Set first_check to this Expression

Code:
player.Battlelog404 == true
Set second_check to this Code

Code:
int minutes = 5;
      TimeSpan remain = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5).Subtract(DateTime.Now.Subtract(player.JoinTime));
      
      if ( remain.TotalSeconds > 0 )
          plugin.SendSquadMessage(player.TeamId, player.SquadId, plugin.R("player.Name looks like you don't have a Battlelog account. You have " + plugin.FriendlySpan(remain) + " before being kicked"));
      else

          plugin.KickPlayerWithMessage(player.Name, plugin.R("player.Name, you were kicked for not having a Battelog account"));
      }
      return false;

i use this Limit Copy and paste but after doing it got this error...

[21:18:13 12] [insane Limits] ERROR: 1 error compiling Expression

Micovery could you help me please?

EDIT: also got this error after this setting this limit too..

Set limit to evaluate OnKill, set action to Kick,

Set first_check to this Code:

Code:
double kills = player[kill.Weapon].KillsTotal;
         double headshots = player[kill.Weapon].HeadshotsTotal;
         double headshots_percent = Math.Round((headshots / kills)*100.0, 2);
         
         if (headshots_percent > 90 && kills > 30)
         {
             plugin.ConsoleWrite(plugin.R("%p_n% has " + headshots_percent + " headshots percent with "+ kill.Weapon + " after " + kills + " kills"));
             return true;
         }
         
         return false;
Set these action specific parameters:
Code:
kick_message = %p_n%, you were kicked for suspicious headshots percentage with %w_n%
This feature (per-weapon stats) is not extensively tested. You should adjust the conditions to test, and see if it works as you expect it. If you are going to test it on a populated server, make sure it's on virtual so you can adjust the values until you feel comfortable that it will not kick everyone.

Just want to ask and i think i post it earlier before...

Im using this script but everytime the round is finish the procon layer will be disconnected. and reconnect again.

i tried to disable it and procon layer works smooth.

is it normal for the procon to be reset on this limit? if not can you help me please. getting furstrated already

thanks for your time micovery and PapaCharlie9

It can be used for other limits as well, such as announcing when a victim has been killed more than 10 times by a single player, or to play sub-games like Regicide, where a player from each team is designated "The King" during the round, and whoever kills the king the most, wins.

Create a new limit to evaluate OnKill and set action to None

Set first_check to this Expression:

Code:

( !killer.Name.Equals(victim.Name) )

This insures that Suicides are ignored by the tracker.

Set second_check to this Code:

Code:

/* OnKill: track killers and victims */

// Keep TOP stats

String prefix = "TOP_";
String kKillers = prefix + "killers";  // Killers of a player
String kVictims = prefix + "victims";  // Victims of a player

// Track killer and victim counts
DataDictionaryInterface dk = killer.RoundData;
DataDictionaryInterface dv = victim.RoundData;

int level = 3;

try {
    level = Convert.ToInt32(plugin.getPluginVarValue("debug_level"));
} catch (Exception e) {}

// Setup up killer's data, if not already done
if (!dk.issetObject(kKillers)) { // Killers of killer
    dk.setObject(kKillers, new Dictionary<String, int>());
    if (level >= 5) plugin.ConsoleWrite(kKillers+plugin.R(" created for player.FullName"));
}
if (!dk.issetObject(kVictims)) { // Victims of killer
    dk.setObject(kVictims, new Dictionary<String, int>());
    if (level >= 5) plugin.ConsoleWrite(kVictims+plugin.R(" created for player.FullName"));
}

// Setup up victim's data, if not already done
if (!dv.issetObject(kKillers)) { // Killers of victim
    dv.setObject(kKillers, new Dictionary<String, int>());
    if (level >= 5) plugin.ConsoleWrite(kKillers+plugin.R(" created for player.FullName"));
}

    dv.setObject(kVictims, new Dictionary<String, int>());
    if (level >= 5) plugin.ConsoleWrite(kVictims+plugin.R(" created for player.FullName"));
}

Dictionary<String, int> vOfK = (Dictionary<String, int>)dk.getObject(kVictims); // victims of this killer
Dictionary<String, int> kOfV = (Dictionary<String, int>)dv.getObject(kKillers); // killers of this victim

/* Count killer's victim and victim's killer */

if (!vOfK.ContainsKey(victim.FullName)) {
    vOfK[victim.FullName] = 1;
} else {
    vOfK[victim.FullName] += 1;
}

if (!kOfV.ContainsKey(killer.FullName)) {
    kOfV[killer.FullName] = 1;
} else {
    kOfV[killer.FullName] += 1;
}

/* Debugging and logging */

if (level >= 4) {
    Dictionary<String, int> vKK = (Dictionary<String, int>)dv.getObject(kVictims); // victim killed killer
    int paybacks = 0;

    if (vKK.ContainsKey(killer.FullName)) {
        paybacks = vKK[killer.FullName];
    }

return false;

At debug level 3 or lower, there is no logging output.

At level 4, the log will be updated every time the difference between the number of times killer has killed victim and the number of times victim has killed killer is 10 or more, with a line like this:

[TOP] OnKill: micovery vs [LGN]PapaCharlieNiner kills: 11-1

At level 5, the log will be updated with every new entry that will be tracked as well as with current counts for the killer and victim, like this:

[TOP] OnKill: micovery killer of [LGN]PapaCharlieNiner 11 times.

[TOP] OnKill: micovery victim of [LGN]PapaCharlieNiner 1 times.

By the way, my original description is wrong ... the first message will be sent after 15 minutes. I have changed the code so it matches if the time difference is 0 ... ( the first time), it also sends the message.

as posted in myrcon.net/...insane-limits-examples#entry18648 im just going to wait for the next release for an auto messages to the server, not just per person. i entered the code above but cant add more messages. for some reason it sends all the messages at once. im just looking for a spam bot to the whole server but for it to send the same message up to 5 times at once so it fills up the chatbox. these are general announcement messages to all in the server so not specific to individual users.

As I discovered while experimenting with formatting my clan tag leaderboard based on average scores/kills (coming soon!), the chat window and the admin.say command support embedded newlines and tabs, which can be created in Code or Expressions with strings containing \n and \t control codes. The \n does a new line and \t does a tab to a tab column.

What this means is that you could fill up the entire chat box by sending a single message!

Format the message like this:

"This is the first line that will appear.\nThe second line will appear indented.\nThis is the third line that will appear.\nThis is the fourth line that will appear.\nThis is the fifth line that will appear."

It will display something like this:

Code:

[ADMIN] This is the first line that will appear.
        This second line will appear indented.
        This is the third line that will appear.
        This is the fourth line that will appear.
        This is the fifth line that will appear.

The second and subsequent lines are automatically indented to line up under the beginning of the first line, without needing a tab.

You'll have to adjust the text of each line so that it doesn't wrap, or else it will look like this:

Code:

This is the second line that will appear indented
and if it is too long it will wrap.
        This is the third line that will appear.
        This is the fourth line that will appear and you can't
see the first line because of wrapping.
        This is the fifth line to appear.

If that happens, reword the text so that each line that wraps is shorter.

Note: make sure the "quoted string" does not have @ in front of it. For example, @"abc\n123" will display as abc\n123, but "abc\n123" will be two lines "abc" and "123".

No, I didn't include \t because it is not needed for droopie's usage. It does work though and produces tabular output.

Ah, good point. This will only work if the message string is in a Code or Expression statement. It probably won't work as an Action text (not 100% sure about that, depends on how the text is interpreted in Insane Limiter).

Also, even in a Code or Expression, if the example uses @ before the string, for example, @"xxx\nyyy", you will not get a new line, you will get xxx\nyyy instead. That's what @ means, it means ignore backslash control characters and treat them as literals.

So, you need an example that is Code or Expressions and that doesn't use @"...". How about Rules on Request*? That's easy to test, all you need to do is get on a server you control and that's running Insane Limits and type !rules. Try this version of second_check as an experiment (see the example at the link for the rest of the requirements):

Code:

// Try putting all 4 rules in a single text message string
String Rules = "----- SERVER RULES -----\nNo Cheating, Glitching, Statspadding!\nNo Baserape or spawncamping\nNo mainbase camping";
// Try not to add more than 4 lines because it won't fit in the chat box.

if (limit.Activations(player.Name) <= 2) {
        // Just send one message
        plugin.SendSquadMessage(player.TeamId, player.SquadId, Rules);
}

return false;

I've updated my original point to include these details (Code/Expression and not @"...").

What I would like to do is see if I can determine if any certain maps I have a large number of people leave so as to remove it from our rotation.

I've been thinking of doing something like that for the same reason. Metro seems to kill our server, but I want proof it's not just a coincidence, since it tends to come up in our rotation late at night.

Ideally we'd get a graph that shows when each round starts/stops and for which map and the number of players per unit of time.

Failing that, some sort of calculation of rate of player leaves/joins over the time of the round might work. Or maybe just total leaves/joins/max/min for the round written to the log? Every specified interval of minutes? Something like this in the log every 5 minutes:

[20:05] Leave/Join Stats Metro: -6 net change (+5/-11). Round (max/min) 31/24

[20:10] Leave/Join Stats Metro: -3 net change (+1/-4). Round (max/min) 31/21

[20:15] Leave/Join Stats Metro: -2 net change (+0/-2). Round (max/min) 31/19

Maybe have the CSV data written to a file, for plotting later in Excel? micovery, can a limit write a file?

I think we want both leaves and joins, so we know what maps cause turnover but not necessarily kill the server -- like all the jet jockeys leave when Bazaar comes up but then all the CQ IO grunts come on, with zero net change in max players.

Pretty much I would like to be able to setup custom keywords that reply with specific messages without having to type !keyword or @keyword.. just have the limit detect those words anywhere in normal chat with OnChat command.

Set first_check to this Code:

Code:
double switch_value = 16;

bool_ hardcore = null;
if (server.Data.issetBool("hardcore"))
    hardcore = server.Data.getBool("hardcore");

    plugin.ServerCommand("vars.idleTimeout", "0");
    plugin.ServerCommand("vars.soldierHealth" "100");
        
}
else if ( server.PlayerCount > switch_value && (hardcore == false || hardcore == null))
{
    plugin.SendGlobalMessage("Switching server to hard-core mode");
    plugin.ConsoleWrite("Switching server to hard-core mode");
    
    server.Data.setBool("hardcore", true);

    plugin.ServerCommand("vars.friendlyFire", "true");
    plugin.ServerCommand("vars.killCam", "false");
    plugin.ServerCommand("vars.nameTag", "false");

    plugin.ServerCommand("vars.onlySquadLeaderSpawn", "true");
    plugin.ServerCommand("vars.3dSpotting", "false");
    plugin.ServerCommand("vars.3pCam", "false");
    plugin.ServerCommand("vars.idleTimeout", "1800");
    plugin.ServerCommand("vars.soldierHealth" "60"); 
}
Note that this limit stores a flag "hardcore" in the server object. Depending on the value of the flag, it decides whether or not mode needs to be switched again. This is needed so that it would not keep spamming the switch message, as well well as not sending server commands unnecessarily if the mode is already the same.

This flag is only cleared if the plugin is enabled/disabled. The limit is not in any way aware of what the current mode is. It assumes that whatever mode it set last time ... is the one currently active. Because of this, if you manually change the mode, the limit will not know of the mode change.

Figured out why it's not returning to soft core.

These errors you are getting are from directly copy+paste from the example?

Run this command:

Code:

!dump limit 8

Then open the file "LimitEvaluator8.cs" which is created in ProCon's directory. You will be able to see exactly which lines the errors are referring to.

Hello, i need help...

Code:

if(limit.Activations() == 1)
{
    if([b]server.NextMapFileName.Equals("MP_Subway")[/b])
    {
        plugin.ServerCommand("vars.gameModeCounter", "286");

        plugin.ConsoleWrite("Siguiente mapa"+server.NextGamemode+". Tickets configurados");
    }
}
return false;

By just looking at the code, I can see two problems. (I have not tried compiling it to see if it works)

The string comparisons are incorrect ... this is how you do some simple string comparisons:

Code:

if (server.NextMapFileName.Equals("MP_Subway"))

Code:

if ( Regex.Match(server.NextMapFileName, @"MP_Subway", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase).Success )

Code:

    if ( server.NextMapFileName == "MP_Subway" )

Missing curly brace at the end

In the mean time, I'll work on a simple example that just keeps track of the current number of players and calculates the net change OnInterval. Also min and max for round.

Few questions... I would like to have a chat detection rule similar to this one.. but setup keywords to display specific messages.

Like for example if some types "hacker" in chat then a message would instantly reply "If you feel there is a hacker type @votekick Hackersname in chat" .. or if they type "is there an admin" reply "Visit our forums at www.YourHostForums.com" or "Contact our admins at [email protected]"

Pretty much I would like to be able to setup custom keywords that reply with specific messages without having to type !keyword or @keyword.. just have the limit detect those words anywhere in normal chat with OnChat command.

That's easy, but be careful. This could end up being abused by a player wanting to spam the chat box to be annoying. Or, it might just annoy a player who is trying to type about "this hacker guy I saw yesterday" to a buddy in chat.

This is a variation on the Bad Words punisher. You can change the list of patterns to match and the message to send by changing or adding more Add() lines to the "phrase book":

Set limit to evaluate OnAnyChat, and action to None,

Set first_check to this Code:

Code:

Dictionary<String, String> book = new Dictionary<String, String>();

// The key is a Regex pattern to search for in chat, the value is the message to send

book.Add(@"hack", "player.Name, if you feel there is a hacker type @votekick Hackersname in chat.");
book.Add(@"admin", "player.Name, you can email our admins at [email protected]");
	
foreach(KeyValuePair<String,String> phrase in book) {
    if (Regex.Match(player.LastChat, phrase.Key, RegexOptions.IgnoreCase).Success) {
        plugin.SendSquadMessage(player.TeamId, player.SquadId, plugin.R(phrase.Value));
    }
}

return false;

Since the message (phrase.Value) is run through plugin.R, you can use replacements to personalize the message. To minimize annoyance risk, the message is only sent to the player's squad.

This compiles okay, but I haven't tested it. Note that it is very aggressive at matching as written, so the first pattern will match "hack" and "hacker", but it will also match "shack" and "pathacknowledge", etc.

AGAIN, CAUTION! THIS CAN BE EASILY ABUSED AND PISS OFF YOUR PLAYERS!

This is not possible at the moment. The server does not report the vehicle kills as it used to do in BFBC2. All vehicles kills are simply reported as "Death", so there is no way to tell if weapon was a vehicle or not.

Will the /n and /t work in the messages for this?

It's a back-slash "\" not a forward-slash "/" ... it should work on custom code ... like this:

This feature (per-weapon stats) is not extensively tested. You should adjust the conditions to test, and see if it works as you expect it. If you are going to test it on a populated server, make sure it's on virtual so you can adjust the values until you feel comfortable that it will not kick everyone.

Just want to ask and i think i post it earlier before...

Im using this script but everytime the round is finish the procon layer will be disconnected. and reconnect again.

i tried to disable it and procon layer works smooth.

is it normal for the procon to be reset on this limit? if not can you help me please. getting furstrated already

thanks for your time micovery and PapaCharlie9

EDIT i need to repost this its not being answer. sorry.

I have not tested it ... but it seems that if you are admin, and joining, you won't see the announcement because you'd be in the loading screen when the announcement is sent, which is ok.
