Introduction

The poll system in Over the Top WWI allows players to vote on various actions such as kicking players, changing maps, or modifying gameplay settings. This feature can improve community interaction and reduce the need for constant admin intervention.

By configuring poll settings, you can control which votes are allowed and how they behave during gameplay.

Configuration

The poll system is configured inside the server configuration file. You can access and edit this file in your gameserver management panel under Configs. Locate and open the ServerConfiguration.ini configuration file. Inside this file, find the following parameters:

PollPercentThresh = 51
EnableBanPlayerPoll = 0
EnableKickPlayerPoll = 0
EnableChangeMapsPoll = 0
EnableMutePlayerPoll = 0
EnableCustomPoll = 1
ChangeMapImmediately = 1
  • PollPercentThresh defines the percentage of votes required for a poll to pass
  • EnableBanPlayerPoll allows players to vote to ban others
  • EnableKickPlayerPoll allows players to vote to kick others
  • EnableChangeMapsPoll allows players to vote for map changes
  • EnableMutePlayerPoll allows players to vote to mute others
  • EnableCustomPoll enables custom voting options
  • ChangeMapImmediately determines whether a successful map vote is applied instantly

Allowed poll game modes:

PollBattle = 1
PollTDM = 1
PollConquest = 1
PollSiege = 1
PollKingoftheHill = 1
PollConvoyAmbush = 1
PollCaptureTheFlag = 1
PollCommanderBattle = 1

These settings define which game modes can be selected during polls.

  • 1 → Enabled
  • 0 → Disabled

You can disable specific modes to limit voting options and maintain a consistent gameplay experience.

After modifying the ServerConfiguration.ini, save the file and restart your server. The updated poll settings will be applied automatically.

Congratulations! You have successfully configured the poll system on your Over the Top WWI server. This allows players to participate in decision-making and helps automate server management.
