Advanced In-Game Admin and Ban Enforcer - AdKats


Message added by Prophet731,

If you've been banned from a server then you will need to appeal the ban with the owners/community of that server. We do not control any bans done on servers that utilize AdKats as all bans are local to that server.

1. Entries in that table are never removed, they just expire.

2. That column with the text isn't updated constantly, only when they attempt to join the server. If they join now, it will expire the ban and let them in.

3. All information is posted in UTC time, there is no difference in time zones for information AdKats uses.

Please look in section A12 and turn on display of ticket rates in procon chat. Once that is done you can use the values shown in the chat tab during baserape to adjust the values in that section.

 

The values you currently have set will never fire an auto-surrender.

I'll look into that one.

 

For now, please download the latest test version and see if the error still happens:

This why the location is broken?

Your layer has lost connection to download definitions/information/configs from the AdKats repository. It needs to be able to contact that repository to run. Go to the "Web Requests" section of the AdKats user manual and whitelist all those addresses in your layer's firewall. Thanks.

Wait a minute...if AdKats can't fetch the config files over HTTPS directly from github it fails over to a secondary gateway to fetch them. Can you load this link?

 

http://api.gamerethos.net/adkats/fetch/reputation

 

If not, that is why your layer is not able to boot AdKats.

 

If that is the problem let me know and i'll get it fixed.

 

EDIT: Although, even if it does fail to download them, it should not cause the entire application to halt like that, i'll look into that.

It's fixed now. It was the URI change you did when you switched it to the org repo.

 

EDIT: I've also added the weapon names json. The URL is http://api.gamerethos.net/adkats/fetch/weapon_names

The developer of the Battlefield Admin Control Panel (BFACP)

For BFACP support please post in the BFACP topic linked above.

Do not contact me via PM on the forums for help with procon. Please make a topic for it. Only PM's I will accept will revolve around any website issues.

Then restart layer again. The layer work just fine. But if I upload the adkats.cs to it. It will stop working.

 

Any ideas? Or where I can find the log file?

Two groups will be created.

 

statlist_populatorpastweek_top10

statlist_populatorpastweek_top10_users

 

The first will contain all players who have populated. The second will contain only players who are also on the user list, so admins and whatever other roles you've created.

 

All entries for these two groups will be overwritten in the db when the new ones are posted.

 

HOWEVER, i need to first update the special player table to accept groups longer than 30 characters.

Any timeline for this feature? :smile:

Only one other person had seen this issue, so I didn't push the fix to everyone yet. Please try using the test version here:

 

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Ad...test/AdKats.cs

 

Just replace the contents of the original .cs with the contents at that link.

 

Let me know if this fixes your problem.

  • 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.
