Notes

Thanks to Tsunami for some great code in the [TF2] Class Restrictions plugin.

[BrutalGoerge]

Great idea for public servers. I think people respond more to this than being forced with class restrictions.

[DontWannaName]

What would be great is for it to look at the max classes from tsunamis and warn players choosing that class that its full since his doesnt do that.

[Antithasys]

I just set it to 1 below for the upper limit that I have set in the restrictions plugin. That way notices are sent out.

The added bonus is that you also get to set low limits.

[kopete]

Which value of the Lower limit class warnings are the right one, the < from u forum post above or the <= value out of the attached plugin.classnotifier.cfg?
(sorry cant´realy understand the source so i need to ask u)

Lower limit for class warnings
Value is <
Default is 0, or disabled
Setting to 3 means warnings will start 2 or less people on that class

// Lower limit for class warnings
// Value is <=
// Default is 0, or disabled
// Setting to 2 means warnings will start 2 or less people on that class

I want to set clsnote_lowlimit_blu_medics to 1 for the reason the players only receive a warning if no one plays the medic. This should only work whit the <, thats why im ask.

PHP Code:

stock bool:IsLow(iTeam, iClass) 
{
    if (iTeam > 1 && iClass > 0) {
        new iClassCount = GetClassCount(iClass, iTeam);
        new iLimit = GetConVarInt(g_hLowLimits[iTeam][iClass]);
        if (iLimit > 0 && iClassCount < iLimit) {
            return true;
        }
    }
    return false;
}

stock bool:IsHigh(iTeam, iClass) 
{
    if (iTeam > 1 && iClass > 0) {
        new iClassCount = GetClassCount(iClass, iTeam);
        new iLimit = GetConVarInt(g_hHighLimits[iTeam][iClass]);
        if (iLimit > 0 && iClassCount >= iLimit) {
            return true;
        }
    }
    return false;
} 


Those are the current functions, but it appears after a recent update that the current code does not functions correctly. I am not sure why, but I will be taking a look at at soon.

Oh you are very fast thanks a lot
So if see this right

new iLimit = GetConVarInt(g_hLowLimits[iTeam][iClass]); if (iLimit > 0 && iClassCount < iLimit) {

if the code is fixed for the current update it should work like i prefer!

doesn´t reachable at the moment?

It is now.... stupid rails app needed to be restarted. Good to go now.

[Leontar]

I am sorry to bring back an old thread but I always get the message :

[class_notifier.smx] [CLSNOTE] Class notifier is loaded and disabled.

in my logs and I never see the message. Any ideas why this happens ? Thanks.

[Extreme_One]

This seems to be broken.

Anyone around to update it?
