Is there a console command for joining a random team?

DarkScythe

Hey everyone,

Just a quick question, for anyone that knows.
I know j1 is to join marines, and j2 is to join aliens.
rr is the ready room, and spectate is, well, spectate.

However, I can't seem to figure out the command for joining a random team.
The wiki says j3, but that doesn't work. I tried various iterations of random, joinrandom, randomteam, etc, but nothing worked. At least on my local server.

Any ideas?

You can always check the source code.

<!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->/ NS2 game mode console commands
Event.Hook("Console_jointeamone", OnCommandJoinTeamOne)
Event.Hook("Console_jointeamtwo", OnCommandJoinTeamTwo)
Event.Hook("Console_readyroom", OnCommandReadyRoom)
Event.Hook("Console_spectate", OnCommandSpectate)
Event.Hook("Console_film", OnCommandFilm)

// Shortcuts because we type them so much
Event.Hook("Console_j1", OnCommandJoinTeamOne)
Event.Hook("Console_j2", OnCommandJoinTeamTwo)
Event.Hook("Console_rr", OnCommandReadyRoom)<!--c2--></div><!--ec2-->

No random.

A server could easily re-implement it
<!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->Event.Hook("Console_j3", OnCommandJoinTeamRandom)<!--c2--></div><!--ec2-->
<!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->local function OnCommandJoinTeamRandom(client)
    local player = client:GetControllingPlayer()
    JoinRandomTeam(player)
end<!--c2--></div><!--ec2-->
(untested)

Ah, okay, thanks for the information.

I was only attempting to bind F1-4 the way it was in NS1, so I wasn't intending to mod anything.
If it doesn't exist, then I'll just have to go without it.
