Wiki needs more detail

[BugZappa]

Afternoon, I am having a real hard time following the wiki guide provided, i tried setting up stat tracking and the game-interface plugin however, i suspect there are gaps in the documentation.

The documentation indicates that _zm_stats_t6.gsc needs to be placed in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Plutonium\storage\t6\scripts\zm\ but does not at all tell you where to get this .gsc file, i tried subscribing to the premium version of the zombies stats plugin hoping to get this .gsc file but once i got through the checkout absolutely nothing happened, no email, no dll download, no .gsc file or anything.

Unfortunately i do not agree with Discords TOS nor Privacy Policy, hence these discussion posts, @RaidMax can you please comment and clear up this confusion.

Thanks,

[RaidMax]

The game interface gsc is included with every IW4MAdmin release... It's in the GameFiles folder. The premium zombies is a WIP plugin not available to the public yet.

Afternoon, Thank you for your reply!

The game interface gsc is included with every IW4MAdmin release... It's in the GameFiles folder. The premium zombies is a WIP plugin not available to the public yet.

For the regular (non-premium) stats plugin, Is _zm_stats_t6.gsc in another repository because it doesn't appear to exist within your repo?

I've followed the GameInterface wiki as described and, as far as i can tell is working.

Side note; I did notice that once i added the GameInterface .gsc to my scripts folder that players would get a "\n" added to their name, which i found odd, i don't think this is intended and so far no errors have been risen by IW4MAdmin.

Hope to hear back!

Edit:

I manually edited the sqlite db to correct all the aliases effect by the "\n", here is hoping it sticks and doesn't start doing it again.

Edit 2:

Even after manually editing the EFAlias table in the db and correcting the aliases, the "\n" issue continues to occur.

Edit 3:

After some more digging i found this line in the _integration_shared.gsc

    return "JT;" + guid + ";" + self getEntityNumber() + ";" + team + ";" + self.name + "\n";

I've just tested the game interface on T6ZM, and it works fine. No changes. !gw commands work as expected. My name isn't suffixed with \n. Not sure what can cause it for you, but removing the \n isn't the "fix." That's for newlining in the log files; you will find that same \n on essentially every single log printout. It may indicate an issue with your logflush setting. Not certain.

Also, the ZM stats are a WIP feature. It's not in the develop branch; it's in the zombie-stats branch. There's also a paired PR for it.

https://github.com/RaidMax/IW4M-Admin/tree/feature/zombie-stats (#400)

You can switch to it, but note that we will offer zero support regarding it since it's not ready.

It's being tested on HGM's instance currently: https://cod.hgmserve.rs/stats/zombies

Yeah i am not sure either, i just finished wiping the Database, Gamefiles, Lib, Localization, Log, Plugins, Resources and wwwroot folders, killed the container and let IW4MAdmin rebuild the files and it still persists, whats weird is that it doesn't occur on the first connection, once someone leaves the server is when it begins to suffix everyone's names with \n.

I also cloned the git repo and replaced the GameInterface .gsc in hopes it would resolve it but alas, it has not.

I am thinking that the other .gsc files i have in my scripts/zm folder are perhaps interfering with IW4MAdmin causing this issue, i may have to consider investigating my mods/scripts.

By chance do you know how to set the log level to debug? Perhaps i can catch something in the debug logs.

EDIT

So i did a little reflecting on your previous comment and decided to check my games_zm.log file and suprisingly the \n issue resides there as well,

I suppose some .gsc is failing to properly create the new line as you mentioned previously?

Edit 2;

So I deleted all my gsc in my /scripts/zm folder except for the GameInterface .gsc and it still persisted.

Ahhhh, I had no idea the stats feature for ZM as a whole was a work in progress, i kept referring myself to the wiki which made it sound publicly available, i was wondering what the hell i was missing, thank you for this clarification.
