R26's Magic Server Guide

Istrolid "Magic" Server Guide

R26's "Magic" server is a special type of server that allows the server host to modify server settings on-the-fly using chat commands.

Some of you may have seen me (Uthel) in there, messing around with stuff, and some of you have been experimenting with it a bit already!

I figured I'd write a little guide containing all the fun game-modding commands tested and functional so far.

!reset (resets all game mods)
!changes (shows all active game mods)
!import <ship slot> (applies saved settings from a ship in the slot)
!export (generates a ship on the map containing current server settings saved in its ai)

!mode nvn (switches to nvn mode, any # of players per team)
!mode ffa (switches to ffa mode, using R26's ffa.io gamemode)
!mode surv (switches to JWDE's Survival mode)
Clicking 1v1, 2v2, or 3v3 resets it to normal mode.

Set and set sim are the big ones, they let you change the stats of parts, and server variables.

!set sim <sim> <value> (used for changing server settings, here are some options:
!set sim <sim> default - restores to default

--- Sims ---

mapScale - change size of map
defaultMoney - change starting money
moneyRatio - change income
costLimit - change ship cost limit
unitLimit - change number of ships
NxN - change max ship size using R26's big build area script: https://gist.github.com/Rio6/d06da4f625d36f69a231a5fff442cfd4
victoryGoal - Only in FFA



!set <part> <field> <value> - set a stat of a part
!set <part> <field> default - resets stat of a part to default

So you need all three to set the stat. I'll list some parts, then some fields, then some values.

--- Fields ---

hp - HP the part provides
cost - cost of the part
mass - mass of the part

aoe - Turret aoe
damage - Turret base damage
range - Turret base range
burnAmount - Turret Burn amount
energyDamage - Turret EMP damage
bulletSpeed - Turret base projectile speed
shotEnergy - Turret E cost to fire
reloadTime - Turret base reload rate
bounceRange - Tesla's bounce range


--- Values ---

Most parts have numbers, to see what the default is, set it to default!

Alternatively disabling a part works,

!set TeslaTurret disable true (disables tesla turret)

I'll give a few examples of full set commands:

!set sim mapScale .5 (small map)
!set sim moneyRatio 2 (double income)

!set TeslaTurret damage 1000 (Tesla does 1000 damage per shot)
!set BombGun aoe 1000 (Phase aoe is 1000m)
!set AOEWarhead hp 5000 (Nukes are indestructible)
!set ArtilleryTurret bulletSpeed 500 (Arty waaay too fast)


As you can imagine, things can get out of hand pretty quickly.


To immediately force the server to restart in case of catastrophic lag, use:

!restart
