So you might want to combine the rulz:

# RPG limit on Operation Metro

On Kill;Map Subway;Damage ProjectileExplosive;PlayerCount 5;TempBan 3600 %p% %w% - 1 hour temp ban ProjectileExplosive

On Kill;Map Subway;Damage ProjectileExplosive;PlayerCount 4;Kick %p% - using rockets on Metro

On Kill;Map Subway;Damage ProjectileExplosive;PlayerFirst;Say %p% do NOT use rockets on Metro;Kill 100

On Kill;Map Subway;Damage ProjectileExplosive;Kill 100

The 'hash' character means ProconRulz ignores the rest of that line, so yes, you can disable rulz with it if you want.

 

@ty-ger - no problem - just having a laugh.

heads-up: the next release of ProconRulz (v35) will allow multiple item keys (i.e. Kit/Weapon/Damage/Specialization) to be used in a single condition separated with commas and no spaces. (Reminder: BF3 currently only supports Weapon/Damage on Kills, nothing on Spawn) The condition succeeds if ANY of the items is correct. E.g. On Kill;Weapon RPG-7,SMAW;... will succeed if the kill was with an RPG-7 or a SMAW. Technically this doesn't add a capability that wasn't possible before (except in a minor way to do with 'counts'), in other words

On Kill;Weapon RPG-7,SMAW;Log player killed with RPG-7 or SMAW

is similar to

On Kill;Weapon RPG-7;Log player killed with RPG-7 or SMAW

On Kill;Weapon SMAW;Log player killed with RPG-7 or SMAW

The multi-item format accepts all existing rulz as a subset of the new extended format.

This is just a heads-up - v35 is running now on our clan server with a variety of test rulz with Log actions, and it will be released when/if that shows no issues. Really we're waiting for DICE to provide the On Spawn data to make any real move forward.

It more often than not doesn't work this way, why is that? This is a concern among many on my server and frankly yours truly too.

My understanding is that it just counts how many times the player kills with that weapon in a single round. It does not take into consideration respawning, changing weapons, etc. It just adds up the total number of kills with that weapon for the round.

 

Maybe you are asking if such functionality COULD be integrated by the plugin developer.

There's obviously more kicked but I didn't want a wall of death.

Do you suppose it could be an EA backend or network issue?

I'd like to setup a no mortars/MAV rule on my Metro only server, I'd like to just inform the player on the first kill, kill the player if they choose to ignore the first warning, and on the 10th MAv/Mortar kill I'd like to kick them.

 

Is this possible, and if so could you post the rules required

 

Many thanks

I might be wrong, but I am pretty sure the PlayerSay commands are working currently. Please tell me if I am wrong.

Can't do that yet, so yes its because no kit specialization info is available.

 

Also, does kick message work for anyone else? (BF3)

 

Kick work, but not Kick msg

All a bit of a hack because BF3 doesn't support PlayerSay (yet). Not much you can do. I'm just not using PlayerSay in rulz until BF3 actually supports it.

 

Disturb11d your rulz look fine to me - BF3 has half-a-dozen ways it can spaz and empty a server, gradually getting fixed in various BF3 releases from DICE, mostly to do with the server having a network glitch seeing the EA servers or PBbans. I'm quite confident ProconRulz isn't doing anything that should crash the server with your rulz, because we're up to version 34 of ProconRulz and that aspect of the code has never been an issue in the past and hasn't changed with BF3. You'd think there's a chance that ProconRulz could trigger some bug in BF3, in which case I would write code to work around it, but so far I'm pretty sure this isn't the case either.

 

bhaker just trawl through this thread and you should find what you want. Start with the 1st post.

 

BF3 doesn't seem to do anything with the message given in a Kick command - BFBC2 would display the message is a box to piss of the kicked player crashing out of the game. At a guess this is due to the BFBC2 code morphing into BattleLog. The rcon protocol still includes the message tho so maybe one day BF3 will support it.

I added

Code:

procon.protected.weapons.add None "Roadkill" Primary None

to BF3.def and that removed the error message, but as it should only be temp this is the only way I guess.

Thanks but, unfortunately I can't edit the BF3.def file because it's hosted/locked down

ProconRulz gives a warning because you could have mis-typed a weapon key, or the weapon key could be missing from BF3.def because it's out-of-date. It would be an issue for rifles, handguns, rockets, nades etc if you have a condition "Damage X" (e.g. Explosive) and that weapon should be included, but this never happens for Death or Roadkill.

 

Stuckmoto is your hosted procon now 1.1.2.0 ? I'm wondering if your host updates the code, BF3.def or both ?

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

 

a patch from you to follow the EA/DICE patch

AFAIK there's nothing in the patch for ProconRulz users, although I'll be ecstatic if I'm wrong. In general, yes, I'll update ProconRulz to take advantage of any new BF3 features. The On Spawn and Kit/Spec code is already in ProconRulz and given that all the other rcon stuff from BF3 is a straight lift from BFBC2 I'm expecting that to work as soon as/if BF3 provides that data. It's possible Procon (and BF3.def) will require an update at that point though.
