I have read through loads of posts here but i cant see what im looking for. Sorry if this is the wrong plugin.

 

I was in a server yesterday and when i went to put down my mortar it was blocked, i could not put it down anywhere. How do i do this ?

 

From what im reading it's not possible ?

Looks like it might be a lost cause

Just for a test, we could see if the var works as you want if you set it *before* the map loads. What about if you:

 

(1) Set vehicleSpawnDelay to 100000

(2) Load Bazaar

(3) Destroy the jeep

(4) see what happens to the jeeps as before - this bit should work I think although I think you should only get ONE

(5) Set vehicleSpawnDelay to 100 (or smaller, to test)

(6) Load Damavand Peak

(7) test the vehicles work normally there.

 

If that works then we just have to design rulz to set the spawn delay before the next map loads.

 

If it does NOT work then we could look at doing the same thing with vars.vehicleSpawnAllowed false|true - did you try that already? I KNOW that var is only read at map load time, so you would definitely need to set it one-map-before.

Loaded Bazarr jeep spawned back twice, after that it didn't spawn back.

 

Loaded Peak destroyed vehicle never respawned delay was set to 30 for quick respawn.

Can you create a rule which auto kill you and eventually kicks you if you keep tk`ing a pilot so you can have the helicopter/plane if he gets there before you.

 

Basiclly im happy with the !punish option insane punisher gives you but I want auto TK if a player TK a person to use the helo/plane because im fed up with scum doing it...

At present, this is not possible with any BF3 plugin. Plugins have no way of knowing where in a map a player is nor do they know if a player is in a vehicle or not. Please read the first post.

Hey Repoman at least you've done good research of how the vehicleSpawnDelay actually works - it seems to behave as a fixed period from one vehicle spawn to the next regardless of map loads. And if you change the value, that will be a parameter of the NEXT vehicle to spawn - that's why it takes 2 vehicles for the effect to be seen.

 

Is there any possibility of using the variable vars.vehicleSpawnAllowed true|false instead? (I'm fairly sure that is required before a map load to affect the map).

Also is there any chance to add waiting time for loading all players before round starts ?

With the latest version, I read yes.

 

Example:

 

On Kill;Weapon Melee;Yell 10 %p% took %v%'s dog tags!

 

The number after the Yell command is the length of time that the yell will be displayed for that one rule. Remember to pay attention to the spaces. I believe that you have to have a space after yell before the number and after the number.

 

Rule Syntax:

 

;;yell

 

Otherwise, I have heard that you can globally change PRoConRulz's default Yell duration for all PRoConRulz rules in the PRoConRulz plugin settings but I don't know for sure since I have not updated yet to the latest version.

i am thinking about something automatic, but that will do

 

how about setting the player limit of the server, how would i change that?

how do you adjust the time with playeryell?

Those 'W's aren't coming from ProconRulz - some other plugin presumably

if you're going to use ProconRulz you need to at least pretend to look at the instructions once before asking basic questions like this. The link is in my sig.

it wont need to know where the person is (unless your saying it doesnt know the person is in the vehicle), actually would be better for anywhere on the map

 

im no good at coding but wouldnt it be something like this:

 

"if teamkill is in VehicleAir then kill"

 

On TeamKill VehicleAir;Say %p% teamkilled %v%;Kill 100;

On Teamkill;%p% Teamkill %v% VehicleAir;Say %p% teamkilled %v%;kill 100

 

something like this?

 

could we not put VehicleAir in there somewhere?

Vehicle on Bazarr only respawned once before not respawning anymore during the map. When it switched to Border all vehicles spawned but the tanks and Mobile AA and it appeared that the respawn worked because the helos and jeeps came back at least 3 times before i had to remove the rule and restart the map to fix it.

No, it won't work as he typed it. He was giving you a general structure. Each Kill and Kick rule would have to be a separate rule and use different playercounts.

 

Example:

On Kill;MapMode SquadDeathMatch0;Weapon Death;PlayerCount 2;Kick don't use vehicles or mortar in squad deathmatch

On Kill;MapMode SquadDeathMatch0;Weapon Death;PlayerCount 1;Say %p% killed for using vehicle or mortar;Kill

On Kill;MapMode SquadDeathMatch0;Weapon Death;PlayerYell No vehicle or mortar kills in Squad Deathmatch!

 

Since Weapon Death is also mortar, you have to warn against it too. There is no "Vehicle" weapon key in BF3, so you have to use "Weapon Death".

There is no way of knowing anything about the player's position. You can't know where in the map the player is, nor can you know if the player is in a vehicle.

 

All Rcon (the event transmission system from the game server) tells PRoCon are simple things like this:

Player Joined, Player Spawned on X team, Player Killed with Y weapon (Y weapon isn't even always correct), Round started, Round Ended

 

That's about it.

 

You have to use your imagination to make more complex functions work off of this basic information. But, you will never find a way to punish killing a helicopter pilot.

Lol I forgot to paste the rule.
