terminator - nope - the only event BF3 is giving us suitable for 'limits' is killing of a player.

A kill by mav is reported as weapon "roadkill"? That's a new piece of info - thanks.

yes - PT

When I append 'say xxx' to end, it will not work and I'll get the following error: NullReferenceExpection and whole plugin stops working. Please see attachment.

I wouldn't place the "say" on the end. Rather before your action

i.e. On Kill;Map Subway;Damage ProjectileExplosive;Say NO EXPLOSIVES;Kick %p%

Hey GameFrame - does having that rule *always* give the 'recoverable exception' message from ProconRulz ?

 

The plugin gives that message (and recovers) when the game server gives some information that was truly unexpected. For example it is fairly common for the game server to say one player killed another with weapon "null", or one player killed player "null" with a weapon, i.e. basically events with bad data coming from the game server - but ProconRulz already has code programming around everything I've seen before and treats those as normal.

 

If you have any clue as to what event came from the server when that message was produced by ProconRulz that would help but for this you'd need event logging in the Procon *console*.

 

But I've never seen a situation where ProconRulz produced a "recoverable exception" message and didn't then continue normally - what happened when the plugin "stopped working"? Did Procon continue ok? Did you have Procon 'log' messages in the chat console and Procon carried on ok but those messages stopped? I.e. what told you the plugin "stopped working" ?

 

Any log info you've got, or a way to reproduce the error, will be helpful. Thanks for the plugin console screenshot.

**Edit ** genius, well spotted. 10 points. The 'bug' is in the write statement for the message to the chat log, and has presumably been like that for months. When a TempBan action is issued, ProconRulz automatically writes a log entry to the chat log "ProconRulz: Player {0} temp banned for {1} seconds" and I'm embedding playername and bantime the wrong way round in the log message. Apologies. The TempBan itself is unaffected, just the way I format the log message, and I've now corrected that in the next version v35. Thanks.

Bambam

Sounds good bud, hey in the meantime here's my nade rule below I've been using:

 

# METRO NADE SPAM RULZ (kill @ 5, Kick @ 7)

On Kill;Map Subway;Damage Explosive;Count 6;Kick %p% Excessive use of nades on Metro

On Kill;Map Subway;Damage Explosive;Count 4;Kill 100

 

What I'd like to have is to perhaps kill after the first 5 or 6 nades, then kick (or kill whatever) after every 5 or 6 more so I think I'd have a whole bunch of counts, say up to whatever 50, 100 whatever is necessary. My feeling that my rule above is too restrictive, though controlling spamming is of primary concern.

 

count 5;kick

count 10;kick etc

.

If you are using a hosted Procon layer server, then that server is where the Plugins/BF3/ProconRulz.cs must be.

 

Install the plugin first, then worry about the actual rulz.

not possible. You did not read 1st post in thread. Instead limit players to maximum 5 sniper kills per player:

On Kill;Damage SniperRifle;PlayerCount 5;Log %p% kill #%c% with sniper rifle = SLAY;Say %p% sniper limit;Kill 100

Please do not ask again until you have read the 1st post in this thread.

 

illuminator: correct, you cannot stop ONLY tank kills. It is possible to stop ALL VEHICLE kills by using "Weapon Death", because tanks, helis, boats (and Mortars) all kill with weapon Death. So it is possible to have a "no vehicle kills under 4 players per team" with

On Kill;Weapon Death;Teamsize 3;Say %p% no vehicle kills until 4 players per side;Kill

Note that this will include mortars but hey, nothings perfect.

 

FoxRiverMan

for for knife-only just keep those rulz, but at the TOP add

On Kill;Not Damage Melee;PlayerCount 3;Log %p% non-melee kill #%c% - KICKED;Kick kicked for non-knife kills

On Kill;Not Damage Melee;Say %p% non-melee kill #%c% (will be kicked after 3);Kill 100

For any noobie reading this, the whole issue around the kills BF3 reports as 'Death' is summarized in the first post of this thread. Basically it's mostly every kill by any type of vehicle/aircraft weapon, plus mortars.

If i use your rule set, i get this error message bambam:

Do you know the reason... ?

regarding the "Weapon Death not found in Procon" message:

Those rulz will work unaffected. ProconRulz is warning that *Procon* has no definition for that weapon in its Configs/BF3.def file. The warning is more helpful when a 'normal' weapon code has a typo, e.g. you use "Weapon Saiga20k", when the warning will be unexpected to you and hint you've put in a wrong weapon code (the correct code is Siaga20k). A definition in BF3.def is needed for a valid 'damage type' for the weapon (i.e. BF3.def is where SMAW is given damage type ProjectileExplosive, allowing you to use conditions such as "Damage ProjectileExplosive"). As you never care that 'Death' cannot be used in a Damage condition, the warning is irrelevant.

 

You can remove the warning by adding a "Death" entry to your BF3.def - copy any other weapon entry but use "None "Death" Primary None".

 

We might put a default entry for 'Death' in the next Procon update just to reduce the confusion, although it's not really a weapon...

On TeamKill;PlayerCount 4;PlayerSay %p% Autokill Warning: 4 of 5!

Your order is out of place.

 

For instance, it will never get to PlayerCount 4 since PlayerCount 3 comes first. It will just repeat #3 twice before reaching #5. It executes the first one in the series which is satisfied and then quits executing the rest. #3 satisfies the statement since it is asking if there are 3 OR MORE and thus it will do #3 twice.

 

Also, I think your command order for #5 is wrong.

 

I would do something like this:

On TeamKill;PlayerCount 5;Say %p% auto-killed for too many team kills!;Log %p% TKed %v%;Kill 500

On TeamKill;Say %p%, auto-kill warning: %c% of 5

 

PlayerSay doesn't work as far as I understand. I think that functionality was broken by DICE in server patch R8. I think it is still broken.

The no rockets config has been stated over and over.

 

No projectile explosives:

On Kill;Damage ProjectileExplosive;PlayerCount 2;Say %p%, was killed for using projectile explosives.;Log %p% killed %v% with %w%.;Kill 500

On Kill;Damage ProjectileExplosive;Say %p% warning! No projectile explosives.;Log %p% killed %v% with %w%.

 

Tac Lights and IRNV don't have weapon keys and thus can not be controlled.
