User story

As a server administrator, I want the server to retrieve configuration settings from the serversettings.con file

Game

Battlefield 1942

Linux distro

Ubuntu 22.04

Command

command: start, command: details

Further information

After updating to the latest linuxgsm version, when executing any of the bf1942server commands (e.g. start, stop, details, etc..), multiple fn_info_game_con: command not found errors are printed from the info_game.sh script.

It seems that this functionality was recently re-worked, and this function was either removed or not implemented. Battlefield 1942 servers are unable to be started without any manual modifications to the info_game.sh file to ensure that important configuration settings (like server ip, port number, and server password) can be set, and the server be available for users to connect to.

The server starts, but with default settings instead of the settings defined in the serversettings.con file.

Example: serversettings.con file contains the property game.serverPort 14567, but linuxgsm is staring the server on port 0 instead.

@jiwertz commented on GitHub (Sep 6, 2023):

@dgibbs64, I agree that the "fn_info_game_con: command not found" error is no longer occurring, however, when running the bf1942server details command, it still doesn't appear to be parsing the information from the configuration file correctly.

Battlefield: 1942 Server Details
================================================================================
Server name:      NOT SET
Server IP:        0.0.0.0:0
Internet IP:      <REDACTED>:0
Display IP:       <REDACTED>:0
Server password:  NOT SET
Maxplayers:       0

These properties above should have populated from the serversettings.con file.

After investigating further, I've narrowed down the problem to the fn_info_game_keyvalue_pairs() method. It would seem this method is expecting the second argument (the config file property) to be followed by an = sign, and then the property's value, but Battlefield 1942 doesn't use an equals sign in it's serversettings.con file, it is separated by spaces. Example:

game.serverMaxPlayers 32
game.serverPort 14567

So the fn_info_game_keyvalue_pairs() is unable to parse the properties because of this.

In addition, the fn_info_game_bf1942() method is looking for the wrong property for the server IP. It is looking for game.serverIp, but it should actually be game.serverIP (note the capital "P"). WIthout this change, it is unable to find the correct IP address from the serversettings.con file.

Hopefully this information helps!

Seems to be working, for the most part. Not sure it's a major issue, but the new logic for fn_info_game_keyvalue_pairs_space() only captures the last word after the last space for the configuration parameter. So if you have something like the following in the config file:

game.ServerName "My Awesome BFServer"

It comes out as the server name being just "BFServer"

Thanks. Getting the parsing correct for all configs is a work in progress 😅
