Plutonium

@Skwll All my servers don't have a single repeated map, so I don't think I have that many servers just to take up space in the server browser. I've been thinking for some time to suggest to the plutonium staff that they increase the zombies servers keys limit, even because of the limited number of players per server, compared to multiplayer. Another point to mention is the owners of servers that host servers in various places in the world such as Europe and the United States for example. Also remembering that I only found out about the keys limit per game mode after the plutonium website was renewed. So I think a wise decision by the staff would be to re-inform the new guidelines to all server owners, especially the old ones, before taking any action.

birchy this is a much easier way to do it, but by integrating the script into the panel you will have information on who was kicked, when and why.

Guys i created a script that kicks players who use more slots per class than the one determined by cfg. As I searched in various places and I found nothing about it, I decided to post it here. Below is the instructions on how to install on your server.

Call the player thread maxalloc_block (); in the onplayerconnect function.

onplayerconnect()
{
	for ( ;; )
	{
		level waittill( "connecting", player );
		player.clientid = level.clientid;
		level.clientid++;
		player thread onplayerspawned();
		player thread maxalloc_block();
	}
}

place the following function anywhere in your script

maxalloc_block() {
  	self endon("disconnect");
	level endon("game_ended");
	self waittill( "spawned_player" );
	
	level.maxAllocation = getDvarInt("maxAlloc_value");
	if(level.maxAlloc_value == " ")
	SetDvar("maxAlloc_value", 10);
  	
	level.maxAlloc_enable = getDvarInt("maxAlloc_enable");
	if(level.maxAlloc_enable == " ")
	SetDvar("maxAlloc_enable", 1);
  	
 	for (class = 0; class < 10; class++) {
    	if (self getLoadoutAllocation(class) > level.maxAllocation && level.maxAlloc_enable == 1) {
	  		logprint( "ScriptMaxAlloc;" + self getguid() + "\n");
      		break;
    }
  }
}

Extract and copy the following file to the iw4mAdmin folder

https://github.com/viniciusmdev/Slots-limiter-by-class/releases/download/1.1/copy_to_iw4mAdmin_folder.rar

Set this lines on your cfg file:

set maxAlloc_enable 1  // 1 Enable | 0 Disable - Default 1
set maxAlloc_value 10  // Max value of slots per classe - Default 10

Compiled script file:

Source code:

I used the Generic Log Parser plugin to communicate the gsc script with the iw4madmin panel, follow the link

Here is a video of the script working.

FragsAreUs My point is that especially for old server owners, the key limit per game mode was not made so clear. I guarantee that many people haven't had the opportunity to look through all the docs on the new plutonium website to find this out. That's why my concern is to make this very clear to everyone and only then to severely punish those who don't comply with this rule.

mikey today the server was 24 hrs without any crash, yesterday when I activated the script 2 tranzit maps crashed. Before, there was also no crash. So yes I think it's because of that script, but you can test it too.

FragsAreUs Once the decision is made, an announcement on discord would be great to reach those who don't have as much time to dedicate to the servers. A suggestion would be to put a warning about the keys limit in each server setup documentation and also on the page where the keys are created. By doing this I don't think there's any room for someone to argue that they didn't see the rule.

@Skwll Because as FragsAreUs said the plutonium staff is already discussing increasing the key limit for t6zm and t4zm modes, so I thought this decision would be taken in a few days. But if this decision is delayed and someone from the staff recommends me to disable the servers that have exceeded the limit, I will disable it now without any problem.
