Talk:Scripts:ClanTkProtection

For those that want to know how to get this to work:

Make a backup of your drive:\Battlefield 2 Server\admin\standard_admin\tk_punish.py

Copy the text into a new file in that same directory and name it tk_punish.py

Open this new tk_punish.py with your favourite text editor Edit this line:

clanmembers = ["|TAG|Bill","|TAG|John","|TAG|Blue"]#clan members to protect

with the names of members you want to protect, typically your admins

Protecting via clantag match

While putting in individual usernames does provide precision control, it doesn't lend itself to maintainability (each time you add a clan member or they change their name, you need to modify the script).

We can change the way this is controlled by changing our method of comparison. Please see below:

protected_clantags = ['*C1*', '*MoG*', '=STFC=']
protected_individuals = ['Friend_of_Our_Clan','My_Brother']

killer = attacker.getName()
for tag in protected_clantags:
    if tag in killer: return
for friend in protected_individuals:
    if killer == friend: return

Alternately, if you want more control, you can specify a substring to exactly match. For example, tag == killer[:len(tag)] if the tag is in the front, or tag = killer[-len(tag):] if it's in the end. This can be controlled by making a tuple of dics and adding logic to specify checking end or beginning. -- Doulostheos 05:05, 9 Jul 2005 (MDT)

Enhanced clantag & ign match

#killer = "Friend_of_C=CGN=lan"
killer = attacker.getName()

protected_clans = ( {"clan_name":"wicked",
              "clan_tag":"w.",
              "tag_location":"START"},                    
             {"clan_name":"Men of God",
              "clan_tag":"*MoG*",
              "tag_location":"END"},
             {"clan_name":"Christian Gaming Network",
              "clan_tag":"=CGN=",
              "tag_location":"ANY"},)

protected_individuals = ["My_Mommy","Friend_of_Clan"]

for clan in protected_clans:
    if clan["tag_location"] == "START" and clan["clan_tag"] == killer[:len(clan["clan_tag"])]: return
    elif clan["tag_location"] == "END" and clan["clan_tag"] == killer[-len(clan["clan_tag"]):]: return
    elif clan["tag_location"] == "ANY" and clan["clan_tag"] in killer: return

for ign in protected_individuals:
    if ign == killer: return

ClanTkProtection & Ranked servers question

I was looking through the scripts and was wondering if this specific script can be used on ranked servers.
