TribeStat is "Front-End / Stat Tracker" software designed to work with Starsiege: Tribes. It alleviates the need for learning lengthy server console commands, while providing fast, easy access to game information, statistics, and game control.

Drag and drop team management
Easy view of who is carrying flags
One button access to server commands / messaging
Color-coded server console view
Complete mission list control...ordering, enabling, disabling.
Live player statistics tracking via DBase database
Cumulative server-activity statistics and graph (players per hour)
TribeStat-to-TribeStat chatting for multiple administrators
Extensive game preference control
Microsoft Speech enhanced event logging
Multiple server support for the super administrator running a sh!!load of servers
Automatic reconnection to dropped servers
Administrative Blocks...(block admin voting, block team damage voting, etc..)
Customizable color schemes
I've designed TribeStat to service all of the needs I've found as a server admin. Currently, it is designed to work only with servers running the base mod. However, it may be possible to adapt to other mods in the future (if those mod developers offer their help in making the necessary adjustments). I will openly accept comments and suggestions on how to make this software as usable as possible.
This is the "Server" tab. It contains your basic administration tools including the server console, player list, and team list. Notice the team message from FunkyBooger. It is color-coded the same as his name and team. However, the global message is colored separately. Along the right side of the server console are the global administration buttons in the following order from top to bottom: ListPlayers, MessageAll, CenterPrintAll, TopPrintAll, BottomPrintAll, and BalanceTeams. Along the left side of the player list are the client administration buttons, which are available when a client(s) name is selected. The buttons are as follows from top to bottom: MessageClient, CenterPrint, TopPrint, BottomPrint, Kick, Ban, and TeamChange. Players may also be dragged to a team name for team changing. The edit box under the player list and server console allows you to send any information to the console (basically a telnet input). Notice the status bar along the bottom. This bar will always display online status, host information, the current mission, and the current mission time.
