It is the same with the free slot filter. You have to choose whether you think people are filtering on 1-5, 6-10 or 10+ and adjust your server size to cater to one of those.

I just read the R12 Server documentation and apparently I was mistaken with my above statement. Only the Preset, Game Mode, Maps and Game (Base & B2K) have an effect on quickmatch. At least, that is what the document says.

No idea, man. If you read through the code, you'd see that this makes no sense. Joining players are held in an array and they're automatically removed after 30 seconds. As such, this shouldn't happen.

I'm gonna restart the plugin and check if it starts stockpiling again... I'll let you know.

 

EDIT: restarting helped... A bit. I think it's starting to pile up again. I'm getting loads of joins, thats correct, but the plugin still seems to keep some randomly. I'll try to investigate further =)

I don't know why PRoCon didn't call them "Alt" or "Medium", since all of the new maps are Conquest Assault in all sizes.

Right, but I mean for the gametype. In the list, the gametype should still be "Conquest Small". Calling it "Conquest Assault" is misleading.

Can you add this plugin to the "packages list" inside the procon program?

I experimentent this morning and confirmed the latest BF3 documentation seems to be true. The only filters quickmatch uses are Preset, game mode, maps and base or karkand. The open slot count or server size does not factor in. I then joined a bunch of servers using quickmatch to see if it was trying to fill the almost servers over the lesser populated ones and it put me in servers of varying free slot counts. I kept a close eye on the slot count knowing that servers are using this plug-in to see if it made a difference.

 

Here is the player count and slot count on each try. I'm using Normal/Conquest Large on B2K:

 

4/4, 31/64, 32/32, 1/4, 1/4, 32/32, 1/20, 1/4, 33/64, 5/8, 2/16, 2/4

 

It seems completely random to me but I did notice that only twice did I join a server with 64 slots and they were both already half full. That part disturbs me as I'm trying to populate a 64 slot server. Based on my small test it would seem worthwhile to use this plug-in to get to 32 players for quickmatch joins but I'm worried about missing the guys joining through the server browser that set their filter to a 64 player slot count.

 

Thoughts?

From what I've read on the forums, and from stuff posted by DICE staff, the QuickMatch system only caters to default-ish server configs that aren't running 64player maps and are at least half full. I also notice that it sometimes doesn't kick in full-force until I'm at about 8 players, but I am not using this plugin, I'm using NFO's version that is built in to their server admin control panel which is pretty much the same thing.

 

As for there being a difference between slot adjuster being on or off, what little experimenting I did showed that traffic came a little quicker with it on.

I just changed the new variable to 64 to test it out and see if that allows more people to join. Earlier today I watched the server go from 6 players to 64 in under 6 minutes. That was using the last version of this plugin.

 

I don't know if this was some quirk or if there is something that cuts 64 players to 32. Just a heads up. I'll keep checking.

 

And unfortunately I don't have a log to post.

The new variable only controls the max for that specific game mode. If you're not running that game mode, it shouldn't have any effect. It's difficult to say what actually happened.

Anyone else getting this or have i dropped a clanger and not setup properly.

P.s im using conquest large and Conquest assault, max slots 48.

Sounds like the round started with a max of 8 players. Restart the round and allow the plugin to temporarily set the max to 48. If that doesn't work, you'll need to provide some logs.

Wow really? How much do you pay for your hosting? We use www.branzone.com to host ours.. it's only $2.99 month and we have full access to it. I would consider moving to them or another host.

Adaptive maps. Have two sets of maps to load. One 32 one 64.

 

When server population is below 36. Players use the 32 player maps. Whn it's above that the next map becomes a 64 player map and then rotates your 64 player map pack. When population falls below 36 next

Map is 32

@falcon please add this to the packages list inside of procon so people can install it without manualy unzippen/uploading

What package list are you referring to? Do you mean the list of loaded plugins? We have no control over what Phogue chooses to include with each release of PRoCon. I recommend switching to a host that provides filesystem access, such as branzone or rconhostingservices.

Our other 32 slots server wont fill at 0/4, should I be setting it at 0/2?

  • 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.
