Vanilla 1.1.5a is a product of Lussumo. More Information: Documentation, Community Support.

  1.  
    As promised, I fixed the TyD AC ladder so it's ready for AC 1.0. The new game modes are supported now, of course. It's still 'beta' now, hopefully we won't find any major bugs.

    The ladder can still be found at http://ladder.tearyoudown.org/. The old 0.93 is still available, it moved to http://ladder.tearyoudown.org/0.93/.

    Scores have been calculated since December 1st.

    Bug reports, suggestions and comments are welcome, of course!

    Nice. I change my nick all the time though... but whatever :)
  3.  
    makkE: not much I can do about it, especially when people use dynamic IP's. The only solution would be a central registration system in AC, I think.

    Thanks for setting this up again. My anonymous name is ranked higher than my actual one :P
    Are you going to share server the code this time around to include more servers than just the TyD ones?
  4.  
    I'm thinking on writing some sort of 'contributor' script for other servers. Still need to figure out how to do that, move that data and then merge the scores, etc.

    Clown, any way you could publish the ladder data via xml as well? So we could show the top players from the tyd ladder on the ac website, if you let us do that.
  5.  
    Nice idea, i'm an XML noob though :( so give me some time to fix something. How exactly would you like the XML to be formatted?
  6.  
    hi clown !

    how do you gather data from serverlogs? and automatically put it in an ladder list? because we in viperbrood need a ladder for a new year cup?

    but i don't now if this is knowlegde you give to other people? idk

    but we really need it ;)

    Clown, my suggestion:


    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
    <AssaultCubeLadder LadderVersion="1" AssaultCubeVersion="1.0">
    <Publisher>TyD</Publisher>
    <Date>
    <Start>PutStartDateHere</Start>
    <End>PutEndDateHereIfKnown</End>
    <CurrentSnapshot>PutCurrentDateHere</CurrentSnapshot>
    </Date>
    <Players>
    <Player ID="UniqueIDHereIfAvailable">
    <Name></Name>
    <Rank></Rank>
    <Score></Score>
    <Killing>
    <Frags></Frags>
    ...
    <Suicides></Suicides>
    </Killing>
    <Flags>
    <Scored></Scored>
    ...
    <Kept></Kept>
    </Flags>
    </Player>
    <Player>
    ...
    <Player>
    </Players>
    </AssaultCubeLadder>


    I think that should do it..
  7.  
    NikolaiH: read the logs, count what happens. If you have no idea where to begin, I really don't think you should be aiming at wanting to make something like this, it's not that easy.


    driAn: thanks, I'll try that!
  8.  
    Clown: im just 14 years old, and i have much homework. so i cant either count or fix something like this for myself ;)

    @Nikolai
    I can asure you that Clown and several others people here are very busy. So if you have no time to use the provided information to create an own ladder system by yourself or there is a lack in knowledge in programming and server handling then any requests in that direction are pointless. One thing is for sure: Clown has not that time to take up that job for VB.
  9.  
    okay whatever... what do you say if i says official ladder then? it would be needed, and not only for VB...
    not arguing ;)
  10.  
    driAn (and others), I've created an XML output script for the Ladder (hurray for the XML::Writer Perl module which made it so easy). I mostly used your XML scheme, some dates aren't avaiable yet, I need to figure those out.

    I wrote some documentation on it, it's available at http://ladder.tearyoudown.org/xml.html.

    I made the XML output script customizable so that other clans can use it (if their webpage/CMS supports it) to display their own specific data, like the ladder scores for their members.

    As always, feedback is welcome!

    Lol, considering I have 4 names on there, I'm considerably low :p. Was in top 200 in v.93. I wanna make top 100 in V1.0

    Nice one clown very well done.
    Im on the ladder twice under:

    Nitemare|NS|
    and
    Nitemare(S4L)

    I was wondering if i could get the NS one removed as i am discontiued in that clan.

    That Would Be Appreciated

    It also keeps a running tally of everyone (refer to the .93 ladder if you don't understand what I'm saying).

    "Bug report"

    Anyone called me ? LOL

    Does the ladder target only one TyD server, or every {TyD} serv you own ?

    EDIT: My mistake, I didn't read the title of the ladder page.
  15.  
    All public TyD servers. And as a bonus, once we get a few minor issues out of the way, the public BC servers will be reporting as well!

    With mates we found a problem in the ladder.
    .rG!|S4nzo'' isn't listed, maybe is it because of the two ' at the end of his name ?
  16.  
    @Brett
    maybe; but can you be sure that he
    1) played ever on a TyD server
    and
    2) in a match with the minimum players at the end of game
    and
    3)
    not a "blacklisted" map?

    My name is in caps in the ladder. Would it still count my scores since I like to use 4Bit/4bit [C=64] or does caps not matter? .
  17.  
    No. Different names mean different scores.

      CommentAuthorBrett
    • CommentTimeDec 22nd 2008
     
    Yes he already played on laddered servers.
    In matches that counted minimum players (8) at the end.
    We played all the last week-end on laddered servers with mates, you can check logs.
    I tried to find his scores in irc and ladder.tearyoudown.org, .rG!|S4nzo'' or " or `` nothing work.
    We didn't played any blacklisted map, we played official ones, on tyd and bc servers
  18.  
    BC still has an issue with their logging, so those servers might not work.
    Names with ' (single quotes) in it don't work at the moment, I hope to fix that somewhere soon.

    Yes, seems to work now.

    So now all public BC servers report to the AC Ladder as well!

    Are they taken hourly or daily?

    Daily at the moment, but I can see if I can increase that now the logrotate has been fixed.

    Ladder is very well done. I'm just wondering if another point system be added for Keep CTF, holding the guarding your own flag every so many seconds giving a very minor am amount of points. Seems like a little incentive to actually hold the flag.

    The whole system though seems to be working well for me, kudos for the work.
