rconsoft
A long time ago (a few years), I used to play a lot of counter-strike with a few friends. We used to do a lot of scrimmages and matches (cal-m). One thing we were tired of was having to find a scrim via IRC. My brilliant friend, James, decided to make a tool that would automatically find scrims for us. He didn’t just do that, but he made it so you could type commands inside the game chat and have the bot/program do what he wanted. It did other things as well, like getting the CAL info of the players, restarting the round, doing lo3, etc…
Around this time I started getting into python and decided to remake his rcon.pl (yes, it was perl). I turned it into what is now known as rconsoft, with a pluggable architecture and more features.
