Yeah, you can't enforce that automatically, you'll need admins in game/spectator.

That's the reason we usually try to shy away from restrictions that can't be enforced by an autoadmin, generally they make fewer mistakes, and also open up less chances for abuse. We've also found very specific rules like that make for a much more angry playerbase when people step out of line, which again leads to issues.

 

If you have a trusted admin base who is online the majority of the time to deal with those issues, that's fine, otherwise I would strongly suggest finding another way to mitigate the problem.

 

What if you only allowed lock on missiles like javelins/stingers/igla/aamine, then you know they are firing at a vehicle. But then you run into the problem of countermeasures like smoke being overpowered because straight rockets cant be used.

 

I don't know man, that's a really strange case.

That's another story then, changing rules of a server after that much grinding wouldn't be good. Always looking for improvement though . Ours are up there as well, contesting #1 not long ago.

I am looking into your Special role Features & thinking i could use a Role "VIP" to automate Reserved List.

 

Could a PHP/SQL script alone do the following?

1. A player donates to our Servers, my current system keeps a record of the player name & Money provided.

 

2. After Donation is complete.

 

3. a SQL script searches with the player name Variable i provided & Adds their Solider to VIP Role via playerid/Playername?

 

4. Then checks my Money Variable & increases expiration date by 1 Month for every 1 pound?

 

it would be a really nice for automation.

Let me know if this is possible, might bung you some for it

On a side note is it currently possible to add Players to a Special Role via BFadmin?

cant remember seeing one?

Yeah, that's why there is an adkats_specialplayers table. That's where they can be added to any specialplayer group, with qualifications and automatic expiration dates. Just add their player with the appropriate group key. AdKats pull from that table when it updates the user list, 5 minute intervals.

 

All valid group types are loaded from here on startup: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Ad...ialgroups.json

Both of these are caused by the same thing. I've made some improvements to the spambot, but empty messages cause it to error out. I'll be working on it.

This might require a patch to stat logger. It happens when AdKats must create a new player in the database and to assign an ID to them, but stat logger also tries to create it and doesn't include any code to handle the player already being there....

thanks

so does this cause any issue with the player stats?

If anything it might cause their first round's stats to not be logged. I'm still looking into it but my plate is full right now.

Im thinking of multi balancing top vehicle players using dispersion list to make the sides more even. on heavy vehicle fights

 

other than adding the Air/boat etc do you think this Query should be sufficient? or can see a way to improve it?

 

EDIT it does not work

 

 

SELECT *

FROM anarchyg_data.tbl_weapons, tbl_playerdata, tbl_weapons_stats

WHERE Damagetype = "vehiclelight" OR Damagetype = "vehicleheavy" AND kills > "200"

ORDER BY Kills;

also regarding the new weapons do we have to wait for a Procon stats plugin update for support or is down to adkats only?

 

no damage stats for x weapon

It will be a little while before I can look into this, a few things before it.

Double nukes are not an option at this time. If you would like this, make an issue on github for it.

If someone posts damage stats from a reliable source for each of the above weapons i'll add them tonight. Otherwise need to wait for official damage stats for them.

3 people have sent this issue in the last couple days. I know it exists, but I can't do anything until the internet is connected at my new place, which will be tonight. Everything has been up in the air this past week between moving and overtime at work.

No problem, we will wait!

 

I wanted to ask, plugin metabans and metabans in adkats in conflict with each other? I installed in the plugin "send bans in the reason contains one of the following Wor" and provides a list of words, but when you turn the settings Enforsed Bun line changes automatically Dont Propagaite my Buns. Whether it is possible to do a search on through adkats?

When you ban players in AdKats while the ban enforcer is active, the bans never hit the server ban list (you lose information when they are posted that way). When bans never hit the server ban list they aren't picked up by metabans, because that list is what metabans monitors. This is why a separate function is available to link and send ban updates to metabans. That is all it does, add/update/remove bans, you still need to run the full metabans plugin.

How long ago were they last in the server before that command was issued? Was the layer rebooted between when they were last in the server and when you issued that command?
