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.

Population ping whitelist is set to false.

 

Limit is 105 for low med high full

 

It refuses to kick

 

What about the 'ping kick minimum players' setting? By default it's set to 50, so it will only start kicking people when there are more than 50 players in the server. If you want it to happen all the time, change that setting to 1 instead. Also change 'ping kick ignore user list' to true if you want it to kick everyone including admins and such.

Ok, so I have it set to 150 kick for all population. I have all options as for whitelist turned off. I have changed the 50 min players to 2. How long does it take to kick because we still have people with 200 pings and it’s not kicking.

 

Turn on display ping enforcer messages in procon chat, that will show you what it's telling players about their ping.

 

Also use the /ping command to check what AdKats thinks a player's ping is. If procon isn't able to see the pings then that's why it's not kicking anyone.

Thanks! I'll check it out now.

 

Real quickly, while I got you on here, I am being asked about a nuke option for when the winning team has all the flags and is basically pushing back the losing team to main base. They want some type of nuke thing where they can recover. It has x tickets and voting, but if its low tickets or no no voting then ..... ? Is there a better way? We had players on sunken dragon stealing the chopper and LAV from main base and raped everyone and people were leaving. They wanted a nuke option.

Votenuke usually turns out badly, abuse and all that. I have an automatic nuking system in AdKats but it's only designed to work on servers that run a single map/mode.

Roger. I see the nuke command. I have several admins on daily so I’ll pass this on. Thanks

 

That's a separate manual system that allows admins to nuke teams. The auto nuke handles it by itself when set up properly.

Just so you know there is also the /wnuke command, which will only allow you to nuke the correct team that's too strong. Helps avoid admin accidents.

Thanks, Col for taking your time to answer all of my silly questions. I don't know if I don't ask. Several years ago, you set this up for me and I never really tinkered with it. I got the ping kicker situated. It's really strange though because when we type a command, it will do the command but then put like 'that command is not a valid command'. Strange. Also, last night we had 5 extra players and done the !assist to assist the losing team. Again, puts you in a que. It should just move you on over. Multibalancer takes a minute to fire up. You know how impatiant players can be lol. All you hear is balance the teams! People end up rage quitting. I have been using the /moveme command as it will override assist and multibalancer. That moves me on over. And at random times, someone will be playing and it will say kill in action and there is no explination for it. I need an expert to take a peak at these settings lol. We bumped it up from 32 players to 48 and populate pretty well. I have cool insane/proconrulz scripts. We have votemap too. Got that working. Shadow with BEst Conquest servers has been helping me when he has time. We just want a fun server to play with our friends and have a good time. Too many ban happy admins on most servers. We are a fun group of close friends. We really appreciate your help. I know I do!

How much we talking? This is what we need. Our webs provider doesn't allow that either.

Haven't really thought about it. PM me though about what you need and see what we can do.

I would sooner just suggest writing up exactly what's needed, lingo a web host would understand, and passing that along to someone in his area. Leery about getting into it this late in the game, but ultimately it's your resources we'd be using so up to you.

Honestly I don't know which web host can do it. I haven't used a shared web host in years now. Always a VPS with my own stuff so it was easy to do. Honestly, not like the server gets hit hard or anything so I have plenty of resources to spare.

Quick question about the report system; is there a setting I may be missing on this? I want it to not show up in chat or tell the other person when they are reported. It causes issues. Thanks

Add a forward slash before the command.

 

/report colon taking my money

 

You can add a forward slash to any command to hide it.

Regulars can do this as well? People usually type !report

 

Thanks

 

Yep as far as I know.

@ CCC, good afternoon. Quick question for you, Sir.

 

I have User Roles: Full Admin and Guest and VIPs.

 

When I set VIPs, it announces them as admins. I had to turn the annoucements off due to that, so now people don't see when admins are actively playing. How do I change VIPs from getting admin reports? When someone !reports someone, it goes to VIPs and admins. 

 

Thanks

That means you've given your VIPs access to commands that AdKats considers admin commands. Which commands a role has access to is how it determines if that role is an admin role. These 'admin' commands are any command that can affect another player's play, like team movement, killing, kicking, etc. You can see if a role is considered admin when an [A] is in front of their listings in the role list. There is also an arrow

 

If you don't want to change your roles commands you can just disable the announcement In the messaging section, i believe section 12? i forget. you can control the announcement of joining admins to players, and announcement of joining admins to other admins.

Thanks brother. I'll update the settings when I get home from work. Have a great day. Sorry to have bothered you with that.

Ok, so scratch the weapon enforcement. I got that figured out. 

 

I'm looking at this pushbullet reporting and it says I need some type of token? What exactly is this and what does this do? I have it set up currently where when a player is reported it comes to our Discord. 

 

I would suggest ignoring pushbullet unless you have a forum set up to accept that. You can look up that service to see what it does/how it works, not much was documented around that time except for the setting names.

  • 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.
