GhoulofGSG9 · September 2013

This is a Package of Plugins all around functions about the statspage Ns2stats.com

The Package requires Shine to run.

It core plugin is to enable ns2stats.com logging for your server.

Next to this the Plugin Package adds the following plugins to shine:
- NS2Stats - Core function Enables looging for ns2stats.com
- Elo Team Restriction - Allows you to set differen restrictions for your server based on ns2stats playerdatas.
- Killstreak - Counts Killstreaks of single players and prints them out to chat (optinal also it can play Killstreak sounds)
- NS2Stats Badges - Uses Ns2Stats Playerdatas to assign differen kinds of flags to them automatically (e.g. flags)
- No Rookies - Blocks rookies from joining teams or/and CC by using Hive Playerdatas
- Roundlimiter - Allow you to set a max roundtimelimit at which the time with the higher total score wins.

FQA for old NS2Stats users:

Q: Why you use Shine now?
A: Because it allows us to write NS2Stats in a way that it runs much faster and never will crash your server moreover now ns2stats does not modify any gamefile and is alot smaller.

Q: Were are all the other NS2Stats functions gone?
A: Most are already there in form of other Shine Plugins. If you want Bagdes in the Scoreboard use Huzes mod.

Q: But i dont like Shine!
A: No problem turn off all Shine functions except NS2Stats in the baseconfig.json

Q: Help all Commands are not working
A: Go here: https://github.com/BrightPaul/Shine/wiki/NS2Stats#commands

Q: Is the voterandom plugin compatible with this version
A: Yes, the voterandom plugin of Shine has been updated to be fully compatible with this version of NS2Stats

Lots of feature will be added to the website from now on.

Some Infos:

All log errors will be automatocally reported to us, so only report bugs with no error in the log

Nice work!

After ns2stats shine is out of beta we will make it as main ns2stats mod. We are not planning to include original ns2stats extra features like afk kick, votemap and unstuck, since those are found in other mods or included with shine. We do not know if we are going to include killstreaks, depends if there is already other mod available for that. We are going to use Shine tournament mode for private(competitive) games so NS2stats won't include its own tournament mode anymore, which needed updating anyway.

Anyway mod as shine plugin makes using ns2stats lot easier for server admins, since you can just enable it once and forget it, instead of removing it every patch and adding again after its been updated.

What about adding more functionality the in-game scoreboard? When it comes to analyzing how helpful a player is to the team, you need to look at their player/structure damage and their accuracy. From what I am told, NS2Stats already tracks those things so I guess my request is that it's put on the in-game scoreboard. If you can't manage to make more columns and have it look appealing, I made a quick mockup of a more complex route you could go.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/vxwb20lapymjnbu/ns2scoreboardidea.png

The idea is that you add onto the current 'click on the scoreboard to mute a person' functionality and give each person their own collapsible panel with stats. I know this doesn't look anything like the normal scoreboard, I spent five minutes creating it. The end product should be identical to what we have now, except that if you click on a person, a panel falls down with their stats.

edit: i didn't read the thread, i've had this idea for a while and decided to post it. seems like it would fit in perfectly with ns2stats.

Something like that will be added, and prob pretty soon. Thou we prob wont modify scoreboard but we'll add another window for extra stats, which opens from scoreboard or shine menu. Thanks.

GhoulofGSG9 · September 2013

@turtsmcgurt its already there: press m,n or c >NS2Stats > serverstats. There is a live stat, which is updated every 1 min (we'll work on optimizing more things to update is more often). In fact i won't touch the Ingame Scoreboard as we would have to override gamefiles for that.

GhoulofGSG9 · September 2013

Next patch will be published in about 2 hours:

Fixes :

Fixed some UI stuff

New Features:

Improved Live Stats

Sounds like it takes too much effort to get to, you'd have respawned by then. I guess it's a good effort, though.

you also can use !showlivestats in the chat or bind <key> sh_showlivestats to bind the command to a key your choice. The problem with keybinding is that mostly the hole keyboard is used by default. And really 2 clicks are too much, okay

How have you implemented the kill streaks? I originally implemented them using the cout stuff by Sint. I have noticed though there are now world messages in the code, that could probably be used instead. Are you using either of those methods, or do you have a different way of doing it?

Once I can confirm my mod working, I want to start adding the killstreaks feature again.

My Code is completely on github, the only thing you have to know is that shine calls all plugin function with the given hookname if the hooked function is called. So basically OnEntityKilled() is called after Gamerules:OnEntityKilled() is called. I'm using the input of that function to determ if the attacker and target are player, but that should be clear looking at the plugins code

. Taking a look on how Shine.Hook is working maybe also helps: https://github.com/Person8880/Shine/blob/master/lua/shine/core/shared/hook.lua . Basically this sytem is also described in the shine wiki

So if you also have a function Gamerules:OnEntityKilled() my plugin should work fine with your mod.

If you have any more questions you are free to add me on steam. Please notice that Person8880 can answer questions about shine more detailed than me.

Soul_Rider · October 2013

I do have that function. It would be good actually if Shine supported Proving Grounds, as it means I could save a lot of resources developing things like admin and kill streaks, etc, and leave that up to Shine to worry about.

If you provide your code somewhere im sure person8880 will take a look. E.G. Shine and [Shine] NS2Stats are fully compatible to Combat Mode. I could take a first look at your alpha versions and tell you if any core functions for shine are missing if you would like that.

Soul_Rider · October 2013

That would be great. Catch me up on steam, my details are in the Proving Grounds thread.

GhoulofGSG9 · November 2013

Ok after a long time another update:

Added:

Plugin "ns2statsbadges" :

Requires:
Either Player Badge (http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=99887628)
and Flag Pack(http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=180395168)
or my Mix-Up Badge Mod ( http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=191973881)

ns2statsbadges automatically gives players on your server their home land flag as bagde. Doesn't need NS2Stats to run!

Also i fixed some little bugs.
