yes, I think ventrcon is very useful for the admins.
For example all the /chan commands were just a suggestions of an admin who uses it in version 2.x, so now that it works on 3.x too there are no other limits.

This really is a great tool, although small side note i was trying to play a joke on my friend who's vent server i am admin on, i was going to rick roll him through TTS in the rcon, i originally tried to send the song threw a text file using the -f switch but this just played every line as a huge jumble of nonsense, i tried putting it all in one line but its way to long, and proceeding to fail, i couldn't find a way to pause between commands, the only way i found it possible was to make a batch file, and each time running ventrcon.exe with the -c "tts SOMELYRICS", but this would occasionally skip lines, and was fairly slow. any ideas? my thought was to have the /rcon TTS command have a sleep(3) or something after each use. unfortunately your C code is a bit over my head and i don't quite know how to do this.

I have tested the tts command (which is just "tts text") with both 2.3 and 3.02 servers through ventrcon just in this moment and worked perfectly:

ventrcon -a adminpass -c "tts hello" 127.0.0.1
ventrcon -a adminpass -f list_of_commands.txt 127.0.0.1

the command works fine but because TTS has a word length limit, when i would have a list of TTS commands like
TTS SOMEWORDS
TTS SOMEWORDS
..etc

in my .txt document that it was reading, they would basically all go at once, and all you get is jibberish, i just thought there might be an easyer way with ventrcon, instead of the normal way with lots of copy and paste.

uhmmm there is something I miss.

So at the moment ventrcon execute each command included in the file line per line which is normal:

Code:
RCON: ID 8, '' issued 'tts first'
ADMIN: Server TTS message sent by '' was 'first'.
RCON: ID 8, '' issued 'tts second'
ADMIN: Server TTS message sent by '' was 'second'.
RCON: ID 8, '' issued 'tts third'
ADMIN: Server TTS message sent by '' was 'third'.


what I don't understand is how you would send these rcon commands.
