It's not needed. You just need to make sure the BF3.def file is up-to-date on your layer server if you want to use the "Maximum Tank Superiority size" option.

I found my bf3.def file but where would I grab an updated version?

 

 

EDIT:

updated from my local procon version, not sure why the server version wasn't up to date.

Wishlist....ability to add clan tags to whitelist so they won't be kicked for afk/idle. We have admins who idle in servers while during the day and only pop in every now and then to see how things are running. Those I want to keep. Other players who idle/afk for over 5 minutes when server is near full I want to run off. Would be really great if it kicked afk players when there were more than three (not counting clan tags members) no matter how many players were on server.

 

Always a lot to ask.....lol.

 

Thanks in advance,

As has been mentioned 2-3 times before in this thread, the plugin only turns the server idle kick option on and off (same as you doing it in PRoCon). The server itself monitors the players and does the kicking.

Is there any fix for this? We noticed this happens way too often since the last server patch, what we do is disable the plugin and manually set the server to a higher max player, then wait for some players to join and re-enable the plugin.

 

The big deal is when we have no admins online to do this, the server can get stuck at 12 players for example in TDM..

i noticed some "odd behaviour" like that too. for example being stuck on the max server size. i dont know why this happens i was not able to fix it (honestly i didnt look into it further )

a quick and dirty solution for me was: schedule a restart of your game server and/or procon with your gsp. i scheduled a restart of my server every 3 days at 5:00am (procon 5:30am), works perfectly. there are also plugins to accomplish this, but since there is only admin.shutdown (no admin.restart) some servers stay down

 

since this problem is solved for me this way i wont look into it further. hope this helps you too

We run this on two game servers and this morning when we were using the Adaptive options it got stuck to first set size - 8. Then all the players that were joining got stuck in black-loading screen with no possibility to join - although I changed the size of the server manually.

 

The fix is to run a next round.

 

Notice that this is not happening with 100% repeatability. Some days is working with no problems, some days it gets stucked on both servers.

 

Falcon, are you aware of this issues?

 

 

Thanks for your great work,

The EXACT same thing happened here, I was blaming my GSP, but it seems this is caused by Adaptive Server Size. Sad thing is it also happened randomly last night when we were in conquest and we were stuck at 44 players (22 on each team) and lot of other players trying to join getting stuck at black loading screen with the bottom square blinking all the time, and procon showed them on neutral team all the time, there was no way to assign them a team.

 

Until this is solved, I have deleted Adaptive Server Size from my server, this issue is very important, really needs a fix.

is it possible to have the plugin have an option to turn off the server size on certain modes (like the adaptive ticket size), we have so many modes now with three DLC out. i want to have a special server size (through insane limit) for tank superiority.

I was just wonder if there is anyway to have the idle kick option activated but also have a white list for the people you want to stay idling on ther server, because I find that some time the server has upto 6 players idling in error or they have just pop off for tea and left there pc running but I want to keep 1 of them idling (e.g. me) rather than activing the idle kick option after say 40 players@ 300 sec idle kick -which inturn would kick me also :-(

 

I'm using Adaptive server size and Ultimate map manager so if there is a way to do this on either plugins.

 

Any idea?

 

Thanks

Please search the thread before asking questions. I have answered this many times already. The plugin just turns on/off the server's idle kick feature and the server doesn't have a white list feature. Generally, you should only have the idle kick turned off during the initial seeding of the server. Once you have 12-16, I would have it turn on.

Many thanks

maybe you want to take a look at the BalanceSeeder plugin:

www.phogue.net/forumvb/showth...eeding-players*

 

This has the option to kick idle players once a certain amount of players is connected to your server.

What am I looking for? I don't see any problems with the plugin, but it does seem that your layer server restarts PRoCon quite a bit. This shouldn't happen, but if you can't control it, you should change "On startup, assume round started at max server size_" to "Yes".

AdaptiveServerSize: TASK -> 45 players online. 4 players joining. Server size set to 50, but should be 54. Round started at 50. Waiting for round to end.

 

instead it doesnt move from 32 to 64.. it gets lock to 32 slots.

I have update where it gets stuck to 32 slots and doesnt move to next 45 slots..

We have the same problem. There was the same same problem in past.

 

I must deactivate the plugin if there are 32 player. So now more than 32 player can join. Server size is every time correct but only 32 of 64 player can join.

I don't believe this is directly related to ASS. This plugin only uses the ListPlayers event to count the number of players on the server and update a single array of players. Doing this doesn't take much time. I suspect you have a lot of other plugins that are doing lots of other things (like querying the web for player stats, etc.) causing the lag/delay that ASS ends up getting caught in. Disable any plugins that make external web requests and I bet everything returns to normal.
