UPDATE: this is posted in the mw2 and CoD4 section because it has different meanings to each command, so mods dont move the thread, thank you.
About RCON: RCON is used to verify yourself in your own server on pc, it is used for when you join that server you will automatically become admin (host) along with many other admins, they use this to enable mods and control everything in the lobby if one admin decides to leave the server, this gives players a Co-Host like experience and can control EVERY host only mod in that server such as restarting the map and changing the jump height etc...
to start off,read these points very carefully
1.get a friend (or YOU) to add these commands to there patch
rcon_password [PASSWORD HERE] e.g: rcon_password CGX1
2. also get you or your friend to add a bind to the patch aswell
bind DPAD_DOWN ""
3.add this to the bind in order to enable RCON for anyone or just for you.
bind DPAD_DOWN "rcon login [YOUR RCON PASSWORD HERE]" //without [] enter your password that you used in point 1.
4.now heres the fun part, you can now modify any command that the host or you have,heres a full list of commands you can use which are HOST ONLY
rcon map_restart
rcon map_rotate
rcon status
