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.

The existing issue for this topic on github: https://github.com/ColColonCleaner/AdKats/issues/76

i think it would be great to have that, so when i'm not on the server and join it later i can just check if someone got reported or punished by another admin.

 

for example:

 

no admin is on the server. a regular player is reporting someone who is breaking server rules using !report playerX reason.

i'm going to join the server, use !listreports, get like "PlayerX got reported for REASON by REPORTER" in chat. would make it easier to have an overview above all reports, punishes, ect.

The difficult part comes when you join into a massive problem state, like when baserape is happening and more reports are being fired than bullets. How should i handle displaying reports best in both cases, when there are just a few, and when there are many, yet remain consistent.

true, didn't tought about that. this could be problematic...

maybe just show like the latest 5-10 reports and add something like a !more command to list more. dunno if that's possible.

Try 3306 for the port number. If that doesn't work let me know and we can work from there.

Yes, that is intentional. Stat logger does not include player ID in chat logs, i requested XpKiller add that in his latest version but he forgot. So i re-codded AdKats to run the chat logging, i automatically disable it in stat logger because otherwise you would be getting double chat logs.

These are our latest chat logs being logged through AdKats. All show correctly:

My best guess is that the webpage uses a SELECT * statement to get its data from the mysql database. Because of the new column added by adkats this is now broken. You will have to ask the developer to fix his/her SQL query's

You are right, that was the problem, i changed it and now its working.

 

@ColColonCleaner

Is it possible to exclude some chats from your logging, like chat from server (Spambot, voting, etc...)?

So if i read everything correct i need xpkillers chat, Guid and stats Logger. I used his plugin already for BF3 so its not a problem to install it. My question is about the MYSQL Database for the Plugins...so when i use a Database with name "64cqbf4" for xpkillers Plugin, then i need to setup AdKats to use the same Database "64cqbf4" as XPkillers Plugin or AdKats will not work? And your Script i need to run before xpkillers Plugin is working on that DB?

 

Thanks for the grat work :ohmy:

Should be ready 1-2 weeks.

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.

Suggest you use one DB for all servers, set up XPkillers plugin, which will build tables, then set up adkats using same DB, which will create the necessary tables in the DB when you run the sql script.

 

I think.

  • 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.
