Use Weapon Restrictions

Requirements

• The admin_cs_restrict cvar must be set to 1 in adminmod.cfg
• The countrstrike specific plugin must be installed and loaded
• Restricting or unrestricting requires access level 32.
• Saving or removing map or server default restrictions requires access level 512
• If you wish to save map or default values then the vault_file cvar must be set in adminmod.cfg

Command Access

The easiest way to restrict weapons is to add amv_enable_beta "menu1" in adminmod.cfg. This allows you to use the command admin_restrictmenu in console and a menu (like the buy menu) appears in game for restricting weapons and items.

The standard method of using plugin commands from the console still works, if you want to enter restrictions manually in console or use the commands in a config file the syntax described in the next section.

Command Syntax

admin_restrict

admin_restrict [ <weapon-name> | <item-name> | menu [<menu-name>|<menu-number>] ]
admin_restrict [ team [ t | ct ] | player <player-id> ] (as above)
admin_restrict [ save | delete ] [ map | default ]
admin_restrict
admin_restrict [ help | on | off | restore | weapons | all ]


admin_unrestrict

admin_unrestrict [ <weapon-name> | <item-name> | menu [<menu-name>|<menu-number>] ]
admin_unrestrict [ team [ t | ct ] | player <player-id> ] (as above)
admin_unrestrict
admin_unrestrict [ help | weapons | all ]


The admin_unrestrict commmand uses the same basic syntax for adding or removing restrictions with the exception of the advanced management functions being unavailable. The effects of the arguments are identical except that they cause an unrestriction rather than a restriction. For example admin_unrestrict all will unrestrict everything.

• Using the command with no following arguments will print out the current status of restrictions on the server.
• Using help as the argument will print information on how to use the plugin.
• Using team followed by one of t or ct will make the restrictions following it apply only to that team. The rest of the command syntax is identical to standard restriction.
• Using player followed by a player identification, one of name wonid steamid or uniqueid, will apply the following restrictions commands only to the identified player. The restriction syntax is identical to standard restrictions.
• The argument save followed by map saves the current restrictions as the default for the current map, if the user has access enough to do so, similarly the save default arguments will cause the current restrictions to be the default restrictions on the server. Map restrictions override default restrictions when both are present.
• the argument delete will delete either map or default weapon restrictions.
• The restore argument causes weapon restrictions to be resotred to the default state for the current map. This means that if there are saved map restrictions they will be used, else if there are default restrictions those will be used, else there will be no restrictions.
• The on and off commands toggle weapon restrictions on and off respectively.
• The all command affects everything available, weapons and items.
• the weapon command affects everything except items.

Weapon and Item restriction

Weapon And Item Names

To restrict weapons and items the syntax is

admin_restrict [ <weapon-name> | <item-name> | menu [<menu-name>|<menu-number>] ]

The unrestriction syntax is identical. The weapon-name, item-name and menu-names will be explained below.

The list of weapon-names and item-names available for counter-strike is:

The new names for some weapons can also be used. The table below complements the table above, an empty cell means that there is no alternative name to the name above, an entry in the table below can be used in place of the entry in the same position in the table above. For example glock can also be known as 9x19mm but there is no other name for elites.

As well as being able to restrict individual weapons and items it is possible to restrict them in menu-names using their menu positions. These menu-name names can be used in place of weapon-name or item-name. Each menu menu-name also has a number, these numbers are the menu-name menu entry number. You can use the number instead of the menu-name name when restricting or unrestricting the menu-name.

The menu-name names and numbers available as as follows:

for example if you wanted to restrict all rifles you could either use the command admin_restrict menu rifles or admin_restrict menu 4. Both will restrict all rifles. Similarly if you wish to unrestrict all rifle usage you could use admin_unrestrict menu 4 or admin_unrestrict menu rifles.

Examples

This command will prevent all users from using the 12gauge shotgun.
admin_restrict 12gauge

The following commands will restrict all rifles for the duration of the current map only
admin_restrict menu rifles
admin_restrict menu 4

This command will save the current restrictions as the default restrictions on the server
admin_restrict save default

this command will prevent the user whos name is A User from using the mac10 rifle.
admin_restrict player "A User" mac10

this command will prevent all terrorists from using the awp rifle.
admin_restrict team t awp
