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.

Okay perfect. There was an issue with round IDs not going up from zero. Now you just need to complete a single round. Join your server and spawn, then manually end the round via a command/procon. After the next round loads look in the server setting section at the top of AdKats for the 'server round (display)' setting. This should go from 0 to 1 after you do this (might need a refresh). After the round number is above zero challenges should function normally.

Did all that, I now have a round ID of 1. But still the same issue with the same error code is there. I tried restarting procon, and my restarting the layer to see if it fixes the issue with no luck. The rules section still isn't appearing either. I apologise for how annoying this might be, I'm not sure if I've done something wrong, or it's just g-portals layer having issues.

 

EDIT #1. This is another warning I get. [17:30:05 40] [AdKats] WARNING: Attempted to start playing challenge round when not in loaded state.

 

EDIT #2. So, after playing around with it, I deleted my definitions completely and the rewards. The rule section has appeared.

Okay glad you can see the rules section again, if it disappears once you start adding definitions and such again let me know.

 

As for the state management, i'll have to take a look at that after work. If you want to PM me creds for your procon layer I could look at it more closely and find a solution faster.

So, for whatever reason it's now all sorted. After another round finished, it sorted it self out. Round ID is 2. challenges are working as intended. Thank you for your help.

Okay great! Glad that's sorted. Guess i had it set up to only enable when round ID was greater than 1.

Ah, i haven't updated DLC weapons in a while. Are you seeing a lot of kills with that harpoon launcher? If so i'll need to do some research about that weapon to see what it is.

Sounds like a battlelog issue. That should only effect the anti-cheat for vehicles. Shouldn't cause any other issues. If it continues for more than a few days let me know and i'll see what they changed about battlelog's requests.

We are waiting for Amazon to address the sources of traffic, and for them to implement better systems for preventing or automatically detecting outbound attacks, as some other cloud hosting providers have (they could have such measures in place within a matter of hours if they had one of their engineers work on it). We always send an immediate notification to Amazon about every traffic source.

Those are errors because the plugin cannot connect to github's servers. Try going here:

 

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Ad...ter/adkats.sql

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Ad...aponstats.json

 

They works for me, but might not be working from your layer's point of view.

So i used workbench and i got this error:

 

REPLACE INTO `adkats_commands` VALUES(144, 'Invisible', 'player_challenge_complete', 'Log', 'Player Completed Challenge', 'challengecomplete', TRUE, 'Any') DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `adkats_infractions_global`

Error Code: 1064. You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `adkats_infractions_global`' at line 3

 

I looked for the serverversion: Gentoo Linux mysql-5.6.40-r2

There shouldn't be anything wrong with that syntax when run through workbench, it hasn't been changed in a very long time. Perhaps try pasting the contents of the adkats.sql script into workbench and running it all that way instead of just trying to run the file? If that fails you could PM me creds to your database and I could check it out.

I get the same error. I copied the text, changed "Limit to 1000 rows" to "Don't Limit", turned off "Toggle autocommit mode.". I don't know what to do.

 

I also again deactivated statslogger and turned off the Procon layer before doing actions in SQL.

 

Before that error there is this line:

DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS `tbl_chatlog_player_id_insert` 0 row(s) affected, 1 warning(s): 1360 Trigger does not exist

Keep auto-commit on, you'll need that, but that's another story.

 

Please PM me database creds and I'll look it over.

Ah, you're on an older version of that file. I fixed that issue about 6 months ago in this commit: https://github.com/AdKats/AdKats/com...24695f8ed05cd9

 

Here is the latest version of that file: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Ad...ter/adkats.sql

There isn't any system currently comparing challenges between each other, so having players compete for the challenges against each other isn't a thing. Right now I do not have the time to add features, but I might in the future if i get access to a server again.

Also so they have to be showing up as on-line in discord

Because procon is stuck on .NET 3.5 for official releases (or at least it was before a 3rd party made an upgraded version, which we haven't brought into full release yet) i can't use websockets, and websockets are required for discord interaction.

To get around this I make use of each server's widget.json file, which gets updated at 5 minute intervals and can be fetched from anywhere. This means it can take up to 5 minutes for a player to appear as loaded into discord. It's an unfortunate setback but one that i couldn't work around at the time.

 

Just wait a few minutes after someone is in discord and they should appear in the list.

  • 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.
