Hello,

First of all , thanks for the plugin.

The system of management of the queue seems to work fine.
But as i could see yesterday evening, the function "force to spec & add to wait" is not functionning.

we were 15 on the server (limited at 12 players)but nobody was requeued,anyway when someone went out of the server it was releasing someone from the queue.

here is my config code :

Code: Select all

// Start config paramaters *Edit 
  $spec_cfg['WaitMax'] = 8;               // Number of slots available in waiting line
  $spec_cfg['Worst'] = 2;                 // Number of players to Kick each race end , zero disable
  $spec_cfg['Kick'] = 2;                  // Kick Method 0=Kick 1=Force to Spec 2=Force to Spec & add to wait
  $spec_cfg['Admin'] = true;              // Kick admins (only if kick is used) 
// End config paramaters 

Maybe you have an idea of the issue?

What was happening exactly ?
- players were forced to spec but not added to the queue automatically
or
- no players where worst kicked when it was set to "force to spec & add to wait"
or
- other ?

Let me know and i will try and fix, I already have a newer version almost ready.

Rastalex, I havent been able to duplicated your problem, yet. I will look into it further. In the mean time test the latest anyway.

Version 0.50 released

It would appear you forgot to include the text file in the new .zip.

Hi,

It seems to work fine with the new release.
Dunno if i made a mistake with the previous one or if it was the plugin itself!

Anyway it works like a charm now so thanks a lot for your work

Thanks for your job

Hi,

when a server is full and queue on,
is it possible when a player is joinin the server to automatically add it to the queue ?
No need to click on "join the queue".

Thanks

It would be possible, but i think its a bad idea. For those that are genuine spectators they would have no choice.

New Version 0.60
This is now complete as far as I consider for essential featurres and functions

[sbone]

Works fine !
Thanks for this great job.

Just change "postion" to "position"

Code: Select all

<label posn="2.7 -0.7 1" sizen="26 4" halign="center" valign="center" scale="1.0 1.0" text="$eeeCurrently waiting postion $fff$s'.$posi.'" action="2702702"/>

to

Code: Select all

<label posn="2.7 -0.7 1" sizen="26 4" halign="center" valign="center" scale="1.0 1.0" text="$eeeCurrently waiting position $fff$s'.$posi.'" action="2702702"/>

[Mikey]

Oops
Fixed, Thanks for letting me know

[sbone]

One precision :
if you use SpecJam plugin you must remove from plugins.xml :

Code: Select all

<plugin>mistral.idlekick.php</plugin>

To include in documentation txt file
