Advanced In-Game Admin and Ban Enforcer - AdKats

a few days ago we started to use the "Populator Monitor" of Section B27-2. It works pretty good and all pupolators are transferred to the VIP/Reserved Slot list. The Problem is, that with the beginning of the use of this feature our old VIP/reserved slot list (reservedslotslist.txt) got overwritten and only the specified admins and the new populators appear in the list.

 

Is it possible in any way to have both, the automatic populator --> VIP tranfer and additional other VIPs?

 

Thank you in advance!

Yes, this is what the special player lists are for, and why you can set up custom groups for users.

 

See section 4-2, you can assign special player groups like 'reserved slot' to certain user roles, then anyone on that role will get that ability.

 

You can also add people manually to the reserved slot special player group, the command is /reserved, you can see the parameters for it in the command docs.

 

Some people have even set up their forums to manually modify the entries in the adkats_specialplayers table, so their website automatically manages reserved slots/whitelists/etc.

There is currently not a way to set it up for multiple settings for different maps.

 

But, what I could do is when you have the optimal values for metro/locker selected it will only activate the auto-resolve on those maps. Would that work for what you're trying?

is it possible to switch off that message?

Setting section A12. There is a setting there that determines whether that message is sent.

 

Keep in mind, that message is ONLY sent to other admins and players over 75 reputation, it's not sent to everyone. Sending it to everyone would be a terrible idea.

 

EDIT: Actually just checked that, it's only sent to admins, and can't be disabled.

 

_InformReputablePlayersOfAdminJoins only applies to normal player joins, not spectators. Spectator joins are always notified to admins.

 

Is there a reason you wouldn't want one of your admins to know a spectator joined?

Yes thanks. But can we activate it both for metro and locker at same time?

After the update you'll be able to, but not at the moment. I'm assuming you run both of those conquest maps on that server?

 

Open a ticket for it on github.

Open a ticket for it, i've been planning to add that for some time just never got around to it. A lot of things have been put on hold lately for other projects and real life.

It would be great! Because that maps are the cause of ragequiting in case of baserape. We don't want to prohibit baserape on all maps, but on locker/metro only (too many players complain in chat, some of them are very angry ).

I have recently added two new admins to the Adkats. I have the following settings set as shown:

 

Feed Server Spectator List: True

 

Automatic Spectator slot for admins: True

 

Both of the new admins are shown in the Verbose Spectator Slot list.

 

Yet when both of them try to spectate the server, they are getting this message:

 

"ERROR: you are not permitted to spectate on this server"

 

Other admins can spectate just fine, but the new admins just added cannot spectate in the server.

 

Do you have any ideas that I can try to fix this?

 

Thank you in advance for your help.

I am currently using Chat-Trigger Auto Responder for this but there doesn't seem to be the user group model in place for restricting commands at group level.

We experienced that issue as well, it looks like the spectorlist can only have 15 entries. So only 15 admins can be written by adkats into that list. Can anybody confirm that?

spectatorList.list only lists the first 15 names from SpectatorList.txt and, contrary to the documentation, does not take an index. The upshot is that you can only have up to 15 names in the spectator list if you set vars.alwaysAllowSpectators to false. (confirmed as of R7)

This is actually an issue that AdKats works around, but you need to make the server not enforce its own spectator slots. There is a 15 person maximum on the spectator list server-side, but AdKats can control as many as are needed.

 

Just make sure to turn on public spectator lots on your server.

 

vars.alwaysAllowSpectators True

You haven't added database connection variables. Use the same connection variables you're using in your stat logger plugin.

Ok, does that mean adkats automatically kicks everybody who is not in the spectatorslotlist of adkats? The problem is, we want only admins to be in spec because of ghosting, thats why we disabled vars.alwaysAllowSpectators.

Yes, it will automatically kick anyone from spectator if you have anyone in the spectator slot list and the joining person isn't in that list. If your spectator slot list is empty, it will allow anyone to spectate.

Yes, look further down the page where you got the install instructions.

Orchestration settings section. Turn on feeding the MB whitelist.

 

Keep in mind once you turn that on AdKats takes complete control of that list, anyone you currently have in there will be wiped. There are ways to add them into AdKats control manually or through user groups.

Remember to properly set your low and high population values in setting section 1; would suggest setting them to 1/4 and 3/4 of your server size respectively.

Apparently this is not working as you stated.

 

This morning, we have 17 admins posted on our Verbose Spectator Slot and yet a non-admin was able to spectate and was not kicked as you stated.

 

Is there any other setting that I need to make sure is set so non-listed players cannot spectate?

 

Thank you for you help in advance.
