L4D Stats Options

[MonkeyFiend]

On the front page is a new link (in the quicklinks section) for Player Stats

The new stats system allow stats tracking on our L4D servers, including

> Kills/Deaths, accuracy, favourite maps/weapons/players etc.,
> Forum signature with stats data
> A ranking system (based on kills)
> An awards system
> Server chat and command logging
> Clan performance data
> Server population and trends

It's still in development, so expect lots of bugs. There's also a goodle maps page which shows where in teh world players are connecting from - at the moment the server hosts are reviewing some custom perl that needs to be installed to the server to make this work.

> L4D heatmaps: technically this works, but is disabled. A heatmap shows where players kill/die, identifying area's where they take damage or are ambushed. It's disabled for the time being because generating these images is throttling our webserver

An example:



Above you can see the routes where people kill stuff, fairly obvious I guess

thx.

Nerd Note: The stats pages are ripped of an older free version of HLStatX,(Half Life stats system) a now premium (£6 per month) web engine. Because a lot has been rewritten to cope with L4D, there will be bugs
