Battlegrounds Queue

[shennetsind]

• [x] Enable party/guild support (existent but disabled) and add the splitting algorithm, as Shikazu drafted ( staff link; http://hercules.ws/board/topic/1192-bg-queue-splitting-teams/ )
• [ ] in battlegrounds.c bg_canqueue gdelay_var and arena->delay_var checks are checking against time() instead of time()+proper_setting
• [x] script->hq[arena->queue_id].items is apparently not being cleared (after one bg takes place users get their position as if the previous queue was still in place), even though it is thrown in queue delete (might be a queue problem instead of the bg)
• [x] the feature should save your position when you're warped into the bg and warp you back when it ends ( no support for this is currently present )
• [x] when you're in a queue the client has a window displaying your position and a 'leave' button (beside the windows close button), this button is currently doing nothing while it should get you out of the queue.

Fixed 3 thru 5 on the reference above.

[shennetsind]

• [ ] Convert the Tierra Arena
• [ ] Convert the KVM Arena
• [ ] Consider the usage of instance variables in the arenas, so that the queue doesn't have to stop or wait longer for a match to end (as soon as a match is set to start other players can start queueing for the next)
• [ ] maximum_afk_seconds setting is not being used, fix.
• [ ] would be nice to know/figure what officials do when the disparity on team sizes is considerable e.g. >= 3 (does it wait longer? does it cancel the match?)

[shennetsind]

• [ ] ensure all team (party/guild) members are thrown in can_queue prior to accepting, to ensure all level/class requirements are meet (Thanks to ossi0110)
• [ ] check the conditions for ending the game when either team leaves/relogs, games not always ending (Thanks to ossi0110)

We have converted Tierra Valley and KvM arenas to use battlegrounds queue system using Hercules example script of Flavius. If you don't mind, we would like to share it with community.

Of course, you can share @AtlantisRO

Sorry for the late. Here is the scripts:

flavius.txt tierra.txt

This scripts are a little bit different from standard. We applied this changes:

• The way we manage the teams is making them be equals in players. In example, if a guild with 20 persons sends registration, they can start the arena, but all the guild will be splitted in two teams of 10 players each, even when they applied registration via guild, the same applies for party registration. However, it will always try to avoid the splitting of party or guild applications.
• Flavius and Tierra Gorge has a time limit to get the medals from the vintenars ncps, similar as kvm script and make some changes reordering the scripts.
• KvM works in the opposite way. Instead of count the killed players it counts the remaining players in arena, to make it easy to know how much players each team should kill, as an addaptation for queue variable teams.
• KvM also has an another modification to manage the player killed event, since we don't know if queueopt supports two options as waitingroom2bg does.

By the way,I just upgraded emulator to latest version and have troubles with [bg_match_over] command not warping players to their save points after ending the match.

We hope this scripts can help, if you consider it is ok to merge them with npc\custom\bgqueue folder, please tell me to send the pull request :) Also, if their is any problem with scripts, please tell me to fix it.

The KvM scripts sended in last post have customized the reward giving an item instead of giving kvm_points, here it is with the kvm_points reward corrected:

kvm01.txt kvm02.txt kvm03.txt

However, @dastgir , this scripts (flavius, tierra and kvm) has been partially customized from the standard scripts, we will send a non-customized version soon.
