typing rc carbonPlayers force and pressing Tab will automatically expand the command to read rc carbonPlayers forceInput as it cannot choose between forceInputRotation or forceInputAxis.

Sending Multiple Commands Per Line

If you want to run multiple commands in a single line, they can be issued with a semi-colon (;) separating each command, as below: 

rc <command1>; <command2>; <command3>; <command4>

For example, to broadcast a message to begin fighting, turn off god mode, and enable firing as separate commands, you would have to enter the following lines: 

rc broadcast Begin your fight!
rc set characterGodMode 1
rc set allowFiring true

To issue this as a single line command, you would write it as: 

rc broadcast Begin your fight!;set characterGodMode 1;set allowFiring true

Delayed Execution Commands

If you want to run a command at a specific time in the current map, you can issue a delayed command to run at a specified time. This takes the format: 

rc delayed <time> <command>

The time parameter is issued in seconds, and will activate when the in-game clock reaches the specified time. So a time of 300 will activate when the clock hits 5:00. Multiple commands can be queued up in this way to activate at a set time. On servers with unlimited clocks, the time will never be reached so the command will activate immediately.

For example, if you want to issue the All Charge command in a linebattle at the 8 minute mark, with a warning at 10:00, you could use the commands: 

rc delayed 600 broadcast All charge at 08:00
rc delayed 480 broadcast All Charge!  No Firing!
rc delayed 480 set allowFiring false

Console Commands

Some commands take arguments that determine how they behave. You've already seen one example of this - the server_admin_password above is an argument to the login command. Another would be setting God Mode on the servers.

rc set characterGodMode 1 Enables god mode, the argument is 1.

rc set characterGodMode 0 Disables god mode, the argument is 0.

Where commands take arguments, they will be listed in angle brackets (<argument>). In some cases, arguments are optional. These will be surrounded by square brackets ([<optionalArgument>]). Where more than one optional argument is available, all arguments up to the desired argument must be given.

e.g. For a command of the form rc command <argument1> [<optional1>] [<optional2>] [<optional3>], to use <optional2>, we must also provide <optional1>. Arguments will be listed in the form argument (type): description, where argument is the name of the argument, type indicates the form the argument takes, and finally a description of the argument. Possible types of argument are:

String: Any amount of text
Boolean: true or false
Integer: A non-floating point number (i.e. no decimals)
Float: A floating point number (i.e. has decimals)
List: A specific list of options that will be provided (e.g. faction choices of British, Prussian, or French)

Notes:

  • Some arguments will require numbers representing a position or rotation. These can be worked out in game by typing get in the console to give the current player's position and rotation.
  • Some arguments will require the ID of a player. This is visible in the Admin/Mute Players Window (reached by pressing P by default), or by using the command rc playerlist.
  • All remote commands can be added into your Server Configuration file for each map rotation, so you can automatically run commands when the map is selected. For example, you may want to always spawn 100 bots on a certain map for training purposes.

Top Level Commands

Configuration Variables

There are a number of server-side variables that can be tweaked which affect how the game behaves. These generally carry over between map rotations, so once they're set they can only be reset manually or by restarting the server. A recommendation for server owners would be to add the appropriate commands to set defaults into their starter map rotation (such as Training Grounds) so that they can restore the settings without a restart. See Server Configuration for how to do this.

Typing rc get will list the full set of variables and their current values. The ones listed below are those likely to be of use to server admins.

As of version 0.38, all settings below can be reset to their default values by issuing the command rc set default. This is useful to insert into specific map rotations as an easy reset.

Weather Settings

These settings will allow you to change the time of day and weather of the current map. All weather and time of day are combined into presets.

Weather presets may only be used on maps that fit their theme, for example you cannot use sand presets, on snow or forest maps. Modmap may use all presets.

These commands should be prefixed with rc nature.

e.g. To set the wind direction to North, rc nature wind North

Command Description Arguments
preset <name> Set the weather to one of the defined presets name (List): The name of the preset to select from the list here
wind <value> [<transitionTime>] Set the direction of the wind Z (Does not appear to do much at the moment) value (List): One of North, NorthEast, East, SouthEast, South, SouthWest, West, NorthWest

transitionTime (Float): The length of time in s for the change to happen over (defaults to 0s)

Bot Commands

Holdfast has some fairly dumb bots. While they won't put up a fight, they are useful for testing ranges, or just satisfying your need to kill. All commands are prefixed with rc carbonPlayers . Note that most commands apply to all bots, except where a bot could literally not follow the command (non-flagbearers switching to a BearingFlag for example). e.g. To spawn 50 bots you would issue the command rc carbonPlayers spawn 50.

Most commands require prerequisites such as "be close to the object/horse/player", have line of sight, or be the correct class.

Bot commands
Command Description Arguments
spawn <number> [<interval>] Spawn a number of bots on the server. Bots spawn (and respawn) as random classes and factions distributed across spawn points. number (Integer): The number of bots to spawn interval (Integer): Seconds between each spawn. Defaults to 0.

Horse Commands

These commands will override ALL horses on the server, not just non-player horses.

Holdfast has some fairly dumb bots. While they won't put up a fight, they are useful for testing ranges, or just satisfying your need to kill. All commands are prefixed with rc vehiclesManager.

e.g. To set horse speed you would issue the command rc vehiclesManager cappedSpeed 2; vehiclesManager forceCappedSpeed true.
