Battlefield question

Have anyone tried creating a addon/mod/script for battlefield?

Was just thinking about doing something for battlefield 4 since it will beat the popularity of csgo by miles.

Thank you, in advance.

From what I remember, BF3 (and most likely BF4) aren't exactly mod friendly. Even having your own server, there isn't much you can do with it other than just choose map rotations. I'm not sure how much, or even if you can, truly create a server side mod for it, unfortunately.

I could be wrong, and please someone correct me if I am.

Battlefield 3 does not have dedicated servers; they only allow approved providers to have the server files, not the community at large. The script you saw most likely listened for log file events that say "X teamkilled Y" and then sent an rcon command to the server to kill the offender.

Ah, that explains a lot. Thanks :)
