Autohost integration - ladder,demos,your tips and help

Post by Licho »

Hi, it looks I'm going to have some time this week to continue work on springie.

I'm looking for any tips or offers for integration with other system, this is what could be interesting.

1) - automated submission to 1on1 or some future ladders. Springie would be set to "ranked" mode and then auto upload results to some ladder system. (Operation on ladder needs some rollback in case someone hacks and sends false results). Possibly even multihost (springie would open new 1v1 game on command request)

2) - automated submission of demos. Using some command springie would upload interesting demo to demo database

3) - using 1on1 ladder to determine skill level of players for better team balancing.

4) - general stats gathering - uploading results to some centralized database and stats viewing system. Stats could be stuff like favourite maps, time spent in game, how much people chat, who drops most often or even who wins greater % of games.

I would like to do 4) anyway, I originally intended it just for springie itself, but sending results to some central server seems better idea now.
If there is anyone willing to host or develop such stats site, please contact me.

Nah, not yet ;-) I'm just enjoying few relatively relaxed days after some crunch work weekends...

I always like to look at gamestatics, so go ahead.
If you have very much free time, something like BWchart would be nice.

Maybe also winning % for startpositions and sides (arm,core,gd,urc) on certain maps.

Information, information, information!

Every last bit of data associated with a game that Springie can possibly extract can and should be uploaded to a central DB somewhere. If such information could then be data dumped every night (to minimize SQL server overload), then we could (at least I know I could) hack up some PHP/Excel scripts/macros to put all the data it to an interesting format and extract information from it. I've been pestering SJ to allow total data dumps of every Every Goddamn Thing In Spring for ages, and this looks like it may finally present an opportunity to inch closer to that goal.
