Hello

We are using the rotation manager and I am having a small problem with it.Sometimes the it runs the same map twice with a different gametype,Sometimes when we come in the game server for the 1st time of the day it stays stuck on the same map and gametype until I restart the B3 bot.
When I installed the plugin I put the rotationmanager.py in the extplugins folder and the rotationmanager.xml in the extplugins/conf folder.There are two other files that came in the download a warning file and a ignore file I did not upload these. 
I have posted our .xml   Please let me know what I am doing wrong.

Thank you all for developing such a great product.

Different Game (COD7) - same problem here!

[82ndAB.Bravo17]

Can you post your b3 log? (Remove passwords first)

[82ndAB.Bravo17]

I think that this is your problem:

Your small rotation only has one game type, and

Code:

    NOTE: If you set this bigger or equal than your correspondent rotation's amount 
   of gametypes, the rotation will always stop growing after first <this value> maps. 
   --> 
    <set name="gthistory_small">2</set> 

You need to add another game type or make this value 0.

Hopefully that will cure it.

Thank you for your replies and sorry it took so long for me to respond.
I have changed my small rotation to 4 gametypes and have uploaded my log.
Thank you all for the wonderful work on the BigBrother project.

Going to breath new life into this thread.  I have the same issue as above.  I posted last night in the CoD7 forum (could a mod delete it or lock it please?) the following:

This may or may not be the right forum for this question, so please forgive me and move if need be.

I finally have B3 working for CoD7 close to 100%.  We're still working through some issues, but what seems to be most troubling to me is rotationmanager.  Don't get me wrong, it's a sweet plugin, but I don't think it's doing 100% of what it's supposed to.

What IS working is the change from one rotation to the next.  At 7 players we switch from the small rotation (all maps on TDM and DEM) to the medium one (all maps except firing range and nuke town, DEM, DOM and S&D).  The change to the large rotation also seems to work pretty well.  Also the gametypes seem to randomize pretty well as far as I've noticed.

But what ISN'T working, or at least not the way I want it to, is the randomness of the maps.  Seems like we play a lot of the same maps every night.

Here's my xml for rotationmanager:

Code:

<configuration plugin="rotationmanager">
<settings name="settings">
<!--
    Three rotations have two switchingpoints.
    The first rotationswitch will be when server reaches the next number of players:
    -->
<set name="switchcount1">8</set>
<!--
    Three rotations have two switchingpoints. Set to more than your server slot number to disable.
    The second rotationswitch will be when server reaches the next number of players:
    -->
<set name="switchcount2">13</set>
    <!--
    Do you want the server to react fast to your playercount or would you like to
    reduce the number of rotationswitches? The hysteresis will make your switchcounts
    somewhat flexible. Setting it to 0 will make the plugin react at once when a
    switchpoint is passed.
    -->
    <set name="hysteresis">0</set>
<!--
    Do you want the plugin to build a random rotation when switching? This is good when
    we need to switch a lot! I suggest you leave this set to true. (Options: true/false)
    -->
    <set name="randomizerotation">true</set>
<!--
    The next line makes the new rotation effective immediately (on next map). Does NOT
perform a map change.
    NOTE: If you dont use randomizerotation this could lead to playing the same maps
    over and over again! (Options: true/false)
    -->
    <set name="immediate">true</set>
    <!--
    What gameversion is running? CoD1 or CoD:UO = 1 / CoD2 = 2 / CoD4 = 4 / CoD5 = 5 /
                                         CoD MW2 = 6 / CoD BO Ranked = 7
    -->
    <set name="version">7</set>
<!--
    I think its fair if we wait for the slower maploaders. This option will fast_restart
    the next map after the set delay (seconds) so slower players have equal chances.
    Setting it to 0 will disable the function. Useless for Black Ops.
    -->
    <set name="mapdelay">0</set>
</settings>

<settings name="histories">
<!--
How many maps should we store as a maphistory, so they don't get stored in the
rotation too close to eachother. If for example set to 4, at least 4 other maps
    will be put in rotation before a map can be repeated. This goes for randomized
    rotations only! set to 0 to disable this.

Same as maphistory, but is applied to gametypes for every rotation size.

    <settings name="cod7">

        <!-- Game mode: 0 for softcore, 1 for hardcore, 2 for barebones -->
        <set name="game_mode">1</set>
    </settings>

<!--
Next section is the setting of maprotations. You can supply several maps for several gametypes
Don't use a gametype twice in the same rotation though, it will not work as planned!
You can however use a map more than once in a gametype if you would like to play it more often.
If you left randomizerotation to true the plugin will create a random rotation from all gametypes/maps
provided and it will be a proper and smart maprotation.

As you can see, I keep a pretty high number for the history since most people aren't on long enough to see a full rotation anyway.

Any ideas?  Am I misinterpreting something somewhere?

Freelander suggested something that makes sense; when switching from one rotation to the next the plugin isn't paying attention to the history from the previous rotation.  If that's true, is there any way to at least use the same history regardless of which rotation is being used (small, med, large)?

I don't know how to code Python, otherwise I'd probably be figuring something out myself.  If someone could help with this, I'd greatly appreciate it.
