Viva K! You are my number #1 bug finder! Where were you during the testing phase?

I think I joined beta testing right before plugin entered final version, hehehe.

 

Glad I could help, I'll try this new version right now and report any issues I find, huge thanks for your work!

In Procon it shows "MULTIbalancer - 1.0.1.0" instead of 1.0.2.0 haha, but I guess that can wait until another version is released.

What do you mean? It shows MULTIbalancer - 1.0.2.0 to me in the Details tab.

 

EDIT: DAMMIT, I pushed the wrong version. It's corrected now. Sorry, everyone who has already installed should do so again. Apologies for the mixup, I know it requires a Procon restart and that is disruptive for your servers.

 

IF YOU HAVE 1.0.1.0, PLEASE DOWNLOAD AGAIN

RoundKills is total number of kills made by this player in the round.

 

RoundKPM is the kills per minute made by this player in the round.

 

It's analogous to RoundScore vs. RoundSPM.

Thanks for the explanation. I was just confused because KPM scrambling was announced in change log for 1.0.2.0 but I was running 1.0.1.0.

That's strange. Go to Section 8, Conquest Large, and try Determine Strong Players By. Same thing?

 

EDIT: It's possible the menu is scrollable. Pop up the menu and press the down arrow key on the keyboard and keep going past PlayerRank. Do you see RoundKPM now?

 

Also double-check that you have 1.0.2.0 installed by looking at the Details tab. What does it say at the top?

Did you also restart your procon client after updating the plugin?

Are you saying that you also don't see RoundKPM? I'd like confirmation one way or the other from everyone who installed 1.0.2.0. Do you see RoundKPM or not?

 

EDIT: Thanks EBassie! I was going to lose my mind!

Yes, just installed the newest version, and I can see the following:

I'm wondering what works best for CQL.

no, i had a stupid question but i removed it.

 

everything is awesome.

 

just can you make the plugin saves logs into a special file other than chat.log or plugin.log

 

 

information like end of round report and all kind of balancing/unstack with round status (no round status spam just put round status with the unstack/balancing).

 

easier to access than waiting for a whole day to open the files.

Edit:

 

I checked and they are correct:

 

[18:35:34] MB > Doruko666: *** MOVED Doruko666 to unstack teams ...

 

That player has tag "PVTA" and was in same squad as player "Retamal1990" with same clan tag.

I definitely need to see a Debug Level 7 plugin.log to understand what is going on. I moved the check well ahead of the unstacking code, so I'm not sure what could cause that to happen.

 

Just a sanity check: Same Clan Tags In Squad is set to True, correct?

 

EDIT: Ah, a possible explanation. Doruko666 has two tags. On PC he is PVTA but on XBox he is SDI. It is possible the plugin picked up the SDI tag instead of the PVTA tag. Again, the Debug Level 7 log will prove one way or the other.

I did leave everything the same because of the low amount of complaints.

 

Whats interesting is this message from a member (before I installed the newest version)

It kept my buddy's and I in the same squad even when it swapped us sides

sooo not sure if its relevant about the keep clan/sqad/tags/ or whatever it is you guys are discussing here but it apparently works for this server;

US had around 1500 while RU had something like 600.

 

RU team was able to base rape the US and win.

you can see RU team had 4xxK total score while US has something around 220k.

 

i think ticket loss rate will be able to determine how the teams are doing and not over-unstack or over buff the losing team.

You can 'export' your settings from the plugin itself. At section 9 there is an option called "show in log".

People are most interested in section 3, 4 and 6 and one of the gamemodes

 

To 'export' your 'global' settings, type the section you want to show with "gen 3". (for section 3)

To 'export' the gamemode settings, type: "gen cl" for CQ Large (one of: cs, cl, ctf, gm, r, sqdm, sr, s, tdm, u)

 

You can copy and paste the output in this topic.

Also, when you post some kind of observation or problem report in this thread, include what map/mode, how many players, and max tickets. Thanks!

Because in the end I want to encourage people to play on our TeamSpeak server. If they're not playing with us, or are just sticking to themselves, it's not as important to keep them together. The TeamSync plugin does print (every few seconds) who is currently on TeamSpeak and matches them up with who is on the game server.

 

In addition to the end of round balancing, knowing who is playing with who during the round might be useful as well. This way we don't get the problem of having 12 people all using voice on the US team, and then not having any voice players on the RU team. This would lead to a better balanced game as well.
