We'd have to work out the ticket bleed.

is there an easier way ?

........

Having a bit of a problem with the above code.

Is there a chance with an on join that "p.Tag" may not actualy contain their tag even tho the player stats are coming from the cache plugin, and how often is the cached info re-freshed. Is it ditching the cache info on some requests and leaving it null.

 

i also have the same problem with the first spawn

Code:

if (limit.Activations(player.Name) > 1) return false;
.............

I wrote a plugin to do that, not a limit. It's a bit harder to do with a limit since you can't get an update on the number of tickets remaining as quickly as with a plugin. The best you can do is something close to a 10 second interval on updates, whereas my plugin was getting updates every 5 seconds or less.

 

Once you have established a reliable way to get ticket count updates, sure, you can write a command that would make some kind of prediction based on who is losing tickets faster.

Yes. You can use a pre-defined delegate, which is effectively a function declaration, though your choice of parameters and return values is limited to the pre-defined delegate.

 

For example, for a function with one parameter and no return (void), you can use the Action delegate. Here's one I use to send a chat message to everyone and to log it in the chat log:

 

Code:

Action<String> ChatAll = delegate(String txt) {
	plugin.SendGlobalMessage("*** " + txt);
	plugin.PRoConChat("ADMIN > *** " + txt);
};

You then just call it like a function:

 

Code:

ChatAll("Hello, world!");

In your case, you can pass Rule as the string parameter.

I'm surprised that p.Tag is null. It should be String.Empty if there isn't one or if the stats lookup hasn't happened yet or has failed. There might be a bug if it is null.

 

Is your if statement throwing an exception?

 

In general, if you are using an property based on stats fetching, you should include a test for StatsError:

 

Code:

foreach (PlayerInfoInterface p in players)
{
String tag = p.Tag;
if (p.StatsError) tag = String.Empty; //  stats fetch failed, set tag to empty string
if (!plugin.isInList(p.Name, "Res") && tag != "SLAG") ...

If you still get a null ref exception with tag, you could do this as a workaround:

 

Code:

foreach (PlayerInfoInterface p in players)
{
String tag = p.Tag;
if (p.StatsError || tag == null) tag = String.Empty; //  stats fetch failed, set tag to empty string
if (!plugin.isInList(p.Name, "Res") && tag != "SLAG") ...

well gonna use it on metro which lasts more than hour for each round, i think 10 seconds interval will be fine.

 

i have a basic idea how i will do it now.

You need to keep a series of samples. You can do it with a List, but I preferred using a Queue. I created a class that has the ticket count for each team and the number of seconds since the last update. I kept Queue length fixed at 30 entries. After the queue was full (had 30 items), on every new update I would Enqueue the new value and Dequeue the old value. Then I would foreach through the Queue and compute ticket loss per update (ticketCountUS[n] - ticketCountUS[n+1]) and divide by the number of seconds since the last update to get tickets lost per second for that team. I added up all those rate samples, divided by 30 (Length of Queue) and got an average for each team.

 

If you use a shorter length, like 6 (6x10 second interval is 1 minute), you'll notice changes in the rate faster, but you'll also get more spurious spikes, like the winning team could have a Vodnik full of players get blown up and make them look like they have a high rate of ticket loss, when that is only an isolated incident.

 

You can't make a class, so you will either need separate Queues or use a Dictionary as the Queue item, with keys for teamUS, teamRU and secondsSinceLastUpdate.

My short answer: Sorry, I can't in good conscious help people with stat padding.

I think the answer is likely to be yes. It will depend on exactly how the player.idleDuration command works, but it seems that it was added for specifically this purpose.

i already have limit ideas that i will create, such as longer idle period for admins and shorter periods for 0 score players if the server is full.

this is exactliy the thing I`m thinking of

although i would actually prefer a stand alone plugin that handles all kind of idle situations instead of oninterval limit, i dont like oninterval limits at all.

yeah when procon and insane limits are updated.

 

 

Edit : relating to ping, i would advice you to wait for a stand-alone plugin made by Zaeed, as i said before, i hate using OnInterval limits -.-

I find the solution is quite similar to clan-tag kicker as long I add my members into the whitelist and the expression to check the whitelist and find whoever using the tag and not inside the whitelist will be kick or ban.

 

but how can I do?

 

the expression only allows plugin.isInList but plugin.isNotInList is invalid..

 

Anyone can help?

you will need to create a list by setting "use_custom_list" to true at the top, and then in the list manager create new list.

 

at the bottom a new section will appear

 

List state : enabled

List name : any name you like

List comparison : caseinsensitive

List Data : put your clan member names in this format "player1, player2, player3"

 

 

and then add this limit

 

OnSpawn set first check expression to

Code:

(!player.StatsError)

set second check code

Code:

if (plugin.isInList(player.Name, "Special_List")) return false;
if (!player.Tag == "XYZ") return false;
plugin.KickPlayerWithMessage(player.Name, plugin.R("Reason"));

replace the Red parts :

 

Special_List : replace it with your List name

XYZ : replace it with your clan tag

Reason : add a reason to the kick (i think it is limited to 80 characters)

Just put ! in front:

 

Code:

(!plugin.isInList(...))

The ! symbol means "not".

The video is a bit outdate, but will show you how to use Insane Limits.

 

All the career (ignore resets) expressions are listed here:

 

www.phogue.net/forumvb/showth...Premium-resets*

 

So for KDR, you want (OnJoin):

 

Code:

(!player.StatsError  && (player.Kills/player.Deaths) > 1.5 )

Then an Action like Kick or Ban.

Its a bit late...but Thank you.....This is working really well for me...Just have to get my head around the rest of the concept of this plugin....When I get the time that is..

I have already done a similar thing and it is being tested on our server.

 

How it works:

When the server hits 11 players it adds the first six players who helped start the server that are currently still in the server and it omits any white listed players that have permanent slots on the server.

So if there is 1 permanent resident helping start the server then 5 people are added in to a list.

If one of the 6 players come back to the server within 4 days and helps again it adds them to the reserve list which has a day by day expiry. If they don't help again then they lose their slot.

 

I think that rewarding for number of rounds played is the wrong thing to do because you will have players that play allot on your server but only when its full, so they aint helping at all to start it.
