Hello, i wonder if it's possible to make a plugin that will track the time that players stay in the server (in a team, not in spec) and it will display a ranking with the players that played most time in the server.

I've checked all the plugins here and no one of them have that, maybe i missed one?

Hope someone can help me, thanks

Hypothetically if such a plugin were to be coded would it make use of a database? What features would people want in such a plugin?

Hello

First of all thanks alot for your reply, i'm glad that someone posted here wanting to know more about this petition. and about what you said in your reply. I personally don't need a database since i don't use MySQL, i only want to track peoples time that play in my server so later i can do events like "giving X item to the person that played most" something like this plugin but without the killing/death points, for example in SoDStats if you type "statsme" you actually can see the time played in that server, would be perfect to have the same rank system but with time played.

Thanks and i hope someone can help me since this will help alot when making some events to atract people to your server!

That would be interesting! but as i mention before, i don't use MySQL and sadly i don't count with a webpage, so i would like to keep it in-game, just like any other Rank system (like SoDStats)

Thanks for your reply!

I think a database would be the way to go, since you want to track a potentially large number of players a database would both allow you to store large numbers and efficiently run queries on the data. For instance calculating the top 10 players without a database could be quite hard as you would have to iterate over a list using something like a heap. With a database you would simply make a query ordered by biggest first with a limit of 10 which is quite efficient.

Sourcemod does have support for SQLite which is a database that is contained within sourcemod.

Oh, i thought that "Database" automatically ment MySQL = Website, and now i remember that we also had SQLite (thanks for reminding me), so it could be done?

Thanks!
