What is XConsole?
XConsole is a mod that replaces your UT console and adds extra features and functions
in a small area at the top. It also adds some extra console commands.
For players:
Easy change teams on non LeagueAS servers
Change colours of your say/teamsay messages displayed in HUD
Fast changing from playing to spectating and vice versa
Logging in text or HTML with CSS support (works with CSHP but see notes in the readme)
Quickly dump console text to a log file using 'dump' command
Turns on/off various types of messages in console for better reading
Load/Save custom key configs
Functions for LeagueAS match servers
For admins and mods
Front-end for server Admin, LeagueAS, UTPure, UTDC and ASH
Server control for admins and LeagueAS mods
Use the console in Command, Say, Teamsay, Admin or Moderator mode
============================================================================================
Updates to version 3.00:
Major changes:
League Assault
Some people were getting kicked by LeagueAS but (fingers crossed) this is now
fixed. The default now is not to load any of the logging parts. This is what
was causing the kicks and client warnings. So you will have to give up logging
if this happens.
But you can still use the 'dump' command in console to save console text to either
html or text file. Do this *after* LeagueAS shows that your client is verified and
connected or you will probably still get kicked.
Any problems - just set LogPage=False in XConsole.ini
Also the LeagueAS tab now has two extra buttons - 'listmaps' and 'allow mercs'.
Let me know if extra commands/buttons would be useful.
Tab auto-complete
Console now has limited auto-complete irc/bash style. Type first few letters
of command or player name and press tab until correct command is displayed.
This is very new and may still be buggy. Obviously you cannot use the tab key
to open console to get this to work.
UTDC
The biggest addition is the UTDC page. It allows screen shots to be taken by
player name, so no having to find out players IDs. Most of the settings can be
controlled here too. To see the current state of a setting simply select it in
the drop down boxes. The states are written into the console. To change any of
the settings just select in the drop down box and press the on or off button.
The settings you will need to adjust manually are the ones that need some sort
of numerical input. Most of the controls are pretty self-explanatory.
Custom button page
This is another addition and allows you to assign commands to buttons. Some
examples are included. *Do not use the mass kick button offline!!* if you do,
ut will freeze up or crash and all your goldfish will die.
Other changes:
Now the Admin and LeagueAS login passwords are saved in XConsole.ini so it's
faster to login.
Fixed the focus bug so now when you open the console focus should be in the
edit box every time.

Let me know if some extra things could be put on the LeagueAS tab and I'll try to include them in next version.
