    The random map change bug was something i was testing to fix the long map changes, but not a solution anyway, and has been disabled.


    The current issue is, the new mod has a lot more data to save after each round, and on a full server this can take around 30-35 seconds. Therefor when a round finishes, and points are distributed to players, it saves everything ( Upgrades, Player Stats, Accuracy Stats, Dailys, Achievements, TokenDB ( Skins and PP ) ) which, per player, takes about 2 seconds. Unfortunately, the map will not change until all these queries/updates are performed, so on a server with 12+ players, you will start to notice slow/temporary timeout map changes.


    I am working to get the queries compressed and run faster, and there should be a slight increase already in the server. But I am still working on it.

    ;)

    True, it should be more rewarding by working as a team, but it is an upgrade system, and you should be rewarded for your own performance too. The reason for the increase is just to make the mod more fun for all.


    However, it does bring up a very good idea of including objective and team oriented rewards and bonuses.

    There have been a few fixes applied since release which I will briefly note, however further changes/updates will be added here.


    Main Fixes/Additions since release include;
    > !gift - Token gifting re-added.
    > rare issue with end round points not giving all points stated ( this was only an issue for a few days however ) - there is a max 25000 point limit each round ( long story short, I don't trust sourcemod with floats & integers ).
    > Point Rate in %



    Changes - JX MOD 1.1.1 - 24/11/2014


    > Points earned from kills/damage has been increased by roughly 100+%
    >> As it has been a few weeks since release, I have had a good look at average points given each round, and the current points people are on. And it would seem it is slightly hard to get the lower levels in upgrades. Although this was by designed compared to fungrades ( low levels were a lot easier to achieve ) I balanced it out in this new upgrade system. But it would seem the point rate is a tad too low at the moment. Although achievements and daily's give a big chunk of points each time, I am making playing the game without these bonus points, also rewarding,so have fun levelling a lot easier now ;) The change will obviously boost players in having higher upgrades, however, it will also allow new players to level up a lot faster ( although achievements and daily's do a good job in providing this ).


    Changes - JX MOD 1.1.2 - 25/11/2014


    > Command - !ts3 - will connect the player to the sammys-zps.com Teamspeak with their in-game name!


    > Adverts - Added Teamspeak 3 advert + Gift Advert.


    > Lotto - Changed Lotto to allow numbers 1-25 ( from 1-30 )


    > Teamwork Plugin
    >> There is a new system, which will now reward or punish starting survivors with an increase/decrease in points based on their efforts during the round. There are a few teamwork point rewards and now a Point Bonus for those survivors winning a round. This is still in early development, and will be adding several more features to make players work more as a team. You will be printed at the end of each round your point rate, along with any bonuses and punishments that have been earned for each individual round.


    Changes - JX MOD 1.1.3 - 26/11/2014 - Effective from the 1st of December


    > Xmas Presents and Candy Canes!
    >> Like every year, an Xmas event is added to the servers. This year, with ideas from Mr.9, a Calendar/Present + Game Giveaway event will be added to the servers, the biggest event yet ;) Last year there were a few game giveaways, however this year, there will be daily rewards and a final 24th of December game giveaway! i will be listing the games very soon, however i am posting the changes early for people to understand and get prepared ! More Info can be found Here


    Changes - JX MOD 1.1.4 - 01/12/2014


    > Admin print for zombie leavers for total leaves per player.
    > !cane !candy !candycane - Command to view current canes + time played each day.
    > Spectator Damage Disabled ( incoming and outgoing ).
    > Bot kills, although still do not count for any stats/dailys, now grant a small amount of points per kill.

    Changes - JX MOD 1.1.5 - 05/12/2014


    > Target upgrades now have a back option!
    > Changes to Damage, Life Steal and Toughness


    Changes - JX MOD 1.1.6 - 19/12/2014 ( WIll be live sometime this evening )


    > 21 new Achievements ( More to follow very soon also )
    > Buysong will now print the song last bought with !Start
    > Minor Bug fixes for points for melee weapons
    > Small reduction on melee points.
    > Normal Point Rate Round Cap - 15000 from 25000. Achievements are now not affected from the point cap.


    Changes - JX MOD 1.1.7 - 19/12/2014


    > 1 new Achievement
    > Point cap fix which was applied last week to correct achievement/point gain ( people gaining slightly more than rewarded if they hit the point cap). I will also note here again, achievement points are not affected by the cap. so if you gain 15000 points from the mod + 10000 from achievements, you will gain 25000.
    > Zombie Leaver Update - I still need to hook timeouts, but if you leave twice within a couple of days, 30 min auto bans will be given out. You can find a log of all leavers on http://sammys-zps.com/banme/index.php?p=warn - The automatic ban will be active this evening.
    > !warn name 1 reason - This is a feature which i am still thinking of releasing as a permanent feature. It works with the zombie leavers warns ( A Leaver gets 2 warns auto ) the reason for this addition is to have a log of all people breaking rules but not receiving a ban at the time. so !warn Joux 1 "Chat/Mic Spamming" along with the standard !mute Joux and !gag Joux command that would be given for the specific offence. Also, if a person receives too many warnings, it will also autoban them for 30 minutes for too many warnings.
    > Alot of bug fixes and tweaks! ( over the last few weeks ).


    Changes - JX MOD 1.2.2 - 09/09/2015

    - Changed several queries to increase speed


    - Partially rewrote how Achievements are saved.


    - Added several ConVars which will allow us to easily enable events without the need to alter existing code.


    - Changing stuff which is currently a bit hackish when it comes to translations and colors

    - Added !pr or !pointrate which shows you the current point gain percentage.


    - Removed old code which is not longer used
    - Changed the way players are saved to decrease the amount of single queries to the mysql server.
    - !vip will now give an info that skins are automatically assigned once you unlock them.
    - Almost every chat message has been changed in code so they can be easily translated into other languages.
    - Several bug fixes

    - Medic questions a bit more randomized
    - Changed to a better way of checking when someone uses rtd or anweres a question in Quiz or Math game in chat.


    It actually looks less then it is due to most of it being an under the hood change and not directly visible to players.


    Any bugs or suggestions post them in the Bugtracker.




    Changes - JX MOD 1.2.3 - 25/09/2015


    - Zombie base health increased to 225 from 200
    - Zombie base damage increased to 30 from 25
    - Carrier base damage reduced to 30 from 35
    - Zombie health per level increased to 4 from 2
    - Zombie damage upgrade modifier reduced to 0.09 from 0.012
    - Zombie lifesteal per level increased to 2 from 1
    - Survivors health per level increased to 2 from 1
    - Survivors melee damage modifier reduced to 0.014 from 0.016
    - Added a armour regen delay. When you get hit there is a delay before armour regen starts to tick again


    Changes - JX MOD 1.2.4 - 25/09/2015


    - Added a new Zombie upgrade Mutation (JX MOD DOCUMENTATION)
    - Finally fixed the ammo regen speed issue. Each time you regen ammo you now receive appropriately weight and will slow down. So no more running with 30 Shotgun bullets at full speed
    - Fixed minor things.
    - Added a message to all players when someone gets mutated
    - Removed the attempt to balance speed due to ammo regen issues see above.
    - Updated Sourcemod to 1.7.3 (this time it works :rolleyes: )
    - Updated Metamod to 1.10.6


    Changes - JX MOD 1.2.5 - 04/12/2015


    - Brand new point system. This is a ( part 1 ) follow up from the thread regarding the current JXMOD. The new system is now a shared point system, which, those who camp and get kills for points will no longer singularly benefit and gain solo points. Points gained from Kills and Deaths are now shared, you will still gain your own points from events, such as RTD, however, points gained from killing and playing each round will be split between your own team. This method of point sharing now gives new players in particular a much better chance of upgrading and not leaving as they find it hard to gain points alone. It also targets players who enjoy the objectives of a map, rather than trying to get as many kills as possible, everyone will now be rewarded. Along with this change, you will notice that you will receive a larger amount of points.


    Changes - JX MOD 1.2.6 - 14/01/2016


    - Fixed the "Need Ammo" message shown in chat (this is just a workaround until it will be fixed in ZPS itself)
    - Updated RTD Butter to use a direct function call to drop the weapon instead of using a hackish way.
    - Fixed an issue with Points being added to the Console (aka world).


    Changes - JX MOD 1.2.8- 20/06/2016


    - Added !inventory for admins which shows the current inventory of a survivor
    - Changed to a better way of ammo regen.
    - Added primary weapon limitation. You can have 1 primary weapon. M4, AK47, MP5, Remmy, Super Shorty, Winchester and Revolver are considered as primary weapon.

    Well thanks for the time and effort you have put into the community not only as an active member but as an admin, i hope everything works out for you.


    I am happy to hear you have had a good time with the community for your time here, it is good to hear that from members / players :)


    Good luck with everything :)

    Point Rate System


    This mod has a new feature to balance Human and Zombie 'Spammers' This is to allow players to enjoy both roles knowing they will be earning points based on their game play preference. Points in JX MOD is split into Zombie and Human points. By Wanting zombie as your main role preference, you will, over time, earn less zombie points at the end of each round. Each user has their own Point Rate which does not reset when you leave one of the servers. The idea behind this is to force players to equally want to play on both teams, and prevent Zombie Spammers from earning Zombie Points if the role is 'Spammed' . Please also refer to the Sammys-ZPS Server Rules on Zombie Spamming, you can also review them ingame with !Rules.



    JX Statistics / Achievements / Challenges


    The new mod now comes with Full Player Statistics which can be viewed @ http://sammys-zps.com/jx (currently a WIP ) You can search your STEAMID on the right hand side of the page.

Kills, Shots Fired, Shots Hit, Shots Missed and Weapon Accuracy ( Guns Only ). You will also be ranked against other players based on your weapon statistics and overall performance as a Survivor and Zombie. You will have 4 Ranks available. Upgrade Rank, Survivor Skill Rank, Zombie Skill Rank and a Global Skill Rank. To Become Ranked, You require 1 hour of gameplay, 100 survivor kills and 25 Zombie Kills. Once the requirements have been met, you can type !rank in chat to view your current rank standings. The mod now also comes with player Achievements. There are currently 31 Achievements to Obtain and find! Achievements are being kept secret for the time being. You will earn 5000 Points for Each Achievement Found and Unlocked!. You can view your current achievements on the web interface and by typing !Ribbons or !Achievements in game.


    You will also have Daily Challenges to obtain. Each day you will have a goal for 7 different challenges, These include, Survivor Frags, Zombie Frags, Survivor Killing Spree, Headshots, Damage, Rounds Won as a survivor and Melee Kills. Each time a Daily Challenge is complete you will be rewarded with Points. Also, each time a daily challenge is completed, you will increase your level in that challenge. Each level obtained will increase how tough a daily challenge will be. For Instance. Level 1 Survivor Kills is 175 Kills in a day, a Level 2 ranked Survivor Kills will become 250.

    Yep thanks all who turned up ;) Got a few bugs to fix and some changes to make. It is good to put the mod into a live environment like that to see what new players ask for the most and what needs to be explained without the need for members to answer each time too. But i have a few things to change about, and a lot of stuff to add still ;)


    If you have not already had a look, you can check your stats here http://sammys-zps.com/jx


    You will notice zombie kills were not registered, which you can ignore as a 'bug'. Any other feedback will be greatly appreciated here ███ JX-Mod BUG Megathread ███


    Thanks all ! :)

    I will be opening the Test server from 2:00 PM Roughly Sunday for all Sammys-ZPS Regulars and Members to test out a upcoming Statistics and Upgrade mod. The Mod itself is a huge update and feature update compared to both the current RPGMOD and Fungrades script. The script itself has Upgrades from both scripts and has been balanced which various new systems to allow new players to have fun with regular and high upgraded players. The Mod not only includes the well known Upgrade play-style system, it also has full statistics for All weapons, It records All Kills / Deaths, Gun shots, hits, kills, accuracy, It includes personal daily challenges, and a brand new Achievement system for ZPS!


    You will be able to track your Upgrades, Stats, Daily Challenges and Achievements with the following link http://sammys-zps.com/jx/


    There is a lot more the mod will have to offer, but requires a live player environment to correct any current bugs and issues.
