How to log

ajh60 · Post by **ajh60** » Sat Jan 07, 2006 1:25 am

ok so i was messing around trying to get a batch file to log my bzflag servers (private school tornument)because we are going to change the whole system around and i wanted to be able to click 1 icon and have it start a server and begin logging it anyways lets start:

First start up notepad (no not word not wordpad, notepad) now copy and paste the following

Code: Select all

@echo Now loading bzflag...
start "bzflag.bat" "bzflag.bat"
start "bzflag logging.bat" "bzflag logging.bat"

now you have to save it as a bat file call it start.bat and click the drop down list that says Text Documents (*.txt) and change it to All Files

now press the save button and make a new text document and copy and paste this

Code: Select all

@echo off

set BZADMINPROGRAM="C:\Program Files\BZFlag2.0.5b4\bzadmin.exe" 
set USERNAME="Logger"
set SERVER="localhost"
set LOGFILE="C:\path\to\the\logs\(filename).txt"

REM ***** Don't change anything below this line! ***** 

@echo on 

@%BZADMINPROGRAM% "%USERNAME%@%SERVER%" > %LOGFILE%

and save it as bzflag logging.bat using the same methode as above
we now have our script to log the out put of bzadmin player kills chat etc

now make a new document and copy /paste the following

Code: Select all

@echo off
set BZFSPROGRAM="C:\Program Files\BZFlag2.0.5b4\bzfs.exe"
set LOGFILE="C:\path\to\your\logs\(filename).txt"
set CONFIGFILE="C:\path\to\your.conf"

REM ***** Don't change anything below this line! *****

@echo on

%BZFSPROGRAM% -conf %CONFIGFILE% > %LOGFILE%

and save it as bzflag.bat that will log the output of bzfs (i reccomend using -dddd and -printscore in your config file for this to take affect)

now make shure all the files are in the same location and double click on start.bat and woulla a server just started and so did bzadmin

PS:
in the bzadmin window it will only display
Connecting to Logger@localhost:5154
this is perfectly normal and the reason is that it is printing all the info to the log file.

Wouldn't it be easier to run

bzfs ... &> logfile?

oh and btw it requires that you have a text document called flags.txt in the c drive and another called output it also assumes that you are running bzflag 2.0.5b4
PS dont be a desprate code deprived little kid and steal my work you are allowed to use it as long as you leave the all coding by alex hutton in there im fine with it.
PSS
here is the contents of the flag.txt file

Code: Select all

FLAG LIST

GOOD FLAGS

High Speed (V) 
Boosts top speed by 50%. 

Quick Turn (A) 
Boosts turn rate by 50%.

Oscillation Overthruster (OO) 
Let's the tank go through buildings. You cannot back up in or into a building, nor can you shoot while inside. 

Rapid Fire (F) 
Increases shot speed and decreases range and reload delay. 

Machine Gun (MG) 
Increases shot speed and dramatically decreases range and reload delay. 

Guided Missile (GM) 
Shots guide themselves when locked on. The missile can be retargeted at any time during its flight (with the right mouse button). This allows the player some control over the missile's steering. 

Laser (L) 
Shoots a laser, with effectively infinite speed and range. Just point and shoot. The binoculars are handy for lining up distant targets. The downside (you knew it was coming) is that the reload time is doubled. 

Ricochet (R) 
Shots reflect off walls. It is exceptionally easy to kill yourself with this flag. 

Super Bullet (SB) 
Shots can go through buildings (possibly destroying a tank with the oscillation overthruster flag) and can also destroy (phantom) zoned tanks. 

Stealth (ST) 
Tank becomes invisible on radar but is still visible out-the-window. 

Cloaking (CL) 
Tank becomes invisible out-the-window but is still visible on radar. 

Invisible Bullet (IB) 
Shots are invisible on radar (except your own). They are visible out-the-window. Sort of stealth for shots. 

Tiny (T) 
Tank becomes much smaller and harder to hit. 

Narrow (N) 
Tank becomes paper thin. It's very hard (but not impossible) to hit a narrow tank from the front or back. However, the tank is as long as usual so hitting it from the side has normal difficulty. 

Shield (SH) 
Getting shot while in possession of this flag simply drops the flag (instead of destroying the tank). Since the flag may not disappear you may want to wait around for it to fall to the ground so you can grab it again, but, be warned, the shield flag flies for an extra long time (longer than the normal reload time). 

Steamroller (SR) 
Tank can destroy other tanks by driving over them (but you must get quite close). 

Shock Wave (SW) 
Tank doesn't fire shells. Instead it sends out a shock wave in all directions. Any tank caught in the wave is destroyed (including tanks on or in buildings). 

Phantom Zone (PZ) 
Driving through a teleporter phantom zones the tank. A zoned tank cannot shoot, but can drive through buildings and cannot be destroyed except by a Super Bullet or a Shock Wave (or if the team's flag is captured). 

Genocide (G) 
Destroying any tank on a team destroys every player on that team. 

Jumping (JP) 
Allows the tank to jump. You cannot steer while in the air. 

Identify (ID) 
Displays the identity of the closest flag in the vicinity. 

BAD FLAGS:

Colorblindness (CB) 
Prevents tank from seeing any team information about other tanks. You have to be careful to avoid shooting teammates. 

Obesity (O) 
The tank becomes very large and easy to hit. It's so big that it can't fit through teleporters. 

Left Turn Only (<-) 
Prevents the tank from turning right. 

Right Turn Only (->) 
Prevents the tank from turning left. 

Momentum (M) 
Gives the tank a lot of inertia. 

Blindness (B) 
Blanks the out-the-window view. The radar still works. It is effectively impossible to detect any tank with Stealth; shooting a Stealth with Blindness is the stuff legends are made of. 

Jamming (JM) 
Disables the radar but you can still see. 

Wide Angle (WA) 
Gives the tank a fish eye lens that's rather disorienting.

Really good batch file !
It is really great.

Could you try to start a seperate Window with the current action, that is going on ? I mean a seperate Instance of BZADMIN.

P.S.: But if you're in school, i would take the log files to an usb stick or sth. like that...

in skool we have made our own computer we use it to run a bzflag server and it serves everyone 'coz they have no idea on how to make a server and most of them dont eaven know what LAN means i originally made it so it started a new window but it just flashes up for about .1 of a second and closes so no real point and also does any 1 know how to connect to a bzflag game directly from a bat file like completly bypass bzadmin?

The Knights Who Say Ni · Tue Jan 10, 2006 9:38 pm

also i was trying the give flag thing and it des it but it then asks me if i want to end the game which is the next item on the list so its try9ng to do both
So it looks like we need another version if you carrying it on... hope you are

aslo in the options things y/n if you put any thing else then it assumes you mean yes should it not assume you meen no?

ow and also also when if first starts up it pings the server well if it cant ping thre server should it not let you connect untill it can?

ajh60 · Post by **ajh60** » Thu Jan 12, 2006 8:46 am

hmm good idea about the server ping heres the fixed version not shure how to go about that if any1 knows then i whould appreciate it. to save 56kers i will start to attach the batchfile for you
heres 0.1.4
updates:
fixed y/n bug
fixed group bug (i think)
Changed name to BZCC (BZ Control center)

The Knights Who Say Ni!:
fixed the group bug, the first error (The system cannot find the file specified.) is coz it looks for C:\BZFlag_Logs\groups.txt and displays it if you want to change it just edit the batch file and do a find and replace.

The Knights Who Say Ni · Fri Jan 13, 2006 6:59 pm
