Auto Update Leaderboard

Hi,
I'm not sure that would be a good idea - The main data file and sql do update regularly, but it is an update - There's only ever one set of data.

Leader boards are different because they don't update - You create a brand new one. Each one is unique and timestamped.
It's like a snap-shot of the #1 players at that time, so saving one every time the server saves, for example, would build up lots of data very quickly.

Saving a leaderboard can be done with console command, though, so you have the option of using some other plugin to call that - I'm pretty sure there are timed command plugins out there.
It would be easy enough to have another plugin save a leaderboard, when some event ends for example.

If I can help at all give me a shout, but I'm not sure regular saving leaderboards is needed/a good idea.

 

Oh, I wasn't aware of that!
I'll get a look at that now and see what's wrong. Thank you!

Hi @BjarkeH
I just took a look. It looks like it should be working fine.
The admin permission is required for wiping leaderboards, though.
I've now changed that so admin perm is required *if* a player is using the command, which means it can then be used from console/rcon too.

Also, that command would wipe local data, but not SQL.
To wipe SQL leaderboards you'd need to just drop them in your SQL panel.

Does that answer the request, or is there more to it?

Also, I'm attaching a copy that addresses those headshot requests.

• Added PVP Headshots only option - Defaulted to true. (npcs dont count)
• Added PVP Headshots only count if kill - Defaulted to false.

I meant to send it to you earlier!
