This has already been covered multiple times. You don't need to update UMM. If you're not seeing the maps, the BF4.def file on your layer server is not up-to-date.

Hi Falcon.

 

UMM needs an update for BF4 in order to deal with the changes that DICE did in R26. Specifically, some adjustments were made some time after R26 because I was still able to use UMM to set tickets on maps with custom presets even when R26 came out. I believe it is a timing issue. I can also confirm that sending variables with UMM that are now ExecuteOnNextRound variables aren't sent at the right time with UMM (e.g. vars.preset HARDCORE false and vars.vehicleSpawnDelay are both now ExecuteOnNextRound).

 

When UMM tries to set tickets with the custom preset for each map, it doesn't do it at the right time, and the ticket setting fails (same failure happens with Tim's Ticket Time Setter). I have tried every combination available in UMM to set tickets and it fails every time because of timing. Some people have said Adaptive Ticket Count's timing works, as long as you turn off the "Set preset after map loads" option. I use ATC in BF3, but I have not used it in BF4 because UMM took care of the tickets as well as other variables.

 

Papa helped me with an Insane Limits solution for the tickets, and it works without any issue. But I still need to use UMM to set different vehicles spawns on certain maps, for example, and it would be nice to get the timing adjusted to have UMM work properly with sending all variables like it did before R26.

 

Here's Papa's related post about this where he explains the timing issue, together with the limit he created for me to set tickets correctly when running a mixed game mode:

If you want to change this, just change the "50" on line 1721 to whatever you want. It's interesting that you say that ATC works fine, because it waits 55 seconds (line 653).

It's been considered, but was ultimately decided against, as the number of players can fluctuate during a round, which could potentially cause the map list to change multiple times.

I'm asking because on latest version I'm seeing a bug where the maplist won't change on roundend/nextround for some reason, and after a layer reboot it works fine again.

 

It's been happening since last version, and I've no idea why.

You should take some logs and submit a proper bug report, then.

Is there an easy way to edit a maplist instead of using Procon? I'm looking for a text editor. This would make it a lot easier for me to reorganize the maplist and sort it by mode or map name. Updating it in procon takes forever.

 

Never mind. Found it in the configs folder -> IP of server_Port.

 

Not the easiest to edit, but it's something :-)

Has anyone else noticed this behavior?

 

Edit:

 

Looks like it was a memory leak in the machine it was hosted at.

i have reinstalled the game server and procon layer and we are still having the same problem . the server ticket count does not reflect what's in procon .

 

and we also get the map list disappearing after layer reboot .

Yes, that's correct. You should lower the value to see if it corrects the problem.

Are you reloading the plugins or Procon after you make the changes? You probably need to. What does the Procon console say? Are you getting responses saying "executed on next round"?

Any time you change the code, you have to completely quit PRoCon and restart it so it can recompile the code.

This really sucks on Rush maps because the first round keeps whatever ticket count the previous map had and then the next round finally gets what was set. More often than not, this screws over the attacking team on the 2nd round.

 

[21:43:00] vars.gameModeCounter 75

Appreciate any help you can provide falconx. We will continue you to support your development through donations.

I am having success so far with 10 seconds. Need to test more to confirm it works in all cases. Assuming it does, the round must actually be starting while the end of round screen is still being shown and so when the presets are sent 40-50 seconds after round end, they are actually being sent after the next round as actually started. I will get back to you tomorrow evening

Ahh, then I guess don't go below 1. The plugin is not broken, as all it's doing is waiting X seconds, then sending the commands. If the server is continually refusing to accept them, then maybe we need to change map lists and send commands before the end of the current map. This would no longer take into account people who leave after the map ends, but I guess we may not have a choice if DICE is forcing our hand.

  • Our picks

    • Game Server Hosting:

      We're happy to announce that EZRCON will branch out into the game server provider scene. This is a big step for us so please having patience if something doesn't go right in this area. Now, what makes us different compared to other providers? Well, we're going with the idea of having a scaleable server hosting and providing more control in how you set up your server. For example, in Minecraft, you have the ability to control how many CPU cores you wish your server to have access to, how much RAM you want to use, how much disk space you want to use. This type of control can't be offered in a single service package so you're able to configure a custom package the way you want it.

      You can see all the available games here. Currently, we have the following games available.

      Valheim (From $1.50 USD)


      Rust (From $3.20 USD)


      Minecraft (Basic) (From $4.00 USD)


      Call of Duty 4X (From $7.00 USD)


      OpenTTD (From $4.00 USD)


      Squad (From $9.00 USD)


      Insurgency: Sandstorm (From $6.40 USD)


      Changes to US-East:

      Starting in January 2022, we will be moving to a different provider that has better support, better infrastructure, and better connectivity. We've noticed that the connection/routes to this location are not ideal and it's been hard getting support to correct this. Our contract for our two servers ends in March/April respectively. If you currently have servers in this location you will be migrated over to the new provider. We'll have more details when the time comes closer to January. The new location for this change will be based out of Atlanta, GA. If you have any questions/concerns please open a ticket and we'll do our best to answer them.

    • Hello All,

      I wanted to give an update to how EZRCON is doing. As of today we have 56 active customers using the services offered. I'm glad its doing so well and it hasn't been 1 year yet. To those that have services with EZRCON, I hope the service is doing well and if not please let us know so that we can improve it where possible. We've done quite a few changes behind the scenes to improve the performance hopefully. 

      We'll be launching a new location for hosting procon layers in either Los Angeles, USA or Chicago, IL. Still being decided on where the placement should be but these two locations are not set in stone yet. We would like to get feedback on where we should have a new location for hosting the Procon Layers, which you can do by replying to this topic. A poll will be created where people can vote on which location they would like to see.

      We're also looking for some suggestions on what else you would like to see for hosting provider options. So please let us know your thoughts on this matter.

    • Added ability to disable the new API check for player country info


      Updated GeoIP database file


      Removed usage sending stats


      Added EZRCON ad banner



      If you are upgrading then you may need to add these two lines to your existing installation in the file procon.cfg. To enable these options just change False to True.

      procon.private.options.UseGeoIpFileOnly False
      procon.private.options.BlockRssFeedNews False

    • I wanted I let you know that I am starting to build out the foundation for the hosting services that I talked about here. The pricing model I was originally going for wasn't going to be suitable for how I want to build it. So instead I decided to offer each service as it's own product instead of a package deal. In the future, hopefully, I will be able to do this and offer discounts to those that choose it.

      Here is how the pricing is laid out for each service as well as information about each. This is as of 7/12/2020.

      Single MySQL database (up to 30 GB) is $10 USD per month.



      If you go over the 30 GB usage for the database then each additional gigabyte is charged at $0.10 USD each billing cycle. If you're under 30GB you don't need to worry about this.


      Databases are replicated across 3 zones (regions) for redundancy. One (1) on the east coast of the USA, One (1) in Frankfurt, and One (1) in Singapore. Depending on the demand, this would grow to more regions.


      Databases will also be backed up daily and retained for 7 days.




      Procon Layer will be $2 USD per month.


      Each layer will only allow one (1) game server connection. The reason behind this is for performance.


      Each layer will also come with all available plugins installed by default. This is to help facilitate faster deployments and get you up and running quickly.


      Each layer will automatically restart if Procon crashes. 


      Each layer will also automatically restart daily at midnight to make sure it stays in tip-top shape.


      Custom plugins can be installed by submitting a support ticket.




      Battlefield Admin Control Panel (BFACP) will be $5 USD per month


      As I am still working on building version 3 of the software, I will be installing the last version I did. Once I complete version 3 it will automatically be upgraded for you.





      All these services will be managed by me so you don't have to worry about the technical side of things to get up and going.

      If you would like to see how much it would cost for the services, I made a calculator that you can use. It can be found here https://ezrcon.com/calculator.html

    • I have pushed out a new minor release which updates the geodata pull (flags in the playerlisting). This should be way more accurate now. As always, please let me know if any problems show up.
