I was recently thinking about how nice it would be if you could create custom admin commands composed of multiple other existing commands on a server.
It seems like this could be easily arranged through something similar to the ability to set up bulk import/export of sectors. There could be a text file with some simple directions to set up a name for the command followed by the list of commands that would be run.
Example:
mybatchcommand{
/spawn_mobs catalogcapitalship -1 1
/spawn_mobs catalogdestroyer -1 3
/spawn_mobs catalogfighter -1 20
/initiate_wave 5 60
}
This could allow an admin to stage a cool event for players on the server by simply typing "/custombatch mybatchcommand". This would then spawn in a capital ship from the server catalog along with 3 destroyers and 20 fighters as escort... to be followed a minute later with an additional wave of enemy ships
This, of course, could be used to pre-set up any litany of available admin commands for other purposes as well
Let me know what you think.
