Autobalance Fix?

[Maxon]

Found this over at BC2 forums, seemingly a fix that can be used for servers to allow for autobalancing.  Not sure if it works or if there are problems, but it is better than nothing and wouldn't hurt to try till Dice gets off their butt and put out a fix instead of working on weapon balance.  Not that it's a bad thing, but I think there are more immediate problems to get worked out first.

Hi everyone,

I'am an german student and I devloped a remote admin tool, which helps to keep the teams balanced! I call it BFBC2AB. I would like to share my tool with the english speaking community as well.

What does the tool?
Is continuously check the playerlist to detect a team disbalance. If teams are not balanced it waits a adjustable time. After that time it warns all players on server with adjustable messages 3 times. Then the tool begins to warn a single player to switch team or get kicked form the server. It takes care to players who has already switched and cant switch a second time. It choose the last joined player. There is also a whitelist to protect players.


There are also some helpful ingame chat commands:
Code:

@kick <name>        // kick a player 
 
@last            // show the last joined player 
 
@kicklast        // kick the last joined player (for instance, 
                          to get free slots for clanmates) 
 
@lastswitched        // show the last switched player 
 
@kicklastswitched    // kick the last switched player 
 
@kickable        // show the player who could be kicked to get 
                          teams balanced 
 
@balancekick        // issue a balancekick will effect in a new 
                          kick task like the balancer does 
 
@update        // force to update the playerlist and start 
                          the balancer if needed

Interesting, the more you tighten your grip EA/DICE the more admins slip through your fingers
