Yes, it can disable any weapon specifically for each vehicle. You can have it ban heatseekers on helicopters without banning them on jets.

You can set it up to only act on people who have killed with the bad loadouts. For example getting a kill with a tank while they have thermal equipped. Once they get a kill with that bad loadout, they must change the loadout, or the system will keep killing them.

If BF1 does come out with support for RCON i'll be helping with that transition, for both Procon itself, and with my plugins. It's just the prospect that this is the end of RCON support, or procon in general, that really kills my interest in keeping things updated/fresh.

I can understand your thoughts and feelings as you posted them. But I also would expect that since a lot of people have trusted you and in fact made donations to you for this plugin that you would honor that and continue to work on this program and Adkats until the day BF1 comes out at the least.

 

I understand you are busy with other life issues but as a professional I would like to see you stay interested in your projects that have made our jobs as admins and server owners so much easier. It is so frustrating to have plugin created by people and then dropped and forgotten and then we are stuck with programs that no longer work as intended.

 

Until the day Dice announces what it is going to do with BF1 regarding private server owners, I would expect you to continue your great work.

 

Don't give up on us just yet!!!

 

Just want you to know that I appreciate your efforts and admire your work.

 

Thank you.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not gone. If something serious comes up I always work to rectify it. I'm more talking about the nice features or enhancements people have requested over time, and the things I myself want to implement, both of which is quite the backlog at this point. I just don't have the time to constantly upgrade/enhance the plugin with new things like I used to. Of course if something is broken it gets fixed, especially for LRT, for which I've required purchase to access.

The gist of it for infantry: Deny on trigger denies that weapon/accessory for problem players and players you've manually marked, deny on spawn denies that weapon for everyone except admins and reputable players.

 

Okay, so instead of this being for "problem players", because I don't want to mark everyone as a problem player, instead just not allow all players to spawn in with a shotgun. I don't see the option to not allow at spawn for all players.

 

8A. Denied Item Kill Messages:

 

'*ItemIdentifier Kill Message' - The specific message sent to players when they are slain for having this item in their loadout.

 

How do I get this option? It's not on the list. It's probably something simply I a missing/not seeing? I have it set to yes/true when it ask me to intergrate with AdKats.

Sorry missed this. Do you have them set to deny on trigger or deny on spawn? Set them to deny on both. Also check to make sure you don't have your map specific settings enabled.

The actual version is 2.0.7.6 maybe an update might help?

I do not see an option to update. Any help on this?

 

Automatic Updates

 

AdKats is set up to automatically update itself when stable releases are made, so there is no need to upload newer versions to your layer once you are running it. Once the update is automatically downloaded and patched, all it requires is a Procon reboot to run the updated version. Admins will be informed of available updates when they are published, or if the plugin was able to automatically update, that the Procon instance needs to be rebooted. The automatic update process can be disabled for those who want to manually update, but it is enabled by default.

 

Procon restarted. Same version ... ?

Make sure you're signed into your github.com account, then go here:

 

https://github.com/AdKats/AdKats-LRT...r/AdKatsLRT.cs

 

If you aren't signed in, it will 404.

 

Press ctrl+s and save it as AdKatsLRT.cs, that is the updated plugin, upload it to your layer.

 

otherwise just copy the token in the URL and paste it into the LRT update setting in AdKats, A16 i believe? And it will update for you.

All I have is an 8A.

Then you haven't been given access to the LRT repository on that account. Please send me your account name and we can start that process over again.

In short, no, the plugin does not cover that. The plugin can control what weapons they can have equipped while in the chopper, but not usage of the choppers themselves.

 

Usage of vehicles as a whole should be monitored with a on-kill auto-admin, such as proconrulz or insane limits. Just punish on all kills with the choppers and people will get the idea.

  • 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.

    • Added ability to disable the new API check for player country info


      Updated GeoIP database file


      Removed usage sending stats


      Added EZRCON ad banner



      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.

      procon.private.options.UseGeoIpFileOnly False
      procon.private.options.BlockRssFeedNews False

    • 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.
