Teleporting Between Servers?

Postby [FTF]Freedom » Sun Jan 13, 08 1:47 pm

Hi.

I had the idea that I could perhaps set up one server with a "portal" map, with teleporters leading to other servers. Sorta like an interactive master server. Just for a laugh, really.

Also, if [whoever made them] would grant me permission to nick their idea, I could have switches which use MMShowMessage mutator to display the name of the server which the teleporter leads to.

So basically the idea is to make some sort of way to travel between servers, in-game, without using commands.

I have been told before that it is possible, but I've no idea how to go about doing it.

Could someone give me some pointers please?

Awww.

My dream would be to have a "subway train" which teleported player to a random server. Wouldn't that be cool!

It's been done, but why would you? =/ We have a MasterServer for a reason...

Just like all my other ideas - to achieve at least something lol. I've not made any maps/mods for DXMP (Well - I did make 2 maps but lost them and they were never finished).

I just wanna do something different.

Well, in Teleporter.uc:
Code: Select all
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Teleporter URL can be one of the following forms:
//
// TeleporterName
//      Teleports to a named teleporter in this level.
//      if none, acts only as a teleporter destination
//
// LevelName/TeleporterName
//     Teleports to a different level on this server.
//
// Unreal://Server.domain.com/LevelName/TeleporterName
//     Teleports to a different server on the net.
//
var() string URL;

EDIT:

Right, map "mega-lolz-1" on my home hosted server has a teleporter which takes player to the main FTF server, at map "mega-lolz-2".

Could have fun with this.
