Propose battle
You can use the propose battle command (see below) to propose a battle with certain characteristics, which will be hosted and populated once a number of players have accepted to join. The command will show a link, that has to be clicked by other players to accept the proposal. By default the game will be hosted with a password, but you can use !password to make the game public. For other useful commands check above.
- !proposebattle' can be followed by the parameters minelo, maxelo, minsize and maxsize. For example '!proposebattle maxelo=1600 minsize=6 maxsize=6' would propose a six player game for players with rating (maximum of teams and MM) below 1600.
- !endproposal stops a proposal and prevents people joining a hosted game if they have the link.
Note: proposal links do not work until the proposer looks at the lobby, due to command buffering while in-game.
Advanced Options
Left of the current map preview there is a button; Adv. Options.
Here you will be able to change the game settings in many ways. For example set a metal multiplier, or allow players to spawn anywhere on the map.
Disabling Units
In Adv. Options, tab named "Start"
Enter in the name of a particular unit from the List of All Units. Separate multiple entries with the + symbol.
Playing Unsuported Maps
All maps: https://zero-k.info/Maps
If you are trying to play a certain map and the lobby isn't changing to that map, you have probably selected an unsuported map.
In order to set it you need a private/passworded lobby. Enter !password <passwordvalue> to make it private. Now go to the website and click on PLAY ON THIS MAP, or type the command !map <mapname>.
You can now remove the password by entering !password without a <passwordvalue>.
