Problem Description

Issue

Trying to connect a python script to the RCON. I can establish a connection, but the server response is always BEA

Reproduction Steps

  • Simple python script using sockets to connect and send a “players” command. But returns BEA
  • Tried to use valve.RCON
  • Tried to view received raw hex:
  • Hex response: :key: Sending authentication… :mag: Raw Hex Response: b’4245ffedd941ff0000’ :mag: Decoded Response: BEA :outbox_tray: Sending command: players :mag: Raw Hex Response: b’4245ffedd941ff0000’ :mag: Decoded Response: BEA

Tried a client like BERcon?

But it uses TCP and the port is set for UDP on the server?

Huh? BattlEye RCON is a UDP protocol

But look at the response when using BErcon:

python RCONtest.py
Server message: ServerMessage(header=Header(crc32=2379398049, type=2), seq=0, payload=b’Logged In! Client ID: #1’)
Successfully connected to the RCON server.

Server message: ServerMessage(header=Header(crc32=2999315572, type=2), seq=1, payload=b’Processing Command: Players’)
No response received for the command.

Is the command being translated into a source RCON command? I am really confused by whats happening? Becouse i tried every possible RCON command and always no response, I am also handling multiple packet responses

Client (using GitHub - WoozyMasta/bercon-cli: bercon-cli — cross-platform go command line utility and package for BattlEye RCON):

C:\Users\AMP\Downloads>bercon-cli-windows-amd64.exe -p 19999 -P d915c3e9374c4bd1bbfb13ed28a7ecc1 #missions
OK

On server it shows:

22:02:50
BACKEND      : [RCON] 127.0.0.1:52060 Authorized as Client #1 | Connected clients: [3/16]
BACKEND      : [RCON] [CLIENT: 1] Received Game Command: #missions
BACKEND      : [RCON] Process Command: #missions
