Auto Balance
« on: June 27, 2005, 07:06:26 AM »
Hi, your server would be the best in the world for me (good pings, all english speakers) But for one thing, why, oh why isnt auto balance on??
 
  As soon as one team gets a fair wins in a rowm, it suddenly goes  38/26 or worse, and its all over from there, and of course, everyone plays the "i am deaf" game even though you was just speaking to the other team untill you asked them to even up.

I have to go back to the official EA (france) servers untill something is sorted, because on a ranked server,  perhaps 5% of the people will actually swop teams in them circumstances.  I have emailed EA with this most obvious thing that they left out (FORCE auto balance on rnaked servers) and hopefully it will get added in a future patch if enough people complain.

Of course its the same on EVERY other ranked (64 player) server i have been on that isnt auto balanced, so i'm sure its only a matter of time.


P.s are u renting servers in the future?? for less then the $5 pSpM as i get awesome pings here.

If there is a TiG guy on then shout and they'll get an admin to sort it.  We'd rather let you gamers sort out the sides yourself rather then turn on autobalance.  Its a nightmare when decent game play is going on.

The problem with autobalance that I've seen is that it splits up squads. I'd prefer that it moved people that weren't already in a squad.

In case you ever do believe in it again....

http://www.shackbattles.com/wiki/index.php/BF2:Squadleaders_getting_teambalanced



Code: [Select]
In admin/standard_admin/autobalance.py, edit this area:

def onPlayerDeath(p, vehicle):
  if not bf2.serverSettings.getAutoBalanceTeam(): return None
Add:   if p.isCommander(): return None
Add:   if p.isSquadLeader(): return None
Add:   if p.getSquadId() > 0: return None

This should ignore players who are a) Are commanders b) are squad leaders c) are squad members. Only unassigned 'lone wolf' players are balanced. The p.isSquadLeader() is probably redudndant.

I'm usually against autobalance but I think in this case something should be done.  Just got onto the public 64 player server for the first time to find teams constinually unbalanced 3:2 or worse.  The kind of 'tards that switch teams when their side are losing have infested the server and are refusing to balance the teams when asked.

Yep I had to kick a few today for that same reason.  Better to stick to the 32 player.

Fyi Autobalance also moves squad leaders and commanders, meant to only move Lone Wolfs but shockingly doesnt.

The script that you changed isn't working?

It's supposed to as it came from the EAGames site.
