wkCinusKick
What is it?
wkCinusKick is a module (plugin) for the Worms Armageddon
game with WormKit extension framework installed,
which lets host player to remove other players from the game (in-game-kick) easily - just by typing special command in game chat window.
wkCinusKick has been written by Cinus, and works with the latest version of the game
3.6.29.0.
This plugin is inspired by wkick
module released by Pisto, which worked with previous game version 3.6.28.0.
What for?
Usually, we don't need to boot players when game has already begun. Best place to do that is game lobby.
Unfortunately, sometimes some person starts to cheating in purpose or offending other people in game.
Sad, but one person can ruin entire game.
This plugin is for responsible people only. Please don't abuse its features.
Don't kick without warning and no reason!
And remember... everybody was a noob at beginning (me and You too)...
You should teach inexperienced players instead of kick!
Using of this (or similar) tools is controversial topic, which has been discussed many times
(read
this thread for example).
Anyway, I believe that advantages of this method are bigger than disadvantages.

Requirements and Installation
You need:
- have installed latest W:A game update 3.6.29.0,
- have installed WormKit additional W:A framework.
To install wk CinusKick, download ZIP file from here, extract DLL file and place it in the W:A main folder.
Remember: the game must be run by WormKit.exe instead of WA.exe
(You probably already have updated desktop shortcut pointing to WormKit.exe).
How to use it?
By typing commands listed below in game chat:
Main command:
- /kick# - kick specified player from the game (where # is player number 1-6).
Players numbers correspond exactly to the F-keys in chat window (F1-F6).
Additional commands:
- /players - list all active players in the game (nicknames and numbers).
- /who - print name and number of player who is playing at the moment (whose turn is it).
Remember:
- Only host can remove other players from his own game.
- All error and info messages are sent as private, to host only (if possible).
- The main message (after /kick command) is printed public to all players (including player has been kicked).
- You cannot kick player while his own turn, because it may cause desynchronisation error.
Examples
1. Checking plugin commands and simple kick:
- type '/players' to list all active players in game (the host (in this example: Cinus) is not listed),
- type '/kick1' to kick 1st player from the game (Stefek [1]),
- if no error occur, specified player will be kicked, and all players will see public message after that,
- type '/players' again to check if kicked player disappear from players list,
- let's try kick (already kicked) player [1] again, to get an error message.
2. Wrong player number kicks error messages:
3. Waiting for end of player turn, and then kick:
Other error messages
1. Not own (hosted) game:
2. Only 1 player game:
3. Offline game:
Antivirus issue and false viruses/malware detections
Some antivirus programs may report wkCinusKick.dll file as infected by virus or malware.
It is a false alarm.
It happens because wkCinusKick.dll file has been released packed and crypted by software,
which is using to pack/crypt many real viruses and malware programs as well (generated signatures in AV databases are identical for all packed programs).
This file has been packed in purpose (protect from modification and being use to cheating in W:A games),
and I will not release it unpacked.
If You don't trust me, and You think that plugin contains viruses:
DON'T DOWNLOAD AND DON'T USE IT
