DeathPenalty 2.0.3

Hey there! would it be possible to instead of deducting a raw amount, deduct a % of a players total $ or RP instead? It makes it easier to balance out dying as a new player vs a long time veteran.

It would be nice if we could also subtract some zLevel instead of Economics or Server Rewards

Possibly because of F1->Kill or NPC deaths?

I will look into that, it is a cast, so it is most likely a value issue. I use cast a few times and will review them all.  Can you please shoot me your configuration, so I can test it?

Using the default Config, noticed the Cast error when I was F1 -> Kill'ing, killed by NPC/Animal/Attack chopper. Also using RustRewards, ServerRewards, GatherRewards, etc. so not sure if there is anything conflicting. 

{
  "Penalty Type (amount or percent)": "amount",
  "Penalty Amount": -100.0,
  "Use Economics": false,
  "Use ServerRewards": true,
  "Use Scrap": false

WIP, still testing but it clean up the logic and added a try around the part that might fail due to a missing plugin.

 

No more error from NPC death (bear) or F1->Kill but it did not subtract the RP and gave me the "You are dead poor" message even though I have plenty of RP on this account. 

Would it be possible to add a max loss amount? eg max amount loss=1000 so when a player has 50k rp they only loose 1k rather than 5k at a 10% loss rate

Is it possible to penalize players without permissions instead of penalizing them for enabling permissions?

If you want to avoid penalties with timed permissions etc, disabling them individually will still be overridden by group permissions.

IdeaExample: default state (no permissions) ➔ penalties occur
Allow 'deathpenalty.bypass' ➔ no penalty

It's simple and smart when it comes to differentiation.

My server uses a survival arena. Even death during an event results in a penalty, which makes some players hesitant to participate in the event.

Is it possible to temporarily suspend the event due to zones, etc., or to disable it during the survival arena

Or is it possible to temporarily suspend the event using a command?

Can't this be fixed as the penalty is imposed when you are downed, not when you die?
Or I'd like it to be possible to set a cooldown.
Whenever you get hit by a bullet from an NPC while you're down but not dead, a penalty is imposed, so you end up getting penalized multiple times before you die.

Since we used a translation, some of the wording was incorrect so we have rewritten it.
Currently, penalties are imposed when you go down, not when you die, so we would like you to reconsider this if possible.
Also, if you are attacked by an NPC while down, a penalty is imposed for each attack, which results in a large amount of penalty being imposed.
For this reason, we would like to see a penalty imposed when you are completely dead, as mentioned earlier, or a cooldown period.

It is using the hook: OnEntityDeath

It would be bizarre to trigger on down.  Are you sure you have the correct Death Penalty plugin?  There are two out there.

If I open the plugin file directly, I will see the following:
[Info("DeathPenalty", "mals", "2.0.3")]

Maybe other plugins are interfering...
However, it would be a shame to have to inflict death penalties on players multiple times in a row, so this could be resolved by adding a cooldown period.
I hope this can be added as an option.
