Questions on mEAn mod.
 
Okay, I visited the page hoping to find out what this is, but I still have an unanswered question, or a problem that I hope you can help me to resolve.

I plan on running a dedicated bot server, letting the bots play while we play another game, this is just so we don't have to restart my machine into a server each time (Creating a game in other words) just having one running.
HOWEVER, that was the description, here is the question:

Since it is running dedicated, and I have no monitor connected, can this mod give me admin access from my computer which is on the server as a client to give commands, set nextmaps time left and regular server commands? As well as kicking bots?
Because thats what I need.
Okay, perhaps more than one question, I hope you can help me on this.
It is not internet play, it is a small LAN play between me and friend who plays CS cooperatively against bots.
PODbot to be exact.

Yes, with mEAn you can do everything you are asking for. You have to set yourself up as an admin or server operator in the users.cfg file, that will give you full remote access to the server. Any commands not directly available through mEAn can be run through the command m_exec - I recommend that you set up .cfg scripts to easily reconfigure your server. mEAn is designed spcifically for administrating a bot server, so of course you can kick bots, but you can do a whole lot more than that, such as have the server automatically kick/add bots for you.

But first, you gotta :RTFM:

:D

I did :RTFM: , BUT, I thought the answers there wasn't exactly clear enough, so I had to ask. Thanks for clearing it up, btw, I did read it twice ;) , I am one of those who reads the manuals and docs before I do something, guess it is just me? :(

Not really, the manuals could be made a lot better.

Ya it took me a bit before I found the serverside commands that are used in the HLDS console. :D
