Scipting newbie help - please !!

[Darren Rathbone]

Hi,

 

I'm looking to write a server-side (only) mod which can display messages,
auto-kick people for swearing/racism (from a list of banned words) and a few
other minor things. It will be run on a Linux ded server, and will be
similar to GSG (GameServerGuardian) as run by the [FuN] servers.

 

Could anyone tell me the best way to do this ?  Do I need to write an actual
`mod` for the game, or is there a script related way to do what I need (like
monitoring log files combined with Rcon, maybe) ?

 

If an actual game mod would be needed, how do I start learning something
like that ??  I'm a decent(ish) programmer/scripter, but the only details
I've found on CoD scripting related to maps and AI paths etc..

 

Any advice would be MUCH appreciated - or anyone willing to help me create
this.

 

Thx

PapaLaz

 

BTW - Sorry if this is a stupid question. Joined the mailing list and
watched it for a while - thought it was time to participate :P
