We're trying to use as few plugins as possible, so I'm trying to do with with ProconRulz.

Oh cool.

 

Yeah, that sounds like a fun project.

 

I would make sure that your code only adjusts the server size if their are greater than a certain number of tickets remaining and then make sure you set the server size to max size before the end of the round after the tickets drop below the low ticket threshold.

 

Should work well.

Question: if I use the On Join command, does the %team_score% variable work for that person, seeing as they are not yet in the game and they and not yet in a team?

 

EDIT: if I use, for example:

Code:

On Join;If %server_team_score[1]% <= 20 || %server_team_score[2]% <= 20;Do something

Can we use the OR clause in the condition?

 

EDIT again: the above does not work, but is there anything similar I can use without duplicating some of the rulz? Thanks.

The %server_team_score[1]% bit is ok (when a player joins I think their team id = 0), it's your "||" that's dodgy. The ";" between ProconRulz conditions is effectively an AND (aka &&), while OR is provided by using multiple rulz:

 

On Join

If %server_team_score[1]%

If %server_team_score[2]%

 

If your "do something" is complicated and you don't want to repeat it between rulz, you can use a temporary variable in between, e.g.

 

On Join

Set %server_do_something% no

If %server_team_score[1]%

If %server_team_score[2]%

If %server_do_something% == yes;Do something

 

BUT here's Boolean algebra 101: you want a rule to "Do something" if teamscore[1]20 AND teamscore[2] is >20:

 

On Join

Set %server_do_something% yes

If %server_team_score[1]% > 20;If %server_team_score[2]% > 20;Set %server_do_something% no

If %server_do_something% == yes;Do something

 

If you're not worried about LATER "On Join" rulz, you could do what you want with an "End":

 

On Join

If %server_team_score[1]% > 20;If %server_team_score[2]% > 20;End

Do something

 

What do you want to do on 'Join'? It seems an odd time to check %team_score% - you could just as easily do that when they first spawn

 

On Spawn;PlayerFirst;If %team_score%

Thanks, that answers my question anyway.

There is no way to detect vehicle destruction. So no.

"Weapons/Gadgets/C4/C4" means nothing on its own. You need to use "Weapon Weapons/Gadgets/C4/C4" so that the plugin knows that "Weapons/Gadgets/C4/C4" is a weapon key and not a damage or kit key.

 

On Kill;Weapon Weapons/Gadgets/C4/C4;Yell 5 %p% OWNED %v% with C4

This does work 100%! all you would need to do is change the wording for "owned" and after the %v% to what ever flaots your boat.

Well, it won't work 100% because it won't count a knife slash kill. That would only announce a knife kill where the player takes the victim's dog tags.

 

If you want to announce every knife kill, you need to include the other kind of knife kill.

the answer is "No"... BF3 does not report destruction of vehicles - all you know is the people were killed, e.g. with a rocket, the same as if they were killed while standing in a field...

Procon does not report where players are either, or whether or not they are in or out of a vehicle.

The answer is still "no"...

 

BF3 does not report when people get into a vehicle.

 

It does not report when they get out of a vehicle.

 

It does not report that they were in a vehicle when they were killed.

 

All you have to work with is "fred killed barney with SMAW" - you cannot tell whether Barney was seated in a Main Battle Tank or standing in a field when he went to meet his maker.

I have already have rules being spammed in the chat box at the mo but I was hoping to only have them show up in the chat box- When some one types in -----!rules -------

 

Can you confirm that what you said below does this or is that just a chat line message?

 

Many thanks

Enable the !rules feature, and then type the rules into the rules array. Then, if someone types !rules, the rules in the rules array are displayed in the chat box.

 

Be sure to summarize your rules in a brief manner since the rules can only be 4 lines long. If the rules are more than 4 lines long, only the last 4 lines are displayed.

coolio - added to server list on 1st post - thanks. The "On Spawn" limitation is lame, I agree, as with the "specialization/accessory" lack of data. With BFBC2 we can easily limit snipers or nerf 500meter 12-gauge-slugs sniper kills, with BF3 we took a bit of a step backwards.

okeydoke -added - "No Muppets" _... that's the most ridiculous thing I've heard, it'll never work. What about if Miss Piggy uses a different player name? Anyway I think Gonzo should be allowed in.
