Your server has a web console on 2hours.gg that sends these commands for you. In game, enter the rcon password from your server card in the game's rcon field, then send the commands below. In the web console, a reply of OK means the command ran.
Maps
si_map mp/q4dm1: pick the map. Nothing changes until the next command. The map has to suit the server's mode, for example q4ctf1 for CTF or q4dz1 for DeadZone. The web console lists the maps that fit.serverMapRestart: load it. Alone, it restarts the current map and starts a new match.- Both in one line:
si_map mp/q4dm1; serverMapRestart
Limits
si_fragLimit 30: frags to win in Deathmatch, Team DM and Tourney.si_captureLimit 8: captures to win in CTF and Arena CTF.si_timeLimit 15: minutes per match, in every mode.
Server
say hello: message everyone.si_name "My Server": rename the server.
Good to know
- Quake 4 has no status command over rcon. The scoreboard in game shows who is on.
- The mode and the player slots are set when you deploy. The web console keeps them, and the map list follows the mode.
- Tourney waits for a second player and Quake 4 has no bots. To try a map alone, deploy in Deathmatch.
- Change the join password with Edit password on your server card, so the card and its connect line stay in step.
Deploy a Quake 4 server by the hour
