Was wondering if you guys ever thought of adding a pub bot to post player stats at the end of every fg. It would be interesting to know how people performed during each game, and would allow a person to compare their performance to others...

 

Thoughts?

I'm absolutely certain it could be done without a bot.

 

We don't use bots (generally,) they are less powerful than server modules and a lot more high-maintenance. So when you make a suggestion you can just word it like "we should have stats spammed at the end of every fg..."

 

Oh, and we have a stats module and everything but I don't think there's much use for using it in public when the start of a real flag game is very hard to determine. More likely it'd be something like DSB(?) where we'd give the stats for the last 15-30 minutes.

Yeah I've seen the stats for DSB(is that what the basing event is??) at the end of the flag game, and that is pretty awesome. You are right that it is hard to determine the start of a fg, because they can sometimes last FOREVER. I'd say spamming stats for the last 15 minutes would be too short; 30 is what I'm thinking. And if it canbe done without a bot, so much the better.

it's a type of server.

 

 

the two types of servers are asss (as3) (a small subspace server) and subgame. most zones run off of subgame, but hyperspace runs off of asss. it doesn't need bots because the functions normally performed by them are run by the server in the form of modules. a module could be (probably already is) written to do what you are suggesting a bot does.

DID I HEAR SOMEONE SAY RIDICULE?

 

asss = open source software that we can actually modify and put most of the functionality into (instead of with bots). HZ, HS, PB, and some scrub zones run this currently.

 

subgame = crusty old assembly hacked crap whose main selling point is that it is i guess stable enough. most of the zones still run this because they are cowards
