Or, you've recently changed settings that cause additional moves to happen. The easiest way to investigate is to use the Show Command In Log command: moved. It will dump a report to plugin.log of all the players who were moved, how many times in the current round and total, and how long ago the last move was. If you see a lot of cases of more than 1 move per round, further investigation will be needed. But I think you'll find the players complaints to be bogus. That said, your settings could cause additional moves to happen. Do you use any form of Dispersal, like Disperse Evenly By Rank? That could cause additional moves to happen which ignore Minutes After Being Moved. Are you using Unstacking? That could also result in additional moves. If in doubt, post all your settings. As a last resort, you can change your Debug Level to 6 and collect logs for a couple of days. Then you can investigate each move in turn to see if it was expected. Quote * Restored post.

Sorry, I'm not planning on changing that. The logic is complicated enough with the number of settings I already have. I'd have to add a ton more settings to allow special exceptions for when, for example, certain exclusions should be applied or not applied depending on which dispersal type is being used. There are so many combinations of all of those different trade-offs that covering all of them would be too hard. So the basic rule is, if you set up for any kind of Disperse Evenly, you are saying that is more important to you than just about anything else, including exclusions or team balance. Whitelist is the only exception that always applies no matter what your other settings are, but even that can be configured down to specific actions, like whitelist only for unswitching, not for balance (recommended).

ImportBot Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 Originally Posted by PapaCharlie9*: have a quick Qs.... is Disperse Evenly By Rank >=: set at 145... worth having on ?That depends. As explained a few posts earlier, Disperse Evenly can make your teams unbalanced. If you set it to a value other than 0, you are saying it is more important to you that high ranked players be split up evenly than it is to have balanced teams. It also may move the high ranked players more than once per round and may move near the end of the round. and does it move new joiners that unbalance it or ppl already on the team.... so if a team has 4 rank 100s and the other has 2... and to more lvl 100s join the stack team.. will it move the two new joiners that are lvl 100 or the ones already on the team_.....It moves whichever one dies first. As from looking seems to move lvl100 players already on the team when a new lvl100 joiner joins..... The reason i ask is if i dont have the Disperse Evenly By Rank >=: set at 145 teams seem to get very onesided fast..... and if i do have it on someone whos been playing alround on his team will get changed at last min if a new lvl 100 joins and unevens it.... causing rage and quits.... Untitled 1.pngUntitled 2.pngUntitled 3.pngUntitled 4.png its just the rush settings not the conquest ...... Try changing Only Move Weak Players to False. If you only move weak players, you only have 70%of each team available to move, since you set top to 30%. Also, I can't tell if you have unstacking set. You should disable unstacking for Rush, unless you have more than 400 tickets per stage, 300 if you only have 32 players max or les. Quote * Restored post.

Yes. If you have the Top Scores exclusion enabled, the top 3 players on each team won't be moved, but everyone else will. BTW, setting top to 30% has a negative impact on unstacking. It means that when unstacking needs to find a strong player to move to the weak team, it will have a smaller pool of players to draw from. May never find one. Quote * Restored post.
