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.

LOL. just lol. this has nothing to do with your procon version. The connection from your server to github fails. This is neither related to the plugin nor to procon.

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.

This is due to something new added in 4.2, we are now logging changes in player name and IP to the database. After a few days let me know if this is still happening. If it is, i will remove those records from triggering the targeted message.

That message means you didn't add connection variables in AdKats settings. Complete those then start AdKats.

Hmmm. Is this for individual emails? Or are you saying for one email sent to 10 people, only 2 people get it?

 

Targeted players is being refined.

Stat logger has not added your server's IP/ID to the tbl_server table yet, give it a few minutes.

 

When AdKats is starting you will see Success, server IP is someIPAddress:SomePort, you can check if that IP exists in the tbl_server table.

Changes

 

 

  • Settings. AdKats settings are now stored database side almost exclusively. They have always been stored there, but now have been removed from procon's plugin setting list. The only things remaining plugin side are DB connection settings, setting lock information, and debug level.
  • Command Access during Startup. Commands cannot be accessed until the first player listing is complete, all commands issued before this is complete are rejected. Looking at our current systems this usually takes about 1 minute after initial startup. Admins are informed in-game when the startup sequence has completed, and how long it took to complete.
Enhancements

 

 

  • Added setting lock. Settings in AdKats can now be locked with a password. This is so you can give lower level admins access to mini-ban-management (and some other basic functions), without endangering your other settings.
  • Orchestration Enhancement. Automatic MULTIBalancer whitelisting for admins is now an optional selection.
  • Orchestration Enhancement. Automatic reserved slot for the AdKats user list is now an optional selection.
  • Orchestration Enhancement. Automatic spectator slot for the AdKats user list is now an optional selection.
  • Command Enhancement. Lead command can now be targeted at a player.
  • Command Enhancement. Rules command can now be targeted at a player.
  • Added uptime command. Debug and information purposes; Gives info on server, procon, and AdKats uptime, along with a couple other things.
  • Added assist command. Will move the requesting player to the weak/losing team and thank them for doing so.
  • Added spectator slot command. Will add the player to spectator slots for the current server.
  • Added reserved slot command. Will add the player to reserved slots for the current server.
  • Added disperse command. Will add the player to MULTIBalancer even dispersion for the current server.
  • Added whitelist command. Will add the player to MULTIBalancer whitelist for the current server.
  • Added logging of player name/IP changes. Now all changes of IP and name are logged for record/tracking purposes.
  • Automatic PBSS. An automatic PBSS (Punkbuster Screenshot) is triggered on any player who has the @report or @admin command issued against them.
  • Automatic command DB addition. Any new commands I add in new versions of AdKats will not require a special database query from you to add access to them, they will be added automatically.
  • Leave Messages for Acted Players. Any player who leaves the server after having a command issued on them will trigger a chat message to admins in-game.
  • Procon Chat Enhancement. Messages intended for online admins are now bold in procon chat window when no admins are in-game.
  • Added swapnuke command. This command will move everyone on the server to the opposite team. This is still experimental, and I would suggest taking caution in using it.
Bugfixes

 

 

  • Fixed the killme command. Fixed the killme command which was broken by 4.1.0.0.
  • Name Ban Fix. Name bans were still enforced if a player changed their name.
  • Report IDs. Report IDs when handling round reports were displayed as 0.
  • Time Delays. Fixed time delay for rules command before allowing another call.
  • Conditional command access. Conditional command access contained loopholes. The only commands affected were @moveme, and @admins.
  • Setting feed to stat logger. Setting feed to stat logger has been changed considerably. Settings are now only fed on the hour, and reductions have been made to only required settings.
  • Setting Fetch. Settings were not fetched initially on AdKats startup, causing any commands changed in the first 5 minutes of operation to be overwritten by database stored settings. This has been fixed.
  • Player listing. Player listing was not called automatically on startup, this caused up to 30 additional seconds where commands were inaccessible. This has been fixed.
  • Threading. Major issues with threading have been resolved. One thread was not exiting, so more were being spawned to compensate, causing eventual layer lockup. This has been fixed, and the process is now being monitored.
Upgrade SQL from 4.0.0.0 - Current

 

  • No upgrade SQL required.

Sorry, no. I need versioning/tracking on all releases. Sourceforge does this.

 

Also, you should be reading all the release notes before updating, not just grabbing the new version.

Hmm, interesting. Clear server banlist, reboot your layer, enable again, then disable. A connection failure happened during the import.

Thank you very much mate...I shall organise the way you suggest

The only thing I am getting on a consistant basis is this error.

 

Line 0: [FetchUserList][Error while fetching access list.]: MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlException: Table 'ccsteamt_procon.adkats_specialplayers' doesn't exist..

 

Is this also a GSP issue...

 

Cheers mate

What do you mean guest admins? All new users are added with the default guest role, you need to change it once they are added. Also nothing in the user management section requires them to be in the server for any reason. They need to be in the database, but not in the server when you add them...

    • EZRCON Update (9/4/2021)

      Prophet731 posted a topic in News,

      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.

    • EZRCON Update 5/13/2021

      Prophet731 posted a topic in News,

      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.

    • Procon, Database & BFACP Hosting

      Prophet731 posted a topic in News,

      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
