This function redirects the player to a specified server.

bool redirectPlayer ( player thePlayer, string serverIP, int serverPort, [ string serverPassword ] )

Required Arguments

• thePlayer: The player you want to redirect
• serverIP: The ip of the server you want to redirect the player to
• serverPort: The game port of the server you want to redirect the player to

Optional Arguments

• serverPassword: The password for the server if it's protected

Example

This example adds a "joinserver" command using the syntax, "/joinserver serverIP serverPort [serverPassword]".

function joinserverHandlerFunction (playerSource, commandName, serverIP, serverPort, serverPassword)
	if serverIP and serverPort then --if IP and Port were specified
		if serverPassword then --if also a password was specified
			redirectPlayer (playerSource, serverIP, tonumber(serverPort), serverPassword) --redirect the player
		else -- else if no password was specified
			redirectPlayer (playerSource, serverIP, tonumber(serverPort))  --redirect the player without using the serverPassword parameter
		end
	else -- if no IP or Port have been specified
		outputChatBox ("Error! Correct Syntax: /joinserver IP Port [Password]", playerSource) --output an Error message to the chatbox
	end
end

addCommandHandler ("joinserver", joinserverHandlerFunction) 

This example adds a "rejoin" command like the inbuilt reconnect command.

function rejoinMe(thePlayer, theCommand)
    redirectPlayer(thePlayer) -- This only works in 1.2 and onwards
end
addCommandHandler("rejoin", rejoinMe) -- Attach rejoin command to our function
