EVE Technology Lab

Hello,

I am positive I followed the installation steps precisely and I did make adjustments manually on the Force Update parts. However, I have a mysterious issue. This screenshot is where I have stopped. http://eve-it.org/screenshot/module_3.png

For me, there are no EVE API modules in that dropdown menu. What did I miss, Cyerus? Thank you in advance. ~ Scozz

Hey Cyerus,

First off I'd like to say thanks for a great mod, the effort you put into coding and then supporting your mod is commendable.

Second, I've been having an issue with your fitting not recognizing some modules.

Example:

Is this an EVE image server issue? Or did something corrupt along the way.

Third, I have to format the fitting into Low - Medium - High - Rigs for it to display correctly. If I take it directly from a fitting tool like Pyfa in EFT format it is in High - Medium - Low - Rigs and the modules do not display in the correct slots. Is this Working as Intended? Or again did a configuration file not make it somewhere.

Thanks again, hoping to hear back from you.

It seems you haven't uploaded all of the files from the upload directory yet.




2.
The TeamSpeak UID doesn't save, because it has encountered a problem. This could be that the TeamSpeak username/password combination doesn't work, doesn't have enough permissions, or perhaps the port isn't opened.
Manually updating it in the database won't work, since then the script isn't triggered.
Triple check your TeamSpeak information again, including permissions on the admin account you are using.

3.
I think the permission is called ContactList (for both personal and corp keys).




Quite simple; That fitting is outdated.
Could either be because of outdated EFT / Pyfa, or perhaps copy/pasting a very old fitting from battleclinic.

Anyways, the Invulnerability Field II is renamed to Adaptive Invulnerability Field II and the rigs are now called Medium Core Defense Field Extender I (notice the change from c to s) just to name a few.

I'm having problems with people trying to register, they are having the error 'The value you entered is too short' when a new member is trying to submit an application.

I've checked to make sure the API details are correct.

Any ideas?

Now resolved!

I have figured out what I've done wrong, when updating I forgot to copy the new files to my personal style files.

There is no simple method of automaticly providing corporation / alliance tickers in front of people's usernames. However, you could add ranks to forum groups, to show each user to which entity they belong to. Only limitation is that it only shows the ticker of the user's default group.

Currently there is no easy way to determ access by corporation / alliance roles.
I might add a way for corporation roles in the future, but it's a lot of work to implement so i really need ot know whether or not user's are going to use it.

On the Standings page you should use a Corporation key, Communications -> ContactList to be precise (accessMask 16). For character-based standings the standings character you have selected should have the Communications -> ContactList enabled aswell.

The cronjob isn't enabled / activated by default, since it's not a real cronjob script. You have to manually create the cronjob by loading the page like any client would, example wget http://path-to.com/forum/eveapi_cron.php
When creating the cronjob you can select when the script is suppose to run.

All groups that are manually set to a character which is not known on the forum, are not removed when the cronjob script works it's magic.

When a character leaves an entity while having a special group, the special groups and admin groups will remain on that character's TeamSpeak while the other groups are removed.

Cyerus,

Love the mod so far. I was wondering if anyone would know how I would work the following into my install?

I have setup for phpbb3/ts3 and this is for my alliance. Each corp has its own forum and ts3 groups to give permissions, however when it comes to my corp I am trying to add additional forum groups to allow different levels of access to other categories/forums on the phpbb install. I already gather I will have to add them manually but I was wondering how should I go about doing this? Will the api system take those roles away? Do I have to make them a special group? If I do make these special groups will they be removed once they don't have blue status? Should I not enter them as special groups?

I'm also wondering, if someone is no longer a member of the corp/alliance, will the api system remove all roles? Delete their account? Can this be setup? Etc. Possibly set neut, -5, and -10 as a special banned group with no access to anything?

Does anyone have any ideas?

Why do you want multiple groups if you can do the same with just one group?
Or perhaps I'm reading it wrong, and you want to have special permissions for only a few people inside your corporation rather than all of them; This has to be done using the Special Groups.

If your forum is set up to disallow Non-Member registration, users that do not match any entity will get disabled. This means that their groups are reset to Registered Users (-default group) and their account is disabled.
So if a corpmate leaves for another corp which should not have permissions, his/her account will get disabled.

If your forum is set up to allow Non-Member registration, users that do not match any entity will remain active and have their groups removed, except for the groups which are set as Special.
So, if I would have 3 groups (Corp, Alliance, Special) and I would leave my alliance, I would lose the Corp and Alliance groups, but keep the Special group. It's up to the forum moderator/admin to manually remove such groups, which they have manually set in the first place.

Another exception is incorrect API. I think that when an user has an expired or 'removed' API key, the cronjob automaticly disables that account and removing all groups (although not 100% sure about that one).

To answer your last question; Why would you want to delete such accounts, when disabling them can be enough? Also, in the Admin Control Panel of phpBB you can remove inactive accounts between certain dates. So for instance you want to remove all inactive accounts from whenever to 6 months ago, you can..




I might have understood the first question wrong, so let me try to explain it to the best of my abilities.
In order to achieve what you want, you need to do the following;

• Add the Corporation as an entity.
• Add the Alliance as an entity.

Here are three pointers on why the group does not show up on the cronjob log;

1. There is no group selected for the alliance entity.
2. The alliance group is the same one as the corporation one (it filters out duplicate groups, since it's pointless to add an user to the same group multiple times).
3. User is already part of the alliance group (the cronjob log only shows changes to groups and whether or not it recognizes set entities)

Hope this helps.

So what exactly are special groups for? If you tick immune what does this do?

Are you saying if I put forum groups manually they will stick to that account unless the account comes up revoked by the api key or until I remove them?

Should I add the moderator groups as special groups?

How did you resolve this? I am having the same issue, As you can see on my forum http://northernstrike.org/forum/ucp.php?mode=register when you go to register, there is no tab for entering the API, even though it is checking for it. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

EDIT: I was able to solve this by changing to the default theme, i guess other themes dont have the correct settings to display the api check in the registration.

New Question: Some members are having issues registering, even when using their exact ingame name as the forum name, and entering their limited CHARACTER API. What are we doing wrong?

Is it possible to have styles with this mod? I fixed the problem by changing a style I had found to the default one, that way users can register. Still having problems with the API, some users are getting Character and API settings do not match >> (namehere).

Iv gone over with the guy trying to register, double and triple check everything is set correctly, limited API, type character, and the character on the account which is in the corp. Still getting the error message however. Is there a way to add him vie admin in the backend?
