Hello, I'm trying to make a "happy hour" - a time frame, when all points scored are being multiplied. I looked into the ingame plugin, but I didn't find anything useful - I guess this whole stuff is handled by a daemon. Could you please help me and at least show me the way I should go?

Look at "sub calcSkill" (line ~390) in hlstats.pl

Just modify dis:

my $modifier = 1.00;
# Look up the weapon's skill modifier
if (defined($g_games{$g_servers{$s_addr}->{game}}{weapons}{$weapon})) {
$modifier = $g_games{$g_servers{$s_addr}->{game}}{weapons}{$weapon}{modifier};
}

to check current time.

Thanks melkor217!

If anyone else finds this thread, this is what I've came up with.

hlstats.pl (lines 482 - 489):

PHP Code:

#$killerSkill += $killerSkillChange;
  my $hour = (localtime)[2];
  if ( $hour >= $g_happystart or $hour < $g_happyend ) {
      $killerSkill += ($killerSkillChange * $g_happymultiplier);
  } else {
      $killerSkill += $killerSkillChange;
  }
  $victimSkill -= $victimSkillChange; 


hlstats.pl (lines 1515 - 1518 ):

PHP Code:

$g_gi = undef;
$g_happystart = 22;
$g_happyend = 6;
$g_happymultiplier = 2; 


hlstats.pl (lines 1789 - 1792):

PHP Code:

        "Proxy_Key",                "proxy_key",
        "HappyStart",                "g_happystart",
        "HappyEnd",                    "g_happyend",
        "HappyMultiplier",            "g_happymultiplier" 


web\pages\admintasks\options.php (lines 281 - 284):

PHP Code:

    $optiongroups[50]->options[] = new Option('SkillRatioCap', '*Cap killer\'s gained skill with ratio using *XYZ*SaYnt\'s method "designed such that an excellent player will have to get about a 2:1 ratio against noobs to hold steady in points"', 'select');
    $optiongroups[50]->options[] = new Option('HappyStart', '*Time when Happy Hours should start. Default 22', 'text');
    $optiongroups[50]->options[] = new Option('HappyEnd', '*Time when Happy Hours should end. Default 6', 'text');
    $optiongroups[50]->options[] = new Option('HappyMultiplier', '*Points multiplier during Happy Hours. Default 2', 'text');
