Hi all
I might be releasing a free-to-use (credit me) account system script which you can easily expand/adapt.

Its for use on non-cracked servers only atm, as the cracked servers do no support getguid().

It comes with a few built-in functions, which are: checkrank(), promoted() and counter() (for time_played).

Here is the readme. Tell me if you like it:


/*
Functions you can call within this file:
-init(); CALL THIS FUNCTION ONLY AT THE START OF THE GAME
-addstat(stat,amount);
-updatestats();

How to use:
Call [player] addstat(stat,amount) with a statistic and an amount to add to that statistic
Example: self addstat("deaths",1);
Example: attacker addstat("kills",1);
After you added all the stats you wanted to write, call [player] updatestats();
Example: self updatestats();
Example: attacker updatestats();


If you want to read a stat from a player, just use: [player].stats["[stat goes here]"];
Example: if(self.stats["rank"]>30)
Example: if(attacker.stats["xp"]>1000)

Do not manually assign values to the self.stats[] array!
Example of what NOT TO DO: self.stats["kills"]=30;
Example of what NOT TO DO: attacker.stats["deaths"]++;


Legal stuff:
You can use, modify, distribute the contents of this file.

You cannot sell the contents or the modified contents of this file.

If the file is modified, you MUST publish it if someone asks for it.

You cannot ask money for this file, or any mod based on this file (you can however charge for custom functions that do NOT rely on this file to work)

If this file was sold to you, you were tricked and should get a refund!

If you do not agree with above terms, DO NOT USE THIS FILE!

I took great care of this coding, so if anything breaks, or causes damage (ie. data loss) I will NOT be responsible

Anyone interested in obtaining this script?

No one interested? Ill keep the script private then....

The mapping and modding scene is very quiet at the moment, someone may find it of use but with new games coming out and less supporting modding.. the future is bleak

Ofcourse we are interested! But i think the script was really hard to make. Are u sure u want to share it? U will get spammed how to let it work on people their server xD. I'm interested in ur script. I think i will learn very much from it.

Script is about the easiest thing in the world, as you can read in the readme i posted in firstpost.

It also has a ranking system in it, which reads the ranks from a file.
Snippet from said file:

0,Private First Class,
30,Private First Class I,
120,Private First Class II,
270,Lance Corporal,
480,Lance Corporal I,
750,Lance Corporal II,
1080,Corporal,
1470,Corporal I,
1920,Corporal II,
2430,Sergeant,
3000,Sergeant I,
3650,Sergeant II,
4380,Staff Sergeant,
5190,Staff Sergeant I,
6080,Staff Sergeant II,
7050,Gunnery Sergeant,

You can ofcourse fully customize this :)

Easiest thing in the world? U use writefile and openfile etc. Thats still a blackhole in the cod2 scene

nwestenberg writes...

Didnt say it was easy to write (for me it was), but easy to USE.

Only a few functions to call, no hassle with write/readfile etc :)

Edit: why is it hard to use write/readfile? damn, those functions are way too easy....
And it is exactly why i am thinking of leaving the cod2 scene: too easy to create stuff lol

Then u "must" publish it :) or send me a pm or send me on xfire :P

Im interesting in the archive update and go add me xfire wizard1995

Due to overwhelming requests (ahum) I decided to release this script.

_stattracking goes in your mod (serverside is preferred) and
ranks_config.txt goes in the scriptdata folder of your fs_game/main folder, serverside only.

Readme:

Functions you can call within this file:
-init(); CALL THIS FUNCTION ONLY AT THE START OF THE GAME
-addstat(stat,amount);
-updatestats();
-getstat(stat);

How to use:

Call [player] addstat(stat,amount) with a statistic and an amount to add to that statistic
Example: self addstat("deaths",1);
Example: attacker addstat("kills",1);

After you added all the stats you wanted to write, call [player] updatestats();
Example: self updatestats();
Example: attacker updatestats();

You can also get a stat from a player, and, to avoid errors, you most likely will use the function i created for this: getstat(stat)
Example: if(self getstat("rank")>30)
Example: if(attacker getstat("xp")>1000)

Do not manually assign values to the self.stats[] array!
Example of what NOT TO DO: self.stats["kills"]=30;
Example of what NOT TO DO: attacker.stats["deaths"]++;

To add more stats to track: simply add them to the level.stats array in init_stattracking(). Then, write your own script to increase them at given moments :)



[advice] To update huds based on stats that are added, piggyback on the addstat() function. Add a case in the addstat() function, and call whatever you use to update your hud from there.
[advice] To substract certain things from a statfile, just call addstat([stat], [amount]) with a negative amount. Example: self addstat("xp",-1000);
[advice] Due to some shortcuts in the scripting, piggybacking on the addstat to update huds based on rank-changes does not work. Piggyback on the promoted() function to update your rank-dependent huds accordingly.
