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.

Options:

 

AdminA acts on report using report ID in any command. kill, kick, ban, etc...

@kill 825

PlayerA > Your report has been acted on. Thank you.

AdminA > You KILLED PlayerB for ReasonA

PlayerA's report gets confirmed, and they are closer to having admin assistant status if you enabled that.

 

AdminA accepts the report but does not take action.

/accept 825

PlayerA > Your report [825] has been accepted. Thank you.

AdminA > Report [825] has been accepted.

PlayerA's report gets confirmed, and they are closer to having admin assistant status if you enabled that.

 

AdminA denies the report as it is incorrect.

/deny 825

PlayerA > Your report [825] has been denied.

AdminA > Report [825] has been denied.

PlayerA's report gets denied, their stats for admin assistant are not affected.

This is very helpful, thank you. I am still not receiving emails and getting several reports periodically and need to get this resolved. I can't figure out why I am not getting any, settings seem correct, I changed ports as you've suggested and my email works with those ports but yet I receive no emails related to reports.

Change debug level to 1. Do you see "A notification email has been sent." when a report happens?

I actually had debug on 2 and saw nothing

 

I run my Gmail thru Outlook and the suggested ports are 993 and 465 for incoming (imap) and outgoing (smtp) respectively. I've tried 465 and 587 and same result with smtp

 

[10:56:37 43] [AdKats] REPORT [694] sent on JR8355 for testing

 

no errors in log

his max damage is 72? So if I read this right, 72/34=2.11 or a 211%? From the AdKats docs, it would appear that this individual has a HS% of 136/150=.9066 or ~91% rate, wow!

DPS Automatic Ban [ACE52CQB-72-150-136]

This is actually not from a damage mod, it's from an aimbot that ends up in the calculations looking like a damage mod due to the incredibly high HSK%. He has 150 kills, 136 HS, so yes 91% HSK. That means roughly 91% of his shots get the 200% damage bonus the game gives for headshots, so it looks like a damage mod when calculating it, and since DPS bans take priority it issues the dps ban insteadk of hsk ban.

 

Priority is DPS > HSK > KPM, in order of generally most conclusive.

 

The only way he would have gotten those values is by either stat padding with a friend (our own members have done this and triggered the script causing a ban), or using an aimbot.

Also, it mentions for the Hacker Checker it has a Whitelist? I don't see anywhere for this.

Word "smoke" is in the list of auto-handling trigger words/phrases. An admin assistant reports someone for "using smoke" or "throwing smoke" or any message containing the word smoke. Autoadmin acts on it with a punish if no restriction conditions are met, and depending on whether an admin is in the server, after a delay. You will see the messages to the player describing what will happen in procon chat window.

Let me know if the 4.1.0.5 test update im releasing later today fixes this. Once updated, delete the user and add them again. Their soldier should automatically populate if you use their soldier name as their user name.

That is strange, it usually only takes a few seconds...up to a minute if your database is lagging...i'll look into it. For now try rebooting your layer as this seems like an edge case.

those are the tables i have right now, are they named badly maybe?

There is a "new_" at the end of every table. That cannot be there for this to function correctly.

weirdly the stats logger is making the tables like that. messaged my host and asked for a reset of the database, hopefully that helps...

It will automatically update the database from 4.0.0.0+, no extra scripts are needed.

 

Changes here, minus some small bugs fixed: https://github.com/ColColonCleaner/A...6&state=closed

 

Test version until proven working on 1.4.2.0 of procon, which all layers should currently be updated to.

The only thing that can be used in settings when locked is command entry and mini-ban-management. Some people had issues with admins having access to all settings when all they needed was ban management and command entry. The only way to unlock settings will be to have direct database access and change the lock setting from there in the settings table.

  • 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.
