Yeah, the whole definition -> rule -> reward thing could be a bit daunting when you first look at it. That's why I wrote that example at the bottom of the challenge help section.

 

What were the things that tripped you up at first? I might be able to improve the documentation or settings to make them easier to understand.

to mess up, took me simply some coffee ,only confusing thing was when only setting up a non default weapon challenge was trickty

like a C4 challenge combined with claymore kills (yea, i love weard combo's)

 

but thinking out of the box worked, for me that is.

Did someone ever create a viewer to open the data tables for users safely, or what is the common method used to research history in the tables?

 

Thanks in advance for your advice.

What tyger posted is correct. The first option is stat logger focused, the second is AdKats focused.

UPDATE tbl_playerstats tps

INNER JOIN (

SELECT (@num := @num+1) AS rankScore, innersub.StatsID FROM

(

SELECT tsp.StatsID

FROM tbl_playerstats tps

INNER JOIN tbl_server_player tsp ON tsp.StatsID = tps.StatsID ,(SELECT @num := 0) x

WHERE tsp.ServerID = 4

ORDER BY tps.Score DESC, tps.StatsID ASC

) innersub

) sub

ON sub.StatsID = tps.StatsID

SET tps.rankScore = sub.rankScore

WHERE sub.rankScore != tps.rankScore

 

So the question now is, is this caused by the Statsloggerplugin, AdKats, the AdminCP or the Statspage or maybe something else? I don't know and it would be awesome if someone could help me in this case :-)

That's a stat logger query for updating player rank. I'll take a look at it later to see if i can make it more efficient. However, that query doesn't run very often. Ask your database server people how many times per day that query is ran.

If it's unable to fetch their persona ID a lot of the systems around anti-cheat and tracking don't work, so the player is ejected. This is the first time I've seen this error come up. Why is an underage person allowed to enter an 18+ game?

well there are a bunch of kids playing this game...

That question was more rhetorical than anything else. However, like I said this is the first time someone has reported the error. There are a lot of systems that rely on that ID so unless there are a lot of people seeing this or it's a player an admin really cares about I won't put the effort into creating a whitelist.

 

EDIT: Also, it could just be a person posing as an underage player to get their profile blocked from anti-cheat measures.

Question. Does the reboot always coincide with a level load, the moment the screen goes black in-game when switching maps between rounds? If so that might help narrow things down.

Yes. It appears that is when the restart is occurring. But only happens about 2 or 3 times in a 24 hour period. Yesterday, it happen twice in a 5 hour period.

Alright i'll take a look at it to see if any of the automated reboot code could be improperly triggered. Do you have the experimental tools setting enabled?

 

EDIT: It looks like all the methods AdKats uses for rebooting the procon layer, without issuing a server shutdown record in your database, require the experimental tools section to be enabled. If you have that enabled I would suggest turning it off.

Yeah, u are right, that is a good reason to kick ppl "missing" persona id.

 

Another question: How do i send adkats commands from procon's chat window? is there any way to send it like @kick player_name ?

Command Settings: Allow Commands from Admin Say: True

 

Then send all your commands from procon using the hidden prefix. i.e. /kick

The experimental tools section is set to False.

Well that's just weird then. Perhaps it's not an actual reboot being called but instead an error that's bubbling up to procon itself causing a crash. If so that's something I haven't seen since the early days.

 

If you have the disk space try increasing the debug level to 7 and use the log file to see the last thing AdKats did before the shutdown. If it's consistently the same thing we have a lead.

In the procon chat window turn on kick messages AND disconnect messages. Then you will see why a player is being removed from the server.

 

If you don't see a reason then it's likely your server is hitting what's people call a 'blaze disconnect'. Blaze is the system EA uses for storing statistics, so if the blaze node for your server goes offline it will kick all the players in your server. Nothing can be done about this if that is what's happening.

Do you think this is a bug caused by EA?

Do you think this is a bug caused by EA?

Check the disconnect messages in procon, see what it says about the disconnected players. Checking the server uptime stat could also help.

According to i3D.NET's reply to me, This is a bug in BF4 itself, and i3D.NET can't do anything for us, Anyway, this is a big frustration for us.

If you can't get into the server for a few minutes that sounds like a server crash, not a blaze disconnect.

 

Check your server uptime stat in procon. If it goes back to zero after the issue then your server is actually crashing.

I have not added any kind of whitelist to that system, it was basically made as an emergency setting for times when people attack your server. Not designed for long term use.
