you could do something like this .. (untested)

Code:

Set %ini_round_count[%m%]% 0
On Round;Incr %ini_round_count[%m%]%;Yell Round %ini_round_count[%m%]% begin! Good luck! Have fun!
## This is optional just to reset the count after (50) rounds ##
If %ini_round_count[%m%]% >= 50;Set %ini_round_count[%m%]% 0

Code:

the weaponkey for RAWR is "XP3/Gameplay/Vehicles/RAWR/RAWR". tested on map pearl market

Since their information is blank (usually) other than their name, their %pcountrykey% won't match anything. It is best to wait until On Spawn so that their information will be available.

ups, your right, even after correcting, it didnt work, only the on spawn did,, but spamming on spawm eachtime with country is not a smart idea.

On Spawn;PlayerFirst;...

 

That way it will only spam once the first time they spawn after joining.

Hey guys anyone know how to use a delay on commands? like i wanna execute a command after 10 seconds of the previous command

 

ive seen server msgs outputs texts line by line 1 seconds at a time so i thought itd be possible for chain commands to execute with 1 second delay between them

I only know of two options.

1) Use a different plugin.

2) Exec a pb_sv_task task to start a certain number of seconds in the future.

 

 

I don't know if this will work. It is worth a try though.

 

On Say;Text !Test;Exec punkBuster.pb_sv_command pb_sv_task 1 admin.yell "Test: 1 second later" 1

On Say;Text !Test;Exec punkBuster.pb_sv_command pb_sv_task 3 admin.yell "Test: 3 seconds later" 1

On Say;Text !Test;Exec punkBuster.pb_sv_command pb_sv_task 5 admin.yell "Test: 5 seconds later" 1

 

Type !Test in your server and see if it yells three 1-second messages with one second gaps in between each. Hopefully it works as expected and doesn't repeat indefinitely. Since it is adding it as a punkbuster service task on the game server, there may be a delay before it starts working or may not work as expected at all.

Nope, didnt worked. It didnt give any errors but did nothing at all either

On Say;Text !Test;Exec punkBuster.pb_sv_command pb_sv_task 3 admin.say "Test: 3 seconds later" all

 

The all at the end of say might be the trick. The admin.yell I tried above may not be correct since I don't know if it is trying to yell to all or trying to yell to player "1".

Nope, still the same. Although the command is right. I also tried "admin.yell test1 6" (without using any quote for msg part) that didnt work also. I checked if i had punkbuster access and it was full as i thought.

 

 

Edit: using Exec before command worked

 

 

Edit 2:

 

Interesting though, this did not worked as i used the same logic in previous example:

 

Code:

On Say;Text !help;if %targettext% == "0";
    Exec punkBuster.pb_sv_command pb_sv_task 1 exec admin.say "Commands you can use.." %p%
    Exec punkBuster.pb_sv_command pb_sv_task 3 exec admin.say "command1" %p%

I just copy/paste, On Kill;Weapon XP3/Gameplay/Vehicles/RAWR/RAWR;Say %p% was KILLED for using %w%;PlayerYell Do not use a %w%;Kill 100

In the rulz string array?

Not sure if it goes in rulz or rulz.txt

it goes in rules section in plugin settings tab, not Rulz.txt

 

Rules section in ProconRulz plugin settings is for you to write your own custom rulz

 

the Rulz.txt is for indicating your server rules to players when they type !rules in game

Hoping someone can help us with one more issue.

 

We were using insane limits to limit who can join our server. We had a max players K/D ratio set 3.0 and lower. Anyone with a 3.0 K/d ratio or higher would be auto kicked from the server with a message saying, Your K/D ratio exceeds 3.0, Your to Pro Bro!

 

We started a new server with NFO and now we cannot get insane limits to work anymore, when we try to set a new limit to true we get an error messge-[insane Limits] EXCEPTION: System.Security.SecurityException: Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.FileIOPermission, mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed.

 

We have posted a reply in insane limits but no one replies, seems that the plugin is dead.

 

Can this be setup in procon rulz?

 

Thanks

Bad idea - it doesn't write to rules file

When you create a rule, it has to write back to the file proconrulz_rules.txt - if it cant then it will bomb

Check with you layer host proconrulz_rules.txt is writable

wrong plugin stupid..

 

So I have posted on the other plugin page - but same deal - just the names have changed.

We have tried this code this morning, It does not work, teammate killed me with a rawr and he was not auto killed

 

Any Ideas?

It works... unreliably. There is no solution to the unreliability. The game server sometimes tells procon that the kill was with rawr, but usually just tells procon that the kill was with "death". It's a DICE bug as far as I know. Since death is a weapon keyword shared with quite a few other weapons/situations, you can't usually make a rule against it.

Bummer, So it sounds like there is no real reliable way to prevent the use of a specific weapon or vehicle

Another option I was wondering about is, What about a code that kills a player when they pick the weapon up. This way the word kill does not come into play since that first code wont work

your best bet is to use the "On kill" trigger. You can prevent of using a certain weapon with this but as stated before, RAWR has that name bug..you might need to wait on a fix for that.

I thought i could maybe use the var.preset... something like On Say;Text !rules;if %var.preset% == Normal....etc

But i honestly dont know the right way to identify the var.preset output, or is it even possible.

 

Is there any other way i can have proconrulz to use different !rules depending on the server presets?

My previous post here as you can see above still valid. I still dont know how to get vars.preset on an "on round" trigger

 

Besides that, now im working on a new idea that would work through Proconrulz, involving %ini_section_name%. But my question is, would it be possible to actually add this to the plugin interface as it would be much easier to use this new rule with a UI in the plugin.

 

I was hoping to contact BamBam for this but he is inactive

Plugins don't interact with eachother (they are designed not to) and therefore you can't easily interface directly with UMM either.

 

You may be able to think of a way to achieve a similar outcome while staying within those restrictions. For instance, proconrulz can execute a command to change the game type/experience. If you used a proconrulz command to change the game type, they you would automatically know what the game type is and save it to a variable to refer to at some later time. But can you change the game type without a server restart? I can't remember.

Hey man, thanks for the reply. I am using the "different preset for every map" option in UMM and yea vars.preset can be changed without restarting server. Just some vars.x sets might need a server restart while some take effect immediately.

 

vars.preset was the easiest solution for me to have proconrulz know the change in UMM maplist. If i had a way to get any kind of a variable UMM uses, i could of use that in ProconRulz also.

 

In UMM theres this section to make a custom preset to use on maps or maplist you have where you type all the vars.x changes on each line (basicly use whats in your startup.txt but with different sets). I wonder if i was to add "Set %preset% preset1" in there would work? (i know its a noob thinking). Maybe since that section basicly an exec command list for the server (like startup.txt) i could make 2 independent ini file and exec those ini files by one on each maplist preset loads. Then have ProconRulZ check if a variable in ini1 is active or the variable in ini2 is active and act on using rulz depending on that (im not sure it made sense)
