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.

Yes that's what it does, but if you've disabled posting command chat messages then they won't be in your database.

"Servertime Offset" (TIME OFFSET CONVERSION TO UTC TIME)

"Enable Chatlogging_" "Yes"

"Instant Logging of Chat Messages_" "Yes"

"Enable Statslogging_" "Yes"

"Enable Weaponstats_" "Yes"

"Enable KDR correction_" "Yes"

"MapStats ON_" "Yes"

"Session ON_" "Yes"

"Save Sessiondata to DB_" "Yes"

"Log playerdata only (no playerstats)_" "No"

"Enable Live Scoreboard in DB" is forced on at all times.

'Post Stat Logger Chat Manually' - Sometimes stat logger chat upload glitches and stops, this overrides that posting and uploads all chat to the database manually.

'Post Server Chat Spam' - Whether to include server spam messages when posting stat logger chat manually.

'Exclude Commands from Chat Logs' - Whether to exclude messages containing commands from being stored in the database.

now enabled feed stats logging

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.

Im not sure how your punish system works regarding the punish/kick on ban however. When the issue happened it was our lower admin that saw it. Who has access to punish but not Kick command

 

now i don't know if adkats uses his permissions to kick or uses a Global Admin. but if it uses the admins permissions that could be the culprit?

 

its just a theory/information in case it helps.

 

Ps Ping changer is now live on Server 2 :smile:

 

one question

Current Ping Limit (Display) it seems to actively change is this true_, does this just get sent to the user or is just for the chat "x got kicked for ping to higher etc"

 

just want to make sure i understand what & how it does its stuff :smile:

The player removal issue has nothing to do with the punish system specifically, at least it doesn't appear that way. The kick just fails very rarely and only on specific servers, which makes it nigh on impossible to find/fix.

 

the current limit display is for your benefit in the settings window only.

Got a weird issue on BFadmin, Live scoreboard

 

Server 1 - fine

Server 2 when watch it [scoreboard] randomly shows a red popup & live scoreboard disappears After 10 seconds comes back & repeats. every 30 seconds or so.

 

the popup is blank, so no idea why, both servers run on the same database so if one has the issue both should.

 

no error logs in Procon.

 

Any ideas what to look for?

Colon doesn't control the BFACP, I do, so he wouldn't know about this issue or be able to fix it. However, this bug happens when you didn't set your RCON password in the site game settings section. The new version has been fixed to notify you what exactly is happening when errors occur. Any further issues that are related to the BFACP should be posted here. If you need more help you can create a thread over there and i'll be happy to help further.

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.

For example its currently setup and we would use /yell name 1 that would give use the 1st pre message

 

however in rcon we set a alias to a short word for example /yell name se ( plugin requires se=message )

 

is there a way of assigning different ID's for the pre-messages instead of using a number system.

There is not a way to do that at this time. There will be in AdKats 7, but that is a long time away. All external development on AdKats 6 is halted right now aside from funded features.

Run the /pupdate command, wait for it to update, then reboot your layer. If this still continues, let me know.

We have no timeframe for v7. The BFACP that will be released with this will be v3. Only v2 will be compatible with AdKats until v7.

There is and will be no set release date or even an estimate at this point. I have no idea how long it will take, and the amount of time I can put into it varies greatly.

 

I'll be posting updates on the project as it moves along but this is a very big transition with upwards of 70KLOC to rework and refactor, do not expect it soon.

Please use the /pupdate command to update your plugin to the latest test version. That version will remove the invalid punish types from your hierarchy. Valid punish types are listed in the plugin documentation.

It checks for all tables with the adkats? prefix on start, they must all use the InnoDB engine. It looks like prophet added the adkats_battlelog_players table but made it MyISAM instead.

Forgot to force it to use InnoDB in the migration script. I've fixed that in my dev branch.

  • 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.
