Battalion 1944 Server Commands

This is the official list of server commands for Battalion 1944 servers.

Introduction

We have released both the Linux and the Windows server files. Please use all commands with caution. When tweaking a server you are knowingly changing the tested core game set up. Bulkhead fully supports modders and any server admins wanting to change the game for their entertainment in a non-competitive capacity. However, please do so at your own risk!

If BULKHEAD INTERACTIVE release a server update you MUST update your server. Failure to do so will 100% result in networking bugs and other issues.

Practice Settings & Cheats

There is currently no "noclip" or "fly" command. But this is something we are working on, we will definitely be supporting this.

Bots

Technically, we have bots. The dev team use them for improving performance and testing weapons. However, the bots are very very stupid.

The bots in Battalion 1944, of course will be improved. But we have left them in there because we wanted players to have the option to use them.
These bots were never intended to be used as opponents, they are purely designed for testing. Use bots at your own risk, and when they start to lick each other. Please remain calm.

Add a bot to the server (careful now!)
"AddBot <NUM>"

Kill all bots
"KillBots"

Competitive Settings & Tournaments

This section is specific to players running competitive servers or tournaments

Changing the Gamestate

The Gamestate, is the current state of the server. To change to a server state, please use the commands below.
"State <STATE_NAME>"
Possible states:
WaitingToStart
CountdownToStart
SetupRound
PostRound
PostMatch

Show the GUID of All Players in a Server

This command is not actually a 'server' command, any user can do this to check that the players in the server are who they say they are and that they are registered with an external tournament provider to play in your tournament or cup.
To show the GUID you will need to press your console button twice, to show the "big console".
"cmd.GetPlayerStats"
