Problems with Weaponnames and UTSTatsDB

[SkullCollector]

hi there,

On my Server runs the Mutator UTComp Version 1.8b
If you enable the Enhanced Netcode Feature it will push new WeaponNames into the Logfiles :

It looks like this :
6103.99 K 3 DamTypeRocket 4 NewNet_SniperRifle
6103.99 S 3 1.00 frag
6103.99 T 0 1.00 tdm_frag
6105.16 I 8 UDamagePack
6106.63 P 3 multikill_2
6106.63 P 3 spree_1
6106.63 K 3 DamTypeRocket 5 NewNet_RocketLauncher


in other Logfiles without the Enhanced Netcodefeature i saw this :
104.03 PA 7 AssaultRifle2 8 0 0
104.03 PA 7 RocketLauncher8 5 0 0
104.03 PA 7 RocketLauncher15 2 0 0
104.03 PA 7 RocketLauncher18 5 0 0
104.03 PA 7 RocketLauncher27 5 0 0
104.03 PA 7 AssaultRifle32 11 0 0
104.03 PA 7 RocketLauncher38 2 0 0
104.03 PA 7 AssaultRifle36 5 0 0
104.03 PA 7 RocketLauncher45 2 0 0


as you can see here are the strange names from my database. All of this weapontypes are in the Database.

here you can see the accuracy from a match.

why these "Wapons" are counted as new Weapons ?

Because each weapon is being relabeled repeatedly by the mutator with custom names, so the stats see it as a new weapon. I'm not sure what the purpose is for that. If the stats were to simply strip numbers off the end of weapon names, that could potentially impact some that shouldn't be modified. Perhaps there's a way to prevent it from logging weapons like that? I'm also thinking maybe it's not that the mutator is creating new weapon names on purpose, but it's the way in which it is being generated by it.

What logger are you using?

hmm, i can't find those settings for that.
Have looking around, but nothing find.
Google is not a realy good help for that.

What logger are you using?

OL Stats 3.01 from your database here.
Was recommendet by UTStatsDB. Any other Version from that ?
Maybe it is UTCOmp that make this. I will test that.

I think i found the Problem.
after i deaktivate UTCOMp. Nothing changed.
So i reactivate the mut.
After i deactivate AntiTCC_2026r4 the strange names are gone.
Why these mut are making so strange things ?

I vaguely remember seeing weapon names do that sort of thing before due to a bug in how the objects were handled. See if the behavior occurs when only the AntiTCC mutator is enabled.

Ok, i will try it out tomorrow.
hmm, i remember that i have done that also. In the curious Weapon Names are in the Logs.
But i will recheck this.

Hi,
so i have checked this things with the AntiTCC.
The order of the mutators appears to be important.

First AntiTCC, then UTComp. Then the statistics will look correct. Without thousands of new Weaponnames.
Thats Realy strange i think..

But ok, a nice to know

Great that you figured out a solution!

Sure, but that is not the answer of the why questions....
