How to run SpeedKart under a different name?

[Superstarxalien169]

I want to know this. Basically change the name of the SpeedKart gamemode to anything like, GameMode_PotatoKart. When I do this, including the maps, I spawn in the middle of nowhere and the minigame is forgeted up. No rounds, water doesn't kill, vehicles are instantly activated. Help?

I would imagine that the name is referenced in more than one place amongst the speedkart files.

But why would you want to do this?

I'm planning to modify SpeedKart and make it have another name.

You can edit the SpeedKart name by editing the namecheck.txt and the zip files same. They just have to be the same.

Edit: "Zips file name" (not "same" sorry)

I think he means the name you see on the server list, in that case it might be better to run the speedcart scripts through the replace thing on notepad and replace any instance of speedcart with potatocart or whatever...  its been awhile since i scripted for blockland but that should work to change the name AND to patch up some conflicts with the original speedcart gamemode, also you will have to change any other files in the zip with speedcart in their name so that they can be loaded...

that is a lot of work, so you might be better off finding a variable for the name of the gamemode, if that exists...

I think he means the name you see on the server list, blah

For that, start your server and do $gamemodedisplayname = "some name"; webcom_postserver();

Not on serverlist. What swatman says.

If you want to change the name of SpeedKart you need to change more than just the zip file and namecheck names. I would recommend editing the files contained within your SpeedKart and using a find and replace all tool to change all instances of 'speedkart' to whatever you changed the name of the zip file to.
