Improvements for the dedicated server

[blanknot]

It means I'm part of the staff

Have you always been, or is this new?

Congratulations Alloc on being part of the staff! I know you deserved it for ages!

I wanted to ask you, do you know whether your 7dtd-server-fixes will/should work mostly for A10 ? We added quite a bit of nice improvements in it but I am now waiting for A10 to avoid having to recode everything in case A10 breaks most/all of it.

The anticheat measures we've added work very well and this is all thanks to your work and dedication.

I have added a list of duplication bugs and other issues to madmole yesterday as per his instructions and I hope it will be useful in eradicating the bugs.

I also wanted to point out that I don't know if it's because of the 7dtd-server-fixes.dll's implementation of the inventory update on client disconnection or the game itself, the inventory doesn't get updated on disconnect or game exit which can make people lose or gain items on their inventory (ALT+F4 causes this).

Thanks!

Neo

Was wondering. Would it be possible for you to add a mute option in the mod? Sometimes people rage or harass other players in the chat. And I feel that a mute would be better then kicking/banning. Would be great to set a timer. Like mute someones steam ID for 2 hours or 15 minutes...

I think I can add such an option to my anti-cheat mod.

The client sends the inventory to the server every 30th second (and the server writes it to the save file directly). The only way to solve this problem is synchronizing the inventory between client and server, which a server-only mod cannot do.

Its kind of a funny term but you have been officially branded a "Pimp", Hide your women guys....

hey OP, i just spent the last few hours making a patcher and hooking a few methods (limited by the obfuscation). got a chat listener and a few other things down and felt good. i come into this forum and found this thread, checked out your project - patcher and deobber and literally dropped my project. Great job you have made amazing groundwork. the patcher looks beautiful compared to mine.

maybe later on ill fork it and contribute to hooks.

Alloc, is it possible to randomize the webserver port, or at least let us change it? I'm seeing more people guessing it (which is not very hard to do). Adding the password auth makes it time out every few minutes.

You can Edit your Port for the Webpanel and than you get a other Port for the Livemap.

Oh good, I didn't know that. That's better than nothing

Yup, as Markezzz said you can change the port implicitly by the control panel port. In the future there will be an option just for this one. Also there will be the new authentication which shouldn't give you any trouble anyway

Sounds Great Alloc.

Alloc for Server President! Give us the sugar for our servers. ;o) *jokeling*

 

[Neowarex]

Alloc did and does unbelievably great work. I can't wait to see what he will be able to do now that he is part of the staff.

I am waiting for A10 to see the changes and see if they break the files or not before I continue adding new functions.

Thanks again,

Neo

Hey Alloc Really important question. I opened a new server with Ping Perfect. they installed the alloc files mod on your site. It works... but every 2-3 hours it glitches my server. and players can no longer re enter the server. they get stuck at the waiting screen. do you have any idea why this is happening and how to fix it? ( i never had this problem with my blackbox server )

 

[Alloc]

Obvious question: Log?

 

[Novahaze]

How do i aquire the logs? In which folder would it be on Tcadmin?

 

[Alloc]

How do i aquire the logs? In which folder would it be on Tcadmin?

By default:

Windows: 7DaysToDie_Data/output_log.txt

Linux: ~/.config/unity3d/The Fun Pimps/7 Days To Die/player.log

Linux with my scripts: /home/sdtd/instances/<name>/logs/current_output.log

MacOS: somewhere in the users profile folder.

Don't ask me whether Tcadmin influences this, I never used it ,)

 

[Novahaze]

I downloaded my output log and it seems to show only the past 15-20 mins. The last crash was approx 5 hours ago

 

[Alloc]

It's regenerated every time you start the server so yes, you will have to get it after the problem occured.

Sorry took me a while to figure out how to upload notepad. here's the end of it.

One more thing... I've noticed while im ingame when i open up the admins console this message is repeatedly spammed in chat (once per second )

an invalid object handle was used.

I dont know if this is causing the crashes or if its just an innocent glitch in the game?
