Scripts:EventsPy

What It Does

• Prints connections, disconnections, and chat messages to the server console.

Installation

1. Browse to admin/standard_admin in your bf2 server directory
2. Edit __init__.py so it looks something like the code snippet below.
3. Save the below code to admin/standard_admin/events.py.
4. Run your server. If "events.py loaded" comes up in your server console it should work from there.

Code

__init__.py

import autobalance
import tk_punish
import events

autobalance.init()
tk_punish.init()
events.init()

events.py

# script for viewing interesting events in the server console
# -- by dackz (http://dackz.net/)

import bf2
import host
from bf2 import g_debug

def init():
    if g_debug: print 'initialising events script'

    host.registerHandler('PlayerConnect', onPlayerConnect, 1)
    host.registerHandler('PlayerDisconnect', onPlayerDisconnect, 1)
    host.registerHandler('ChatMessage', onChatMessage, 1)

    host.rcon_invoke('echo "events.py loaded"')

def onPlayerConnect(player):
    host.rcon_invoke('echo "Connected: %s"' % (player.getName()))

def onPlayerDisconnect(player):
    host.rcon_invoke('echo "Disconnected: %s"' % (player.getName()))

def onChatMessage(player_id, text, channel, flags):
    player = bf2.playerManager.getPlayerByIndex(player_id)

    host.rcon_invoke('echo "<%s>%s: %s"' % (channel, player.getName(), text))

Notes

The chat text might look a little weird as the script doesn't clean it up at all. You might see things like HUD_TEXT_CHAT_TEAM, *§DEAD§*, et cetera. Perhaps that will be fixed in the future.
