. They are intended to be a place for North American clans and other people in the Nexuiz community who have a good attitude, to practice and mingle without being bothered by some of the players on the public servers.
Tourney Mod
These servers run a
Tourney Mod, which
allows us to use a warmup mode before starting a match. After the match starts, the players in the match cannot hear the conversation of the spectators. All modes (1v1, TDM and CTF) have a timelimit but no fraglimit.
Configuring Game Modes
The servers can be set to play ffa, 1v1, TDM or CTF by calling a vote for any of the following...
ffa - free-for-all deathmatch gameplay
1v1 - 1v1 gameplay
2v2tdm - 2 vs 2 Team Death Match
3v3tdm - 3 vs 3 Team Death Match
4v4tdm - 4 vs 4 Team Death Match
5v5tdm - 5 vs 5 Team Death Match
3v3ctf - 3 vs 3 Capture The Flag
4v4ctf - 4 vs 4 Capture The Flag
5v5ctf - 5 vs 5 Capture The Flag
Voting commands
You call the commands above by using
vcall 1v1 and so on. There are a number of other voting commands
available relative to the tourney mod. I will update this list here soon, but you can view them on the MOTD when you connect to the server
Inviting others
Generally, I'm okay with you inviting other players to the batcaves as long as they are cool-headed people
(not jerks) and you tell them using the
tell command so you aren't announcing the server address to everyone. If you aren't sure about this, then contact Dokujisan to make sure. They can always be kickbanned if they act out of line.
Official Clan Matches
For
official clan matches, a special server can be setup just for that match (usually on port 26030).
It is best to do this instead of using one of the batcaves for the clan match, because this special server can be setup as a public server so more people can watch the match. If you want to setup a clan match, then
Contact Dokujisan and let him know the date/time/maplist/number of players.
