[RELEASE] Vote Manager

Xerxes

Introduction

Bring democracy to your server before the US discovers oil on it. With Vote Manager, VM for short, you can add basic votes to your game servers.

Features:

Each votes logic is clearly separated from VM itself, hopefully we can load custom votes at some point through reflection.
Comes with 3 different types of votes
- Votekick (!vk) - starts a vote to kick a player
- Votemap (!vm) - starts a vote to switch to a certain map
- Voteskip (!vs) - starts a vote to skip the current map
veto (!veto) right for Moderators
Customoize-able minimum amount of players.
- Don’t set it too low or it will be abused.
Adds details about the vote to the profile of the victim (votekick only) to make it easier to recognize certain patterns.

@xerxes I have a problem, I implemented it but it does not register the votes when a vote starts. There are always 2 votes YES and 0 votes No, also when voting it tells me that there is no voting in progress.

VoteManagerMap File
 "IsEnabled": true,
  "TimeToVote": 30,
  "TimeBetweenReminders": 7
////////////
VoteManagerSkip File
 "IsEnabled": true,
  "TimeToVote": 30,
  "TimeBetweenReminders": 7

There are always one automantic yes vote for the person that started the vote and if it targets a player an automatic no votes as well.
What you describe should never happen if you use the commands in-game.

Kalitos

@xerxes I understand that, what I do not understand is how many votes you must register for the vote to be approved, since a while ago 7 “yes” votes were registered and nothing happened, when it was supposed to have made the change of map.

Xerxes

@kalitos more than 50% of the players connected must vote for yes.

Kalitos

@xerxes What function does this line
What number should I define here

  "TimeBetweenReminders": 4

Xerxes

@kalitos None, its a place holder but the idea is to have periodical reminders that there are votes in progress.
I have had to push an emergency fix because iw4ma was changing its API.

Kalitos

@xerxes I understand, but this topic may sound tired, I still have that problem with the message “no voting is in progress” when someone starts a vote and also the votes are not registered after the voting has started, I checked since they start a vote I vote !n and in the results shows 2 votes !y and 0 votes !n

Xerxes

@kalitos This is just not possible if you use the commands in the ingame chat.

@xerxes
I show the plugin log.

Additionally, I see that 2 or 3 or more votemap can be started at the same time, I think that it should not allow starting a votemap if there is already one in progress, likewise with voteskip

Kalitos

As I said, there is a vote, I choose to vote and it tells me there is no vote in progress

@kalitos said in [RELEASE] Vote Manager:

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

WTH?

Which IW4ma Version do you have?

Kalitos

@xerxes Lastest version, 2021.1.24.2

Xerxes

@kalitos Can you increase the log level and try to get a stack trace?

Kalitos

@xerxes How do I do that

Xerxes

Try the latest version or restart your IW4mA if you got it from the plug-in store.

It should be fixed there.

Kalitos

@xerxes I use the latest version of IXW4Admin, or it refers to the plugin, I suppose it is the latest version since I do not see that it details any modification in the post.

Restart it ?, I’ve done it several times already. and it continues the same

Xerxes

Of course it refers to the plug-in, what else can you get from the plug-in store?

Kalitos

@xerxes Well, I tell you, the shopping cart gives me directly to this forum and this version is what I am using, or where else can I get the plugin or any version updates?

Xerxes

It also allows you to add it to your iw4ma instance automatically with automatic updates.
