Questions

How and where can I get help if I need it ?

First make sure you have read the documentation on our forum.

How are players tracked? Or, why is my name listed more than once ?

Players are tracked by nickname. All statistics for any player using a particular name will be grouped under that name. It is not possible for a name to be listed more than once for each game.

How is the "points" rating calculated ?

A new player has 1000 points. Every time you make a kill, you gain a certain amount of points depending on a) the victim's points rating, and b) the weapon you used. If you kill someone with a higher points rating than you, then you gain more points than if you kill someone with a lower points rating than you. Therefore, killing newbies will not get you as far as killing the #1 player. And if you kill someone with your knife, you gain more points than if you kill them with a rifle, for example.

When you are killed, you lose a certain amount of points, which again depends on the points rating of your killer and the weapon they used (you don't lose as many points for being killed by the #1 player with a rifle than you do for being killed by a low ranked player with a knife). This makes moving up the rankings easier, but makes staying in the top spots harder.

Specifically, the equations are:

Killer Points = Killer Points + (Victim Points / Killer Points)
                 × Weapon Modifier × 5
Victim Points = Victim Points - (Victim Points / Killer Points)
                 × Weapon Modifier × 5

Plus, the following point bonuses are available for completing objectives in some games:

Note The player who triggers an action may receive both the player reward and the team reward.

What are all the weapon points modifiers ?

Weapon points modifiers are used to determine how many points you should gain or lose when you make a kill or are killed by another player. Higher modifiers indicate that more points will be gained when killing with that weapon (and similarly, more points will be lost when being killed by that weapon). Modifiers generally range from 0.00 to 2.00.

How can I set my profile data ?

Player profile options can be configured by saying the appropriate SET command while you are playing on a participating game server. To say commands, push your chat key and type the command text.

Syntax: say /set option value.

Acceptable "options" are:

• realname
  Sets your Real Name as shown in your profile.
  Example:    /hls_set realname Joe Bloggs
• email
  Sets your E-mail Address as shown in your profile.
  Example:    /hls_set email joe@hotmail.com
• homepage
  Sets your Home Page as shown in your profile.
  Example:    /hls_set homepage http://www.geocities.com/joe/
• icq
  Sets your ICQ Number as shown in your profile.
  Example:    /hls_set icq 123456789
• myspace
  Sets your myspace page as shown in your profile.
  Example:    /hls_set myspace http://myspace.com/name
• facebook
  Sets your facebook page as shown in your profile.
  Example:    /hls_set facebook http://facebook/name
• jabber
  Sets your jabber ID as shown in your profile.
  Example:    /hls_set jabber ID
• steamprofile
  Sets your steamprofile URL as shown in your profile.
  Example:    /hls_set steamprofile URL

The server will respond with "SET command successful." If you get no response, it probably means you typed the command incorrectly.

Note These are not standard Half-Life console commands. If you type them in the console, Half-Life will give you an error.

My rank is embarrassing. How can I opt out?

Say /hls_hideranking while playing on a participating game server. This will toggle you between being visible on the Player Rankings and being invisible.

Note You will still be tracked and you can still view your Player Details page. Use the Search page to find yourself.

What are active players etc. ?

At the players overview you have multiple options to select which players are show and which not.
The default is to show only active and non BOT players. Which means a player is active if you use the player-activity.pl script and define the timeFrame in which a player is still active.
Everytime a player does something a flag is set to 1 and a timestamp is set. Then the player-activity.pl checks if the player has a activity within the given timeFrame. If not the player is set to in-active.
BOTs are recored if the IGNOREBOTS option is set to 0. This enables a additional option which displays those too. Otherwise no BOT is recorded or even shown.
