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.

Procon Layer Lag does still seem horrendous though.

I need intervals on this. It's not all the time, but every X seconds. Trying to locate it. Right now it seems like the lag happens every 60 seconds or so, can anyone else confirm?

Adkats says it working, when you click on the plugins tab to check settings, this is just blank..... across all 4 servers now...

Any help appreciated :smile:

Something is missing from your database it seems, but i cant see where the error is happening because no line numbers :sad:. Procon is releasing an update to show line numbers, but hopefully we can fix this before then.

 

Did you edit something in your user list/ban list manually?

Since adding his name, it has decided to no longer work, and spew out these errors :sad:

 

Nothing else has changed as far as I am aware.

 

Restarting layer etc doesnt fix, disabling adkats and re-enabling does not change anything either.

Look in your adkats_users table. is there a line with a blank name? It will be the one with highest user id. If so, delete that line. Tell me if this fixes the issue.

You're missing the teamswap command in the database as it says it. Did you delete/change anything in the adkats_commands table?

The developer of the Battlefield Admin Control Panel (BFACP)

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.

The only thing I did was run the sql update to the database when I upgraded to the latest version.

One of them being a future permanent ban. The main use of this is for players you think are sketchy, but not enough to warrant a ban immediately. For example, tell them they have x time to provide a video or be banned. The ban gets enforced after x time automatically. It will not eject them from the server when it activates, it will activate on join after it activates.

Well, looks like you are feeding the players from "adkats_accesslist" still... :tongue:

If it was feeding from the specialplayers table, it would be empty. :smile:

No...it also feeds from your user/soldiers table. Every person you have on your user list has an automatic reserved slot. You can delete the accesslist table if you want, it is no-longer used.

How do i exclude the user/soldiers table?

 

Because right now, only the user/soldiers table is in the reserved slots list, so putting the userID's in the adkats_specialplayers table is making no difference...

 

I thought the whole idea was to have the reserved players in that table?

Your admins/users don't need automatic reserved slots? That is why the users table gets that...

Players not paying do not get a slot, admin or not. :smile:

 

Get more reliable admins this way.

 

*edit

And, i do not wish to give away slots to players with only some commands.

No sorry, no line with blank name :sad:

 

Have had to disable the plugin from all servers, cant even get to settings tabs whilst plugin is running.

 

Not sure why it has decided to do this, The persons name I entered has actually made it into the database,

so seems strange that is should spit errors out after adding him.

Will try deleting him and see if that helps.

Tired adding the user to database again, problems back?

Is there something in the format of his name that is causing issues with Adkats?

Terrible lag with 9 layers on our VPS. Nearly unusable even if client only connected to one layer.

 

Can we get together tonight and troubleshoot?

 

Thanks, Col.

Yep, we can focus on that tonight. We are experiencing the same lag. Come to our ts and we can troubleshoot.

  • 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.
