Lordicon Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 @Lordicon - Thats a Feature Request for a Server-Manager and not for such a Server-Plugin. I want to control such things in a central application. I understand its for a Server Manager however there are no good server managers out that check this at all. It also seems to be the number one thing a hacker gets caught with so might as well have it as a plugin, No one wants anyone with stacked items on a server so why have a Server Manager that can enable or disable the stack items when you can do it with a plugin and be done with the cheaters all together?

Because there are people who do not know that this is a bug or accidentally use the whole thing with an evil intention. A new Server Manager is currently programmed by Mike06 and a few other people. Currently I have sent a few ideas and wishes for the New 7DTD Server Monitor to Mike06.

Lordicon Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Because there are people who do not know that this is a bug or accidentally use the whole thing with an evil intention. So your saying that people that log in to a server with a stack size of 2500 have no idea that they just cheated? Also that people with this high stack count don't realize its a bug at all when you can tell the normal stack size by lifting one stack out of the whole pile? Please name one way a person could accidentally use the thing as at evil intention when there would be a warning PMed to the player with the high stack count so they know to get rid of it in advance? EDIT: Not trying to argue with you just trying to get a better understanding of why this would be a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markezzz Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Alloc's server fixes checking inventory not only when trying to connect to the server, but also in the course of the game and thus is not only the alleged cheaters affected but also all the other players. Or have I misunderstood something what the audit of inventory and stacks regards Alloc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or have I misunderstood something what the audit of inventory and stacks regards Alloc? I always thought the server fixes have been checking every single players inventory this whole time anyway for the past month already so the new map plugin worked showing the players inventory on the map. So if it has already been doing it this whole time then why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolio Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Yea the only people that would have any problem with this are the Admins that like to ban players for cheating but cheat themselves, Go figure An idiot statement like that could only possibly be made by a hypocrite admin, making such statements as if to encompass every admin is really stupid, it is also there server therefore there rules, Go figure that. And as you asked for my php script on this last week, you should know that any player on my server duping items doesn't get banned they just get called out in public chat when they join the server and everytime the script runs that they have x item in x quantity so everyone knows. This games current state leaves very little choice for admins to use there server the way they want to, suffice to say if the dupe wasn't just fixed in the first place, this wouldn't be a problem, but its not, and so I will use it as it is really is the only way to have unlimited items without exposing creative to everyone on the server or the hassle of taking out items all the time etc. Until that is fixed this way of cheating will be used as it allows me to use a large stack of blocks without all the inconveniences of not doing so. Option to have this inventory cheat check disabled would be better option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markezzz Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Thats correct, but not for stacks of items. This is the new Feature of the currently build. I really dont want a autoban function. A auto-pm function to all admins on the server is more than enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Option to have this inventory cheat check disabled would be better option. I never stated to have the msg sent global for everyone too see it, I stated that it get PM'ed using the PM command to the player. Also maybe I am wrong by saying that Admins that want to have high stack counts are the only ones that will say no and I will admit when I am wrong in saying something like this. HOWEVER, A easy fix for any Admins on the server would be that if your permission level = 0 then this would not effect you and if your permission level = anything else it does. Never in my days as being an Admin in any game have I ever done anything to a player in Public chat so no way I would want that. BTW When I asked for your php script it had nothing to do with the script itself it all had to do with checking your function on connecting to the server so that I could add it to my own script for something completely different. I never really used yours just the function within. Thanks for that btw it helped a lot. - - - Updated - - - Thats correct, but not for stacks of items. This is the new Feature of the currently build. I really dont want a autoban function. A auto-pm function to all admins on the server is more than enough. Even an auto PM to admins online would be great because then actions can be taken by the Admins themselves and not rely on a piece of code. Not all the admins have access or can see the logs and not every admin has the time too check every player. So not a bad idea. Matter of fact I will be glad to say this would be better then the auto ban because at least there would be a warning sent to the Admins to take action.

Soylent Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 (edited) Just added it as a log message. Also just changed give/listitems so that you should be able to use it for about everything Awesome, thanks! Do you plan on adding a way to turn on notifications? For example, change the color of the user marker in the webserver map? Or have an automatic, customized chat message appear? The autoban thing is tricky, I know... as players will sometimes find these stacks in bags/chests. However, a server owner may decide that nobody is allowed to have these "hacky stacks", whether you made them or not. I think a warning in chat would be sufficient (with an option to either send it globally, or a PM), and changing the color/notification on the webserver so an admin can see it if they aren't currently online. The thing for me is that when this happens, it's usually very late night/early morning for me and I am never online. I'd like to be able to have some automated method to catch cheaters, and this tool would be the first one that can do it. Is it possible to send the logs in a syslog format somehow? There's a million syslog readers out there, and you could mark certain messages with levels like debug/info/warning/critical, etc..

Alloc Posted September 22, 2014 Author Share Posted September 22, 2014 (edited) Sure, in the end that's one of the things to get to. I thought of something like a notifications area on the webpage events like those could be shown. In game the only useful thing would probably be to PM admins/mods as suggested above which I think is a quite good idea /EDIT: Just saw your edit... An additional log would be possible if I created a completely new log abstraction layer on top of Unity's ... But that's nothing I'm gonna do, sorry Edited September 22, 2014 by Alloc (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordicon Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Great Alloc! You also noticed my last request with the suicide command for players on the server? ) This would be a good idea to have a suicide feature, However it needs to be set on some sort of timer, Don't need players spamming the command every 2 seconds. Maybe 1 suicide per hour or something of that nature. If a player has to use suicide once it is understandable however if they use it more then 1 time every hour or so then they are doing something they should not do anyway.

Soylent Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 The webserver is the best part about this thing. I think that's going to end up being the primary management system for dedi servers. Some more crazy ideas I've thought of as I play with this tool: -Mass teleport players (for an arena battle!) -Specify a coordinate on the map, and when a player stands on that location, it will teleport them somewhere to another coordinate Also: -Replace Telnet with (or add) SSH server for security -Triggered email notifications (like if certain words appear in the log) What do you think?

Is it giving you any trouble or just those nasty messages? -Mass teleport players (for an arena battle!) Basically seems to be a high level feature that can be added on top of it later on. -Specify a coordinate on the map, and when a player stands on that location, it will teleport them somewhere to another coordinate Teleports, sounds like a good idea. Later on, when the core is stable and configuration is added -Replace Telnet with (or add) SSH server for security Actually thought about this almost at the beginning of developing this mod. Unfortunately the only .NET implementation I could find is "SSHBlackbox" from Eldos. If you want to buy me a license (466 € + VAT) we can talk about it -Triggered email notifications (like if certain words appear in the log) Same as teleport: Relies on configuration and more functionality.

Alloc Posted September 22, 2014 Author Share Posted September 22, 2014 erm, are those really negative uptimes in the beginning of the lines there? Have never seen that either. Could you try restarting the server and see if it still happens? If it does try without the mod and/or with a new save game (just for testing).

Could you try restarting the server and see if it still happens? If it does try without the mod and/or with a new save game (just for testing). This is on a live server and auto restart is set to go in about 10 mins so ill just wait for that restart. In order to do with a new save I would have to load a test server up. Can do that after the restart test. Also I have always had negative uptimes and I have no idea why <---- I may be wrong about always having them but I have noticed them in the past, normally when zombies and stuff bugs out on the server and stop moving all together.

Lordicon Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 30 Minutes in and not seeing error any more after a simple restart.

7daysguy Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Anyone have an idea of what's causing this error? I have had Alloc's fixes working successfully for a long time now, and everything was working fine up until this point. The server crashed this afternoon, since then it is in a stalled state where people get stuck in the loading screen (even though the control panel shows it as being up). KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary. at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[system.String,ChunkAreaBiomeSpawnData+scl0000].get_Item (System.String key) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at ChunkAreaBiomeSpawnData.SetRespawnLocked (System.String _entityGroupName, UInt64 _currentWorldTime, .WorldBiomes _worldBiomes) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at SpawnManagerBiomes.md0001 (.cl0002 par0001, EnumRemoveEntityReason par0002) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at World.md005f (.cl0002 par0001, EnumRemoveEntityReason par0002) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at World.md005b (Single _partialTicks) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at GameManager.Update () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 (Filename: Line: -1) I am not using any other mods at the moment. The error seems to have cropped up spontaneously. It's almost as though a DLL got corrupted or something? Native commands such as 'lp' work, but any of Alloc's commands just give a message like they worked but nothing happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7daysguy Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Just to update, my host "verified" the files and found nothing out of place, but after they did that everything worked fine again. So who knows. Anyways, thanks a lot to Alloc for this awesome mod. I don't think I can overstate how awesome it is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Prometheus Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Hello, I installed Server Fixes rev 199 to my dedicated server (using Mod Manager @ Pingperfect hosting). When I start the server, there is the following error message in server log: MissingMethodException: Method not found: 'EasyAntiCheat.Server.ServerConfiguration..ctor'. The message is there regardless if anti-cheat is enabled or disabled on server side. And no user can join the server now - client stops with a message Waiting for server... and server log says as the last 3 lines 168.366 Allowing player with id 1 175.010 RequestToEnterGame: 1/Prometheus 175.034 GMSG: Prometheus joined the game and nothing is happening after that. Any advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soylent Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Does anyone know of any application that can watch for certain text in a telnet session, and then send a command? For example, when the log shows a player inventory item over the allowed stack, it send a command into the game (like "say")? I know that FrontRunnerTek does this with slash commands, but I'm looking for something universal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I start the server, there is the following error message in server log: There have been two reports of exactly the same thing before. One of them solved it by revalidating the games files through Steam, can't find the other one anymore If you have access to the files I would recommend deleting the 7DaysToDie_Data/Managed folder and have Steam revalidate the files. No access to the files: Revalidate only. If even that isn't possible have Pingperfect do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
