Any idea ? I didn't found anything on the forum (by the way I think i'll try to make a index of all limits available, searching function isn't so great when it's inside a post of 212 pages )

Check with ColColonCleaner. I think that was AdKats doing that.

I've looked with him and he is thinking that it was done with Insane Limits >

    return true;
}
return false;

Hmm, doesn't that mean that the SS is sent only when a player has 1 kill in the last 60 seconds? So if a good player is killing more frequently than that, like 2 every 60 seconds, he never gets a screenshot?

 

I think storing DateTime.Now on each killer.RoundData will work better, and goes along the lines of the other requests for limiting the total number of SS requests per player per time interval.

CCC kind of has a narrow band filter when you ask questions. If you don't use exactly the right keywords that he recognizes, he'll deny all knowledge.

 

Refer him to this link in his AdKats thread: myrcon.net/...advanced-in-game-admin-and-ban-enforcer-adkats#entry38829

 

It's not exactly the same thing as what you want in terms of the results, but the underlying logic is the same.

 

Keywords to use: ticket loss rate detection to trigger a nuke of the winning team if they have all the flags.

Check to see if a known seeder is on Team0 (I think it's team0_).

If known seed IS on Team0 move player to Team1 or Team2 so the balancing script(s) can take care of it.

 

Does not matter which team player is moved to as the only time the seeder will join is when the server is extremly low in population.

 

I tried piecing something with onintervalserver but it kept throwing errors... Just lost.

I don't understand how it is possible for anyone to remain in team 0. What events has Procon seen for this player? Are they just joining? Have they authenticated yet? Obviously they haven't been assigned to a team yet, and for both BF3 and BF4, that's the same as saying the player doesn't exist yet.

 

You sure the idlers aren't commander or spectator? That would make more sense, in BF4 at least. Well actually commander has to be in a non-zero team, so only spectators.

They are seen in procon as I'm able to move them from team to team manually. They appear to be a joining client and are just stuck in the neutral team until they're manually moved out.

 

I decreased the usage of the game to a very minimal level. Found this out while trying some seeding with old computers (read: like DX10 512 MB AGP video card old) not being able to load the game and stay. Or they would constantly join the server over and over never getting in to start with.

 

Essentially once the seeder is put into this state the game client does not load in all the way or even load the maps which causes the seeder to sit in the neutral state until they're kicked for idle. So instead of using 850+ MB of ram it ends up using 186 MB and not putting any load on the gfx card.

 

Manually moving them out works... but that requires someone to be there and we can't always be there. =(

Well if manual moving works, plugin moving will work too. I've just never seen that state. It is suggestive that the server actually has to get some kind of reply back from the game client to transition to the state where the player is moved to a team. Very interesting.

 

Unfortunately, you can't use Insane Limits to do it. IL needs to see the player in a team before it believes the player exists. You'd need a custom built plugin to do what you want.

I would like the limit to end the map in favor of the winning team when either team has at least X players less than the other team for a period of Y seconds or longer (not counting spectators nor commanders). For now during testing, X would be 4 and Y would be 120 seconds.

 

It's important that nothing happens by the limit during intermission or at the start of a new map/round; in particular if people leave during intermission or at the start of a map (or even if a scramble fails to create balanced teams for whatever reason) and this results in one team to suddenly have Y players less than the other team. Perhaps, if possible, the limit goes to sleep for Z seconds once the end of round is detected to deal with this (for example, Z could be 600 seconds to deal with intermission and the time it may take MB to eliminate the Y player difference at the start of a new map).

 

The limit could be called Exodus End and would work regardless of game mode and regardless of ticket count.

 

As for messages, only plugin tab console messages are necessary in the color ^3 Dark Orange please and without any messages shown to the players. Perhaps something like this in the plugin tab console:

 

plugin.ConsoleWrite("^b[Exodus End]^n ***** ^3ENDING ROUND with winning team " + facts[winFaction] + " (" + winRem.ToString("F0") + " tickets) and losing team " + facts[loseFaction] + " (" + loseRem.ToString("F0") + " tickets)");

 

Plugin tab example:

[Exodus End] ***** ENDING ROUND with winning team US (500 tickets) and losing team CN (100 tickets)

Is this like an insurance policy if the balancer (assuming you have one) doesn't even teams out quickly enough?

 

I'll make the limit OnKill, which can't happen between rounds, solving that problem. I'll also make it happen Z seconds after the start of the round.

 

Create a limit to evaluate OnKill, call it "Exodus End".

 

Set first_check to this Code:

 

Code:

int MaxTeamDiff = 4; // X - CHANGE
double SecsTeamIsDown = 120; // Y - CHANGE
double DelaySecsFromRoundStart = 600; // Z - CHANGE

int level = 2;

try {
    level = Convert.ToInt32(plugin.getPluginVarValue("debug_level"));
} catch (Exception e) {}

String key = "StartTimeTeamDownByX";

if (server.TimeRound < DelaySecsFromRoundStart)
    return false;
if (!server.RoundData.issetBool(key)) {
    plugin.ConsoleWrite("^b[Exodus End]^n: Delay of " + DelaySecsFromRoundStart + " secs ended, limit is now armed!");
    server.RoundData.setBool(key, true);
}

DateTime start = DateTime.MinValue;
bool timerStarted = false;
if (plugin.RoundData.issetObject(key)) {
    start = (DateTime)plugin.RoundData.getObject(key);
    timerStarted = true;
}

int diff = Math.Abs(team1.players.Count - team2.players.Count);
if (diff < MaxTeamDiff) {
    if (timerStarted) {
        if (level >= 3) {
            plugin.ConsoleWrite("^b[Exodus End]^n: team difference declining, countdown aborted!");
        }
        plugin.RoundData.unsetObject(key);
    }
    return false;
}
if (!timerStarted) {
    start = DateTime.Now;
    plugin.RoundData.setObject(key, start);
    timerStarted = true;
}

double elapsed = DateTime.Now.Subtract(start).TotalSeconds;

if (elapsed < SecsTeamIsDown) {
    return false;
}

// If we get here, it's time to end the round

String[] factionName = new String[]{"US", "RU", "CN"};
int winTeam = (team1.RemainTickets > team2.RemainTickets) _ 1 : 2;
int loseTeam = (winTeam == 1) _ 2 : 1;
int winFaction = (winTeam == 1) _ team1.Faction : team2.Faction;
int loseFaction = (loseTeam == 1) _ team1.Faction : team2.Faction;

plugin.ConsoleWrite("^b[Exodus End]^n: ***** ^3ENDING ROUND with winning team " + factionName[winFaction] + " (" + server.RemainTickets(winTeam).ToString("F0") + " tickets) and losing team " + factionName[loseFaction] + " (" + server.RemainTickets(loseTeam).ToString("F0") + " tickets)");

plugin.ServerCommand("mapList.endRound", winTeam.ToString());

return false;

We are able to monitor for onjoin, however.

 

Would it be possible / even make sense to monitor onjoin events for a list of known 'BadSeeders' and then wait 60 seconds after a detected onjoin event to issue a protected plugin command to move the player to the team with fewer players?

If you are referring to Insane Limit's OnJoin, I'm afraid you've been mislead by the name. It says OnJoin, but what it really means is "on first spawn". So no, it doesn't make sense.

It is possible -- if you run in Infantry Only mode. It's not possible by any kind of Insane Limit, no.

o

Yes. I tried noob and boob and it returned reasonable answers.

 

EDIT: WAIT! Turns out you can do an entire chat line all in one request, but I don't have time right now to do the code. You have to URL encode the chat line to make it work.

 

Try this code:

Code:

String word = "..."; // the word you want to test
    bool bad = false;
    try {
        WebClient client = new WebClient();
        String json = client.DownloadString("http://www.wdyl.com/profanity_q=" + word);
        bad = json.Contains("true");
    } catch (Exception e) {
        plugin.ConsoleWrite("Profanity check failed! Error: " + e);
    }
    if (bad) {
        // ... whatever warnings or punishments you want here
    }

    }
    if (bad) {

Ah, this is great! Maybe we need exception words too? Don't want it to be too strict.

You suggested the API, so is there an option in that API to allow exceptions to the rule?

 

EDIT: I'm sure you could add a secondary detector after the call returns, so if it returns true but contains X word then don't act on it. The problem with that is it doesn't tell you which word(s) it considers profane in the request.

Not that i am aware of, just found the api and tossed the idea in here, together with the exception idea...

Okay, by URL encoding the entire chat line, you can test the entire line in one request. I also included exception list processing.

 

Code:

// Exception list
    List<String> good = new List<String>();
    good.Add("boob");
    good.Add("tit");
    // add more here, use all lowercase letters

    // Split chat line into words
    String[] words = player.LastChat.Trim().Split(new Char[]{' ','\t'});
    StringBuilder edited = new StringBuilder();
    // Remove exception list words from line
    foreach (String w in words) {
        if (good.Contains(w.ToLower())) {
            continue;
        }
        edited.Append(w);
        edited.Append(" ");
    }

    // URL Encode edited string
    String UnreservedChars = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789-_.~";
    StringBuilder Result = new StringBuilder();
    String Input = edited.ToString();

    for (int x = 0; x < Input.Length; ++x)
    {
        if (UnreservedChars.IndexOf(Input[x]) != -1)
            Result.Append(Input[x]);
        else
            Result.Append("%").Append(String.Format("{0:X2}", (int)Input[x]));
    }

    // Test for badness
    bool bad = false;
    try {
        WebClient client = new WebClient();
        String json = client.DownloadString("http://www.wdyl.com/profanity_q=" + Result.ToString());
        bad = json.Contains("true");
    } catch (Exception e) {
        plugin.ConsoleWrite("Profanity check failed! Error: " + e);
    }

    if (bad) {
        // Do warning or punishment here
    }

return bad; // for Actions

BTW, I noticed that the request only recognizes English profanity. I tried merde and Sheiße, but both were false.

Damn this is nice!

 

Is it possible to do some regex to catch abbreviations and l337?

 

Works fine here too:

Have it on virtual for now, to catch all words for a period of time to see what words i have to add in the "good" list of words.

 

Could we do lists for the "good" words?

 

Like if plugin.isInList(chat_word, "good_words_list")? How would that look like?

It's possible, but if you are going to bother to do that, why use the service at all? You could just do all the detections with regex.

I put "damn" and "hell" in the exclusion list so far. Tell you want, I'll created a new limit thread with the code and we can post exclusions as replies.

 

Like if plugin.isInList(chat_word, "good_words_list")? How would that look like?

Good idea! I'll change the code to use that.

Well something was lost in translation, since what it sounds like you are asking for is a script to do what the server already does automatically, start the next round after the current round ends.
