Hello, I am willing to take requests for people who want an Auto Ranking system command. I just need some information first and also to point out some notes.

Template for request:

Code: Select all

Rank : Level
Rank : Level
Rank : Level
Rank : Level
ect...

Example: survivor : 10
^ That means that when the player reaches level 10, he/she will be ranked to "survivor".

Notes:
# If you have experience in coding, you can use the code I have at the end of the topic.
# If you change the ranks in your server while having Auto Rank, it will not function properly, you must remove it then request another.
# The command will have to be activated after every start up, so if you restart, you must use /autosystem enable again.

Code for people who know what they're doing:

Spoiler:

Code: Select all

using System;

...while (active)
            {
                Thread.Sleep(10000);
                foreach (Player pl in Player.players)
...
            Player.SendMessage(p, "/autorank - Checks player stats every 10 secs to see if the can rankup.");
        }
    }
}


Sidenote: In my opinion, the stats check should be much longer than 10 seconds(no offense to you Leeizazombie). To give an approximation, the time should be between 4 and 12 minutes. If you have a small server(10-15 players), your number should be closer to 4 minutes, and if your server is large(45-50 players), your number should be closer to 12 minutes.

Here are my recommendations on a chart to help people out:

Small
Num. of Players = ?min= ?millisecs
10 = 4= 240000
15 = 5= 300000
20 = 6= 360000
25 = 7= 420000
30 = 8= 480000
35 = 9= 540000
40 = 10= 600000
45 = 11= 660000
50 = 12= 720000
Large

But players will be disappointed to wait for their ranked, as I've already notice with 10 seconds
I shall create a timer instead of using Thread.Sleep, those ms's will be handy to me, thanks. Maybe I can make it an optional setting to alter the refresh rate hmm?

I've added the Timer, it's now much reliable while refreshing every 5 seconds, this will guarantee no extreme usage of CPU.

Hmm...possibly better, because not many other commands use the timer feature yet. But still I don't recommend 5 seconds...make it 20 seconds least(4x per min = a lot of work ).


The timer's ms compared to the round's ms cannot exceed 25%...or bad things can happen!

Ex:
Timer: 5000 ms - (5 sec)
Round time: 20,000 ms - (20 sec)

Anyway, we'll need some people to test out your command.

Lee can you make me a auto-rank system?? Heres my ranks and the levels I want them to be

Lee, you should really make it read from a config file. It would be so much easier than having people request the new command each time. I know how to do this, but there's no fun in it if I just tell you how to do it.
Hint: string.Split();

Here you go:


One problem, I can't tell what the players start level is on your server, you never mentioned.
Like what rank they are as level 1.
I assumed it was "guest", if it isn't please let me know or look in the code and change it!

Enjoy!

These are all the ranks
