	else if (Regex.Match(player.LastChat, @"(_:REQUEST AMMO)", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase).Success)
	{
		msg = player.Name + " needs AMMO! Give him a AMMOPACK before he gets himself killed!";
		plugin.SendSquadMessage(player.TeamId, player.SquadId, msg);
		plugin.ServerCommand("admin.yell", msg, "10", "player", player.Name);
		plugin.ConsoleWrite("^b^1ADMIN ORDERS >^0^n " + player.FullName + " needs AMMO! ");
	}
	
	return false;

I really have no idea what i'm doing, but thought it was worth a try lol!

 

I also need to get who is the squad leader for the REQUEST ORDER part, to maybe direct the msg to him.

If you could get something like this working it would be awesome. A way for the squad leader to see requested commands as short yell. Good idea.

Yeah, i was really hoping it would pick it right up, but it didn't so, we need to get a dev to answer to see if it's possible at all.

 

Any devs out there?

Are you requesting that a specific limit be modified? If so, best to ask in that limit's thread. It gets lost in here.

 

In any case, I'm busy trying to get an update to MB out for Naval Strike then I have to fix Vote Ban, so someone else will have to help you.

Devs respond in the Plugin Development thread.

 

If you get it working, post it in a separate thread.

 

BTW, your chat codes are wrong. There are no spaces in the codes. Maybe that's why its not working? Just use @"ID_CHAT_" as the regex match string, since they all start with that.

 

You can use plugin.GetSquadLeaderName(int teamId, int squadId) to get the squad leader. You should really take another look at the documentation.

Okay, i have got the messages working, and now the problem is the squad leader stuff.

 

This is what i have so far: https://github.com/tmiland/ProconLim...d%20request.cs

 

How could we limit this to the squad? Hmm...

 

Any idea or help is appreciated!

You could use something like the following, although it's probably not the most efficient way:

Code:

// We need a list for notification
List<PlayerInfoInterface> callersTeam = new List<PlayerInfoInterface>();

// Get a list of players on caller's team
switch (player.TeamId)
{
    case 1:
        callersTeam.AddRange(team1.players);
        break;
    case 2:
        callersTeam.AddRange(team2.players);
        break;
    case 3:
        callersTeam.AddRange(team3.players);
        break;
    case 4:
        callersTeam.AddRange(team4.players);
        break;
}

// ==================================================================
// PUT YOUR CODE TO SETUP THE MESSAGES HERE !!!
// ==================================================================

// Send the message only to the players in the same squad
foreach (PlayerInfoInterface p in callersTeam)
{
    if ((p.Name != player.Name) && (p.SquadId == player.SquadId))
    {
        plugin.SendPlayerYell(p.Name, msg, 5);
    }
}

return false;

    case 4:

}

foreach (PlayerInfoInterface p in callersTeam)

    {
        plugin.SendPlayerYell(p.Name, msg, 5);
    }
}

return false;

That would definitely work. You could try the raw yell command with a squad subset, also. I don't know why there is no plugin.SendSquadYell (there is a plugin.SendTeamYell function). Maybe in BF3 it didn't work?

 

Anyway, give this raw version a try:

 

Code:

plugin.SendServerCommand("admin.yell", msg, 5, "squad", player.TeamId.ToString(), player.SquadId.ToString());

That can be simplified substantially. Any time you repeat code in block after block, you can move the repeated code to the bottom. I thought you were going to extract the actual string from the Regex, but since you are matching the entire code each and every time, there is a simpler way to do that:

 

Code:

// First make sure it is a commo rose code:

if (!player.LastChat.StartsWith("ID_CHAT_"))
    return false;

// Now select each code. The only thing you do is set the yell message variable.

switch (player.LastChat) {
    case "ID_CHAT_ATTACK/DEFEND":
        msg = player.Name + " Gave you an ORDER! Follow up!";
        break;
    case "ID_CHAT_THANKS":
        msg = player.Name + " says: THANK YOU!";
        break;
    case "ID_CHAT_SORRY":
        msg = player.Name + " says: SORRY!";
        break; 
    ...
    // add more "ID_CHAT_..." cases here
    ...
    default: // This is for anything that doesn't match any of the cases above
        // Don't send a message
        // But log the unknown code
        plugin.ConsoleWrite("Unknown commo rose chat code: " + player.LastChat);
        return false;
 }

// The rest of the repeated code is moved down here:
		
plugin.SendSquadMessage(player.TeamId, player.SquadId, msg);
// Put squad yell code here ...
plugin.PRoConEvent(msg, "Insane Limits");
// I changed the ConsoleWrite to a PRoConChat, so it goes in the chat log instead of the plugin log
plugin.PRoConChat("^b^1ADMIN ORDERS >^0^n " + msg);
return false;

Something like this: "You have joined alpha squad, your squad leader is: SquadLeaderPlayerName

 

Think of it as a welcome msg.

 

I have searched for ways to do this, but have no idea on where to start.

Okay, i figured.

 

Another thing, about the Yell to Squad Members on Request limit, do you have any clue on how i could direct the messages towards a class like Assault f.eks?

 

So if a player is requesting a medic, only the Assault classes get's the yell.

 

To kind of limit the spam some.

 

*edit:

I see there's Code:

procon.protected.weapons.add Support

and Code:

procon.protected.weapons.add Assault

but i guess that doesn't work with kill.Category?

As far as I know, there's no kit info available for BF4 or BF3 for that matter. If you look on Procon's Players tab, you see a Kit column, but it's always blank.

Right, i have seen that. But what if we could determine what class is being used from what category the player had it's last kill with?

Here's the idea we talked about as another option to the MAA limit.

 

 

Discourage MAA limit

 

Each time an MAA kill is tracked, the victim will be able to type @MAA in any chat to auto-kill the MAA. This will make the MAA just as undesirable as the aircraft, because it will be susceptible to dying the same amount (instead of remaining invincible in it's uncap to rape all of the aircraft from across the map). But the players would use their own discretion in using it. This would work the same way the @punish system works for teamkillers, but there would not be any forgive command of course.

 

This private chat message would be sent to the victim once the kill was tracked as an MAA kill:

PlayerNameVictim: Type @MAA now to AUTO-KILL your killer in the overpowered Mobile-AA vehicle if you're sick of it!

 

The victim would have 30 seconds to execute the @MAA command, otherwise it would expire.

 

If the victim timely executed the @MAA command, this public chat message would be sent:

Victim PlayerNameVictim AUTO-KILLED the Mobile-AA user PlayerNameKiller by typing @MAA in chat.

 

An optional second public message would be sent 10 seconds later (can comment out if we don't want to use it):

The overpowered Mobile-AA vehicle is discouraged from camping near its base. Victims have the discretion to auto-kill it.

 

There would not be any kicks nor any further action, just @MAA kills only when the victim timely used it.

A couple of questions.

 

What's to stop the MAA driver from getting double/triple killed? For example, say a chopper with pilot and gunner gets taken out by the MAA. The pilot types @MAA within 5 seconds, driver is killed. Driver respawns 10 seconds later, total of 15 seconds has elapsed. Now the gunner types @MAA. Since it is still in the 30 second window, driver would get killed a second time, right?

 

I suppose I could cancel all potential @MAA kills after the first one is executed. Basically reset the timers on all victims. Would that be okay? Basically make it first come, first served.

 

Should there be an automatic kill if no one uses @MAA but the driver racks up X number of kills (not counting roadkills)?

Example: Set both Teams to X tickets (using regular server ticket count %) but end.round when Team x hits y tickets.

You sure you don't want to use the Stats plugin? It gives you all of that.

 

myrcon.net/.../stats-webpage-for-xpkillers-stats-logger-plugin

 

If you are sure that plugin won't work for you, I need way more detail. Spell out exactly what you want:

 

* Chat message or yell messages or both? If yell, for how long?

 

* Best squad per team or best squad overall? And what do you mean by "best"? Score? Kills? Something else?

 

* What is "killing machine" exactly?

 

* What do you mean by "melee"? Most knife kills? Again, per team or overall?

 

* Last kill per team or overall?

 

That's a lot of stuff to cram into the end round messaging window. How do you want it to be formatted? Type it out exactly the way you want it in a

...

block. For example, chat only, no yells:

 

Code:

[ADMIN] Best Squad: Bravo (US), Killing Machine: znorff, Most Knife Takedowns: animal2323
[ADMIN] Last Kill: DEDAX111 (US)

EDIT: Melee might not be possible. That's not a per-round stat that Insane Limits tracks. It might be possible to make a separate limit to track melee kills, but the problem is that there is no way to reset the counters, since you want the stats to be posted after the end of the round, which is the normal time to reset counters.

Hello, I'm looking for a script that will perform an admin yell and admin chat to all players when one team has 50% (or any configurable percentage) that the opposing team does (ie: 350 vs 700 tickets). The yell/chat should also not occur if the total tickets in the game/on a team are below a certain configurable percentage (20% for example).

 

I want to use this as a way to inform players in a completely lopsided Conquest game that they can utilize the !surrender command (created by PapaCharlie on one of the first pages of the thread).

 

It would probably even be more awesome if there is a minimum ticket gap size before the message would be enabled as well.

 

This might also be something that could be added onto the current !surrender limit.

 

Thanks for any help guys.
