Reconnect client to next server

[looping193 10]

I was wondering i there is any way to trigger the client side to disconnect and then reconnect to a specific server with ip.

 

I've been searching for this but it does not seem to be available with .sqf scripting. So is there a way for the server to trigger a client script like batch file that will reconnect to an other server ?

I could see a .dll extension working for this possibly? I'm not too sure, definitely not in SQF though, no way. Refer to Arkensor's post.

I'm not experienced in C++ C# etc for .dll extensions so maybe someone else could extend onto this a bit.

Sorry I couldn't help you too much, but its given you a bit of guidance.

Hello there,

 

have a look that the example from this command. https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/sendAUMessage

 

I tried to use it but, this command seems to be completly broken, or I didn't use it the right way. Maybe someone was able to successfully use that and can explain how it works.

 

Otherwise, about the extension:

 

It is possible with an extension for sure, since you could just try to hook into the game memory and modify it, so that it uses the connect mechanism for a specified ip and port, like steam uses it - BUT Battleye would nerver ever allow a dll to modify game ram, and I do not know if you could get into the connect meachnism without any reverse engeneering. This is something else than scanning for a variable adress pattern, for variables in the missions.

I am not an "expert" about the <modify game so it connects> part, but if there is a way, and I would get information on that, I could try to write an extension for it.

 

 

Regards Arkensor

The only thing i am thinking of is kick the client and launch some kind of script doing a steam://connect<ip><port>

We're unable to do so currently, however BIS does -- at least tentatively -- plan to deliver such a feature in the future.

Some pretty cool features in the works there, good too see.
the ability to connect clients to other servers could prove abusive however [No idea how but i'm sure someone could figure it out] possibly if it was used by somebody exploiting on a server and redirecting clients from where they mean to be.
But, if used for the right reasons, could be pretty cool.
