From what I could tell from the iOS screenshot, you have a Kick action set, but no Say action. Using a PC client or direct layer access, add an Action for Say and fill out the say form items.

 

The Action setting is a list, so you fill it in like this:

 

Kick

Say

 

And then when you close the dropdown, it will look like this:

 

Kick | Say

 

And some limit_x_say_xxx items will appear that you can fill out. They should all be self-explanatory, except procon_chat, set that to True to see these messages in the Procon chat log.

Test kd 1.0

You should watch the video in post #1*, it shows how to set up Insane Limits. I can see that you need to make some changes that are shown in that video.

 

Are you sure you want to kick for KDR > 1? That's not hacking, there are a lot of legit players that have KDR > 1.

Is this what you mean? Or do I put the text "Used Illegal Weapon" where the #%l_id% %l_n% string is ? bandicam 2013-12-31 08-05-57-963.jpg

 

But the violating player is killed first then kicked. So I need two messages to appear in chat, once for being Killed for using an Illegal Weapon and then another message subsequently for being Kicked for using an Illegal Weapon

I don't see anything in your limit code about killing a player. All it does is kick if the an illegal weapon is used.

 

Do you maybe have the wrong limit code for what you want?

 

Here's what you posted before:

 

Code:

if (!Regex.Match(kill.Weapon, @"(U_870|U_M26Mass_Frag|U_DBV12|U_HAWK|U_M1014|U_QBS09|U_SAIGA_20K|U_SPAS12|U_USAS-12|U_UTAS|U_SerbuShorty|U_Defib|Melee|Suicide|SoldierCollision|DamageArea)", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase).Success) {
    plugin.ConsoleWrite("^b^1ILLEGAL WEAPON!^0^n " + killer.FullName + " used " + kill.Weapon + " against " + victim.FullName);
    return true;
} else {
    plugin.ConsoleWrite("^9ok: " + killer.FullName + " used " + kill.Weapon);
    return false;
}
There would have to be a plugin.KillPlayer line of code in there for a player to get killed.

 

EDIT: Oh wait, in the screenshot I can see a little bit of second_check code. You didn't mention you had a second_check as well. I need to see all of that code too.

See my edit ... I just noticed you have second_check code that you haven't posted. I need to see all the code, first_check and second_check.

Well this is a first!

 

Where are you copying from, which post? The details are important. I think you missed a step.

 

From the screenshot, I see that you set first_check to Code. I'm betting the original post instructed you to use Expression.

 

Usually people get that the other way around, set Expression when they mean Code.

Are these codes correct for no explosive set up? I would like to test it but as far as code goes, i want to get them confirmed by PAPACHARRRRLIE~

The first_check isn't quite right. Do you want different explosives forbidden for Locker (MP_Prison) than for other maps? What exactly are you trying to make forbidden and when?

Change the limit name "Shotgun Only" to "Illegal Weapon limit".

 

Remove ALL the Actions. Just delete Kick and Say from the Action list and the rest will go away.

 

Change second_check to this (delete everything that is currently in second_check and replace with copy & paste of this)

 

Code:

double count = limit.Activations(player.Name);

String msg = null;

if (count == 1)
{
    plugin.KillPlayer(player.Name, 5);
    msg = plugin.R("%p_n% used ILLEGAL WEAPON %w_n%! Next time you will be kicked!");
    //plugin.SendPlayerMessage(player.Name, msg); // just the player
    plugin.SendGlobalMessage(msg); // all players
    plugin.PRoConChat(msg);
}
else
{
    msg = plugin.R("%p_n% for ILLEGAL WEAPON %w_n%!");
    plugin.KickPlayerWithMessage(player.Name, msg);
    msg = "Kicked " + msg;
    plugin.SendGlobalMessage(msg);
    plugin.PRoConChat(msg);
}
return false;
This version of the code sends a chat message to all players for both the kill and the kick. If you find the kill messages are too spammy, you can change the code by finding these two lines:

 

Code:

//plugin.SendPlayerMessage(player.Name, msg); // just the player
    plugin.SendGlobalMessage(msg); // all players
and changing them to this:

 

Code:

plugin.SendPlayerMessage(player.Name, msg); // just the player
    //plugin.SendGlobalMessage(msg); // all players
The two slashes // turn a line of code into a comment that does nothing, so all I did was uncomment the SendPlayerMessage (send chat only to the player) and comment the SendGlobalMessage (send chat to all) line.

 

Next time, lets do this in the Insane Limits Request thread, rather than the plugin thread. That's the right place for getting limit code straightened out.

Yes, but why not used the built-in feature of BF4 for that?

 

If you still want that, post a request in the Insane Limits Request thread in Plugin Enhancements.

I have added a request, I do not like the built-in feature of BF4 because:

 

- I can not set kick message so people are returning angry

- I am using other insane limits feature adding people to reserved slots and I only want kick for admins

- I want to kick newly added players or bad players not players with high score

I want to set a limit to mail me when == 6 players have joined the server. That's easy enough and I've got that done and it works.

Problem is, when a server just starts to seed .. there maybe 6 players, and then the 6th joiner, will leave and another player will join again .. which in turn, activates my rule once again and I get another email.

 

This could go on for a while before the server really picks up and 6 is no longer an issue.

 

How can I make sure that either the limit doesn't get checked more then once in a round, or that it doesn't get checked more then once in 15 min?

 

Thanks in advance!

If you are using an Action to send the email, you'll have to convert it into second_check Code -- everything done in Actions can be done in Code, but not vice versa.

 

This code checks frequently, but won't send email closer than 15 minutes apart.

 

Add this code inside your test for 6 players (presumably an if clause of some kind):

 

Code:

// if there are 6 players ...
DateTime last = DateTime.Now;
if (plugin.Data.issetObject("Last email timestamp")) {
    last = (DateTime)plugin.Data.getObject("Last email timestamp");
}
if (DateTime.Now.Subtract(last).TotalMinutes > 15)) {
    // ... Your code to send email
}
Add this line code when you send the email

 

Code:

plugin.Data.setObject("Last email timestamp", DateTime.Now);

 

That's one way to do it. You can also do it based strictly on the player count and not use a timer at all. All you have to do is use a bool flag that you reactivate only when there are more than 12 players, or whatever you want to use as the upper bound.

 

Code:

bool checkingActivated = true;
if (plugin.Data.issetBool("checkingActivated")) checkingActivated = plugin.Data.getBool("checkingActivated");

...

if (checkingActivated) {
  if (/* players == 6 */) {
    // Send your email ...
    // Deactivate checking
    plugin.Data.setBool("checkingActivated", false);
  } 
} else { // not activated
  if ( /* players >= 12 */) {
    // Reactivate checking
    plugin.Data.setBool("checkingActivated", true);
  }
}
As you can see, once checkingActivated is set to false, it can't be set to true again until there are at least 12 players (or whatever you want) in the server. That avoids the problem with bouncing between 5 and 6 players spamming email. This technique is called hysteresis.

Pretty impressive :smile: thanks!

I ran into an issue with emails though .. since I signed up on Gmail and after a few emails that got delivered, Gmail started rejecting my sending of new emails since they claim to be tough on Spam and those emails from the plugin seem like spam, and (IMHO) on top of that the SMTP authentication was arriving from the IP of the GSP (which might be considered a bad IP for a source) .. so now I have no way of sending emails at all. I need to find an SMTP host that would get those emails through ...

Can you explain the "Send your email ..." part? I thought I was using the Mail Action from the Limit I was setting up .. but from what I can tell, you want me to send the email during the Code part is being executed. How do I accomplish sending the email?

 

EDIT: like this?

 

Code:

bool checkingActivated = true;
if (plugin.Data.issetBool("checkingActivated")) checkingActivated = plugin.Data.getBool("checkingActivated");

if (checkingActivated) {
  if ( server.PlayerCount == 6 ) {
	plugin.SendMail("[email protected]", "Hey guys .. our server is getting started :)", "Go join! --- Shai")
	// Deactivate checking
	plugin.Data.setBool("checkingActivated", false);
  } 
} else { // not activated
  if ( server.PlayerCount >= 12 ) {
	// Reactivate checking
	plugin.Data.setBool("checkingActivated", true);
  }

}
Looks right to me.

 

BTW, one drawback of this approach is that after the server fills up, if players leave down to 6 left, you'll get another email. If you want it to activate only once the server is down to less than 4, you'll need a second flag that controls the first, something like a serverWasEmpty flag. That will need it to be true before checkingActivated can be true.

Using just the weapon name inline in an OnKill limit:

Using the whole KillReasonInterface object in an OnKill limit:

 

Code:

KillReasonInterface killReason = plugin.FriendlyWeaponName(kill.Weapon);

Enable plugin logging on your client. If there is a compile/load error, it will show in the plugin log window. Alternatively, if you can Remote Desktop Connection to your layer host, look at the plugin log on the layer directly (again, that has to be enabled in Procon Options). Post the compile/load error for the plugin.

Still need the plugin.log, buddy. A correct log will look like this:

 

Code:

[08:46:07 26] Compiling InsaneLimits.cs... Done
[08:46:07 41] [Insane Limits] Game Version = BF3
[08:46:07 41] Loading InsaneLimits... Loaded
[08:46:07 45] [Insane Limits] plugin loaded
A problem might look something like this (just an example):

 

Code:

[08:49:16 61] Compiling InsaneLimits.cs... Errors or Warnings
[08:49:16 61] 	InsaneLimits.cs (Line: 54, C: 22) CS0246: The type or namespace name 'NetworkExtension' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference_)
... and no DLL will be created.

 

I need to see the specific error.

  • Our picks

    • Game Server Hosting:

      We're happy to announce that EZRCON will branch out into the game server provider scene. This is a big step for us so please having patience if something doesn't go right in this area. Now, what makes us different compared to other providers? Well, we're going with the idea of having a scaleable server hosting and providing more control in how you set up your server. For example, in Minecraft, you have the ability to control how many CPU cores you wish your server to have access to, how much RAM you want to use, how much disk space you want to use. This type of control can't be offered in a single service package so you're able to configure a custom package the way you want it.

      You can see all the available games here. Currently, we have the following games available.

      Valheim (From $1.50 USD)


      Rust (From $3.20 USD)


      Minecraft (Basic) (From $4.00 USD)


      Call of Duty 4X (From $7.00 USD)


      OpenTTD (From $4.00 USD)


      Squad (From $9.00 USD)


      Insurgency: Sandstorm (From $6.40 USD)


      Changes to US-East:

      Starting in January 2022, we will be moving to a different provider that has better support, better infrastructure, and better connectivity. We've noticed that the connection/routes to this location are not ideal and it's been hard getting support to correct this. Our contract for our two servers ends in March/April respectively. If you currently have servers in this location you will be migrated over to the new provider. We'll have more details when the time comes closer to January. The new location for this change will be based out of Atlanta, GA. If you have any questions/concerns please open a ticket and we'll do our best to answer them.

    • Hello All,

      I wanted to give an update to how EZRCON is doing. As of today we have 56 active customers using the services offered. I'm glad its doing so well and it hasn't been 1 year yet. To those that have services with EZRCON, I hope the service is doing well and if not please let us know so that we can improve it where possible. We've done quite a few changes behind the scenes to improve the performance hopefully. 

      We'll be launching a new location for hosting procon layers in either Los Angeles, USA or Chicago, IL. Still being decided on where the placement should be but these two locations are not set in stone yet. We would like to get feedback on where we should have a new location for hosting the Procon Layers, which you can do by replying to this topic. A poll will be created where people can vote on which location they would like to see.

      We're also looking for some suggestions on what else you would like to see for hosting provider options. So please let us know your thoughts on this matter.

      If you are upgrading then you may need to add these two lines to your existing installation in the file procon.cfg. To enable these options just change False to True.

    • I wanted I let you know that I am starting to build out the foundation for the hosting services that I talked about here. The pricing model I was originally going for wasn't going to be suitable for how I want to build it. So instead I decided to offer each service as it's own product instead of a package deal. In the future, hopefully, I will be able to do this and offer discounts to those that choose it.

      Here is how the pricing is laid out for each service as well as information about each. This is as of 7/12/2020.

      Single MySQL database (up to 30 GB) is $10 USD per month.



      If you go over the 30 GB usage for the database then each additional gigabyte is charged at $0.10 USD each billing cycle. If you're under 30GB you don't need to worry about this.


      Databases are replicated across 3 zones (regions) for redundancy. One (1) on the east coast of the USA, One (1) in Frankfurt, and One (1) in Singapore. Depending on the demand, this would grow to more regions.


      Databases will also be backed up daily and retained for 7 days.




      Procon Layer will be $2 USD per month.


      Each layer will only allow one (1) game server connection. The reason behind this is for performance.


      Each layer will also come with all available plugins installed by default. This is to help facilitate faster deployments and get you up and running quickly.


      Each layer will automatically restart if Procon crashes. 


      Each layer will also automatically restart daily at midnight to make sure it stays in tip-top shape.


      Custom plugins can be installed by submitting a support ticket.




      Battlefield Admin Control Panel (BFACP) will be $5 USD per month


      As I am still working on building version 3 of the software, I will be installing the last version I did. Once I complete version 3 it will automatically be upgraded for you.





      All these services will be managed by me so you don't have to worry about the technical side of things to get up and going.

      If you would like to see how much it would cost for the services, I made a calculator that you can use. It can be found here https://ezrcon.com/calculator.html

    • I have pushed out a new minor release which updates the geodata pull (flags in the playerlisting). This should be way more accurate now. As always, please let me know if any problems show up.
