Heyho alliedmodders,

My community runs a couple of trade servers. Recently we noticed that our playerbase of mature people willing to trade was more or less replaced by 12 year old rumanian kids basically spamming you with trade invites as soon as you connect to the server with an unusual in your inventory to offer you their voodoo cursed soul for your unusual. To prevent this and maybe get some of the old players back i need your help to code the following plugin. In general: Im into coding, just not very familar with SourcePawn, but in general if you have any snippets that help me develop this plugin I feel "good enough" to code it by myself.

Now to the plugin:

I need a plugin that does the following:
When a new player connects it requests the steam api for profile and backpack information.
After this it compares the fetched data to criterias defined by cvars.
Possible Criterias are:
  • Backpack Value (maybe bp.tf support)
  • All In All Playtime
  • profile private settings

I'd really appreciate your help. Of cause I will release this as new plugin when its finished.

thx in advance

flobbo

sorry for the late response. I did quite some searching on this, but the result was pretty useless. I did try to port the code from the VAC Ban Checker here to check the all in all tf2 playtime with steams API (http://api.steampowered.com/ISteamUs...xxx&format=xml
), but it didn't really work. It would be very helpful if you could provide me with a link to one if those plugins.

A person's total playtime can be changed with Steam Achievement Manager.
Additionally a friend's only profile would prevent backpack.tf from scanning your backpack.
