Thanks for the reply

There is a warn command in AdKats, so yes there would be a conflict there.

 

We use pun/forgive on our servers, but don't use teamkilltracker.

in Adkats 7,

 

Would it possible to add A forced !rules to a player thats been punished?

 

eg they get punished, Rules automatically get sent him in chat. i know their was a rules issue opened but its bit different. Once Adkats 7 section is opened ill raise issue properly & fund them as required:cool:

You can make a ticket for it at any time, i'll sort out where it can be applied later.

Conflicting scenarios on the different settings requiring Low Population value:

 

What is Low Population Value?

'Low Population Value' - Number of players at which the server is deemed 'Low Population'.

So this mean that if I put 16. Then 16+(until High Population Value) is Low Population, and whatever less than 16 is not low population.

 

Punishments and "Kill only on LP"

'Only Kill Players when Server in low population' - When server population is below 'Low Server Pop Value', only kill players, so server does not empty. Player points will be incremented normally.

This means that from 0-16 players (in my case), those will only be killed.

 

Populating server and Low Population value

In the ingame chat, the server announces when it enters "populating mode"

Code:

AdKats > Server now in populating mode, with 15 populators.

So this means that it uses the Low Population value and starts counting players as populators when the server is 15+ players?

 

 

Now for me, it looks like there is a wording issue with the explanation of the "Low Population Value", the punishments is working fine as it it (which is what I want it to), and the Populating server thing is the culprit, as it should be counting players as populators when there is 0or4-16 players.

 

am I wrong?

Mine works correctly

 

We use populating perks have no issues on latest test build

My populating state is 29 players

 

How i understand it & how its working for me

So what this means is any one who entered the server

When the server goes above 29 players it enters populated state. & tells you its populated

eg > Server now in populating mode, with 29 populators. because you reached 29 players so it is populating now.

 

what your seeing is

Server now in populating mode, with 15 populators.

 

which is when the server reaches +1 above the threshold say in your case 16 players but then a player leaves putting it back into populating mode. because your at 15 players

 

hope this explain it?

 

in summary it will go in & out of populating mode many times depending on the amount of players in your server. do not trust battlelog look at the scoreboard.

 

in my eyes

populating mode = when your still trying to start the server & have not reached a limit where it will carry itself on its own. eg still needs populating

 

in essence anything

And smog, that is not how the populator works. When the server enters low population it takes a snapshot of everyone in the server. That snapshot is updated until the server moves out of low population. Once the server moves up through medium population and into high population it triggers on them with the thank you message and +10 rep.

To clarify, the "only kill in low population" setting for punishments was made before the switch to 3 population states. Before AdKats only ran 2 population states, low and high, but more gradation was needed. It just needs a label change, all other things relating to low/med/high should function as written.

am I wrong?

e.g.

 

Low pop value = 10

High pop value = 20

 

Population state:

Low = 0-10

Med = 11-19

High = 20+

 

Only kill in LP = 0-19

(Setting needs a name change to low/mid pop)

 

Population mode announcement is to admins only. Players considered populators are those entering the server during low population, and staying in the server until it goes through medium population into high population. Once it reaches high population it counts their successful pop, thanks them in chat, and awards them 10 reputation.

The only two tables it makes are for bans and commands. It also adds Procedure to addlogplayerID. That's it.

 

I have tried going over various solutions with my provider (NFO) but it's not working, and they suggested i try asking what version of MySQL, AdKats is written for? And/or a possible solution to my errorout. I also have an Import SQL compatibility mode: NONE(used), ANSI, DB2, MAXDB, MYSQL323, MYSQL40, MSSQL, ORACLE, TRADITIONAL. Should i try one of them? Which? Or do i need to modify the .sql install file somewhere?

 

My phpMyAdmin is version 4.3.12

My .sql file version is: 6.6.0.0 (5/17/2015)

 

Help please O.O

That's a known issue with the latest version of phpMyAdmin, started seeing it once they put out a patch a couple months back. Try using MySQL Workbench to run the setup script.

Also, at this time we have 3 people who are listed on our Verbose Admin Assistant Whitelist and Admin Assistant Whitelist. Also I have enabled admin assistants and enabled "use AA report Auto Handler and Admin Assist perk.

 

My problem is that some of the admin assistants are indicating that when they issue the command to punish someone say for being disrespectful that nothing happens, and they are not seeing any punishment being announced when they issue the punishment and no admins are on-duty.

 

So what settings do I have to have set for Admin Assistants to work?

 

What is the command that they have to issue? Do they type /[offending player name] being disrespectful (So it would look like this: /billybob being disrespectful

 

Or do they issue a @player report and it responds to that?

 

Thank you for helping me in advance.

Firstly, I have not touched that system in many months. I'm not sure about its current state, but as nothing was changed it should still function normally.

 

Secondly, admin assistants have no special powers, they are assistants, not full admins. The AA report handler is just that, a report handler. Everything you need should be in the docs. If you have other questions please ask.

He's talking about admin assistant report auto-handling, it's a completely different system from normal admin commands.

Please do the following. If you a haven't already enable plugin and event logging types for your layer. Change your AdKats debug level to 3. Wait for it to happen again and send me the event/plugin logs along with the name of the player in question.

 

This has never happened on our servers, but an admin group in Australia was seeing it. They don't store logs though, so the solution didn't go anywhere. I think there is still a ticket open for it somewhere, i'll have to look.

done its annoying as yesterday it was on debug 3 but had no issues since release so turned it down

 

shall update when required.

 

The other issue/knowledge ive seen is with Bfadmin where if you search a player & see comannds issued etc theirs no chat logs for that player. is that just if you use the !log player command or generally?

 

could it be any thing related to that script on installation? i remember we did sql script to fix a thing or two before that was done by the script?

Debug level 3 is the level i normally run our instances at, it contains enough info to be useful for most debugging, but doesn't spam too badly.

 

If you use AdKats to post chat there is an option to disable posting of command chat messages, if you want to include those make sure that option is not enabled.
