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.

here's a few with that setting:

 

Hacking/Cheating HSK Automatic Ban [uMP45-75-114-86]

 

Hacking/Cheating HSK Automatic Ban [ACE23-43-367-159]

 

I'll move HSK back to 50 if this is for the best

Like I told others, dont TRY to get people banned. We have caught countless hackers with the default settings (50 and 50) with very very minimal false positives, and I would suggest those settings to all others who use the system.

It would be in adkats_records_main, look through the source_name column for the admin names issuing the commands.

Can this be used if i am getting the error

 

Code:

SQL-query:

DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS  `tbl_chatlog_player_id_insert` $$

MySQL :

#1419 - You do not have the SUPER privilege and binary logging is enabled (you *might* want to use the less safe log_bin_trust_function_creators variable)
It does create the procedure, i can execute it manually, but for some reason it refuses to work when i try to run the full query in the .sql file.

 

Already contacted host, they said they can't give more rights to the admin user i am already running :sad:

That trigger is the most important part, it actually fills the IDs. Try just this, maybe it's just blocking your ability to drop triggers, not create them:

 

DELIMITER $$

CREATE TRIGGER `tbl_chatlog_player_id_insert` BEFORE INSERT ON `tbl_chatlog`

FOR EACH ROW BEGIN

SET NEW.logPlayerID = (SELECT `PlayerID` FROM `tbl_playerdata` WHERE `SoldierName` = NEW.logSoldierName LIMIT 1);

END

$$

DELIMITER ;

any ideas?

 

all 5 server we have running this share same everything. so im a bit fuzzled why only 1 server gives this back ?

Hmmm, the roles weren't loaded, database lag during startup most likely. I'm assuming you tried restarting the layer and that hasn't fixed the issue?

Hey, thanks.

 

But unfortunately i am getting the same error. Do you have any other options to try by any chance? I asked the hoster about this, and they said they can't give more rights since it's a shared platform.

 

Even tried setting up a local mysql and setting everything up on there. Which went fine, but as soon as i try to export it over, i am getting the same errors again :sad:

70 would've been ridiculous, you'd miss a s**t ton of hacks but I have mine at 40 and DPS at 30, DPS I may raise up a bit more, just experimenting with how to read the auto bans correctly. I get how to read the DPS now but how do you correctly read the HSK from the numbers?

Ask them if they can run the setup script on your database.

I released with those values since it would cause 0 false positives, a safe release value. It's your job to find the values you deem valid. The suggested values are 50 and 50.

Either that or hoping they can set it too--log-bin-trust-function-creators which would eliminate the need for the SUPER. Fingers crossed.

 

Awesome to see how far you have come with your plugin compared to the early releases.

 

Thanks again.

Seems the install wasn't complete. You are missing a column.

Which version of stat logger are you using?

Just want to tell you.

The only thing i feed for the general public is "Server Time Offset", which is changed to operate in UTC time. That setting will not affect which players get their stats logged. Also, when you turn it off the setting stays, so disabling "Feed Stat Logger Settings" would not have changed your logging in any way.

Just thought about this because of you told me the thing with the reserved slots in another thread. This is why I tried this option. And it works. I don't know why... :sad:

It's already there. Did you update to the latest version here

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.

Right... 150% > 130%, not seeing the issue here. I'm more worried about his 92% hsk with an automatic pistol.

  • 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.
