[BUG] [DOCS] Clarification for the ping fields #871

Open DarkIntaqt opened 8 months ago

DarkIntaqt commented 8 months ago

All the ping fields are still undocumented (see #754) and I need some clarification on some, as the names itself are not self explanatory at all and even after testing in game and comparing the API response to the actual ping uses in games, there are some inconsistencies.

  1. basicPings/genericPings: did not increase after pinging items, player, the map, an allied tower, an enemy structure (see #814)
  2. commandPings: might be combined out of "basic", "defend" and "target". Maybe it also includes item/spell/resource pings?
  3. dangerPings: Thought this was the common retreat ping (red), however the value didn't increase. (In replay data danger_pings are also 0, retreat_pings contains the correct value but is not present in the API) #870
  4. getBackPings: Assumably the yellow cautious ping.

What are these fields for and which pings do they resemble? It would be very kind if the corresponding team could hand out an answer on these, presumably on all ping fields.

Hey there, I'll see what I can find out and post back when I have info to share.

Hey there, the Match-v5 docs were updated with what we see as the current ping fields. Also left some responses around dangerPings in https://github.com/RiotGames/developer-relations/issues/870#issuecomment-2299046292 and basic/genericPings in https://github.com/RiotGames/developer-relations/issues/814#issuecomment-2299064532

  1. Basic/Generic pings: No longer mapped to data as far as we're aware
  2. commandPings: This was referred to by the team as the "blue generic ping", although they didn't provide details about what exactly is is referring to
  3. dangerPings: No longer mapped to data as far as we're aware
  4. getBackPings: I believe this is the replacement for dangerPings and it is the yellow cautious ping
