DoD Max Kills / Deaths

[Zor]

Ok this plugin helps to stop the 255 Kill / Death crash on servers. Basically because of the limits of old HL and Computers if a player maxes out on kills or deaths over 255 the server will sometimes crash out. This is bad for a 24/7 server, hence the reason I created this plugin.

// v0.1 - Originaly done by FireStorm
// v0.2 - Changed to dod_maxkds
// v0.3 - Fixed error with checking victims kills, made it look at victims deaths
// - Added code to reset score instead of kicking
// v0.4 - Added check to make sure victim and killer are connected before checking
// their stats
//
// v0.3 and v0.4 is fixed thanks to diamond-optic, Cheers!



UPDATED TO RESET BOTS!!!

So If I set dod_maxkds 999

that's mean that kills/deaths reach over 999 then the server will crash ?

[Firestorm]

The server will crash if someone maxes out on 255 kills or 255 deaths. So set it to like 200 to be sure that the server dont crash.

Hi, nice plugin, sadly I get compile errors in amxx 1.75a.

Hey i was wondering if this problem even exists anymore?

Cuz tonight i saw a guy on my caen server having 310 kills and nothing happend, no reboot/crash.. He wasnt reset by maptime, . . . just nothing :)....

[diamond-optic]

hmm really?

ive actually had an updated version of this for like a year i think hahah just never got around to asking zor for permission to update it...

and ive never heard anything about this being fixed

*edit*

i checked it out on a local win32 server... and at 1st i was able to get up to about 570ish kills before it crashed.. then i started the server again and tried it 2 more times and both times it crashed around 260ish

cant understand why the 1st time i was able to get up so high

[Dr.G]

Yep nothing happend... my win32 server can take alot too, see the SS below and i stopped it there it didnt crash...

This was bots tho... But that couldnt matter could it?

[Cottrell]

yeah I was in a server with 400 kills the other day, I the problem has been fixed, unless there is a plugin which allows people to go over the limit.

[plogan64]

I run several 24/7 servers and really need this plugin.

I set dod_maxkds 200 before I compiled it but it didn't work as when a player got to 260 server went down.

Any idea what I may have done wrong or if the plugin is still working? I check in HLSW by typing amxx list and saw the plugin was running.

I'm using amxx version 1.8.1.3722

Any help would be appreciated.

[diamond-optic]

hmm it should work.. double check the value of the dod_maxkds cvar in rcon while the server is running, as changing the cvar value in the plugin i believe doesnt take effect unless you do a full reboot of the server..

but ive got an update to this anyway that ill try and post soon

[Merrill]

Ok I think it didn't work because I didn't reboot server. I did type dod_maxkds in console and it came back as "dod_maxkds" is "200"

One more question, does it work on bots?

Oh ya I use multiple computers and also use the name plogan64.

Thanks Diamond for your help.

[diamond-optic]

the current version on here does not reset the score of bots.. but my soon to be posted version does :)

[meathead]

Recently put syns instant respawn on our server, and the kills are high enough now, I'm having this problem now. Gonna see it this helps.
Has your update been released DO?

[diamond-optic]

Has your update been released DO?


lol no.. im lazy

[Tank]

Besides the resetting of the bots score this does work like a charm. Been using it quite some time now and it's a crash-saver.

[Zor]

I updated the plugin to reset the bots scores.

Cheers!

[meathead]

Thanks for the update Zor :)
