As pointed out by @QuiCM, TShock.Players is actually an array and not a
smarter collection, so length will return the total collection size and
not the active players. An earlier commit was added that gives TSPlayer
an ICollection<TSPlayer> that contains only active players. This is now
the basis of determining the number of active players on the server.
This renames some methods in the Utils class to better reflect what they
do or what they provide back. It should be clearer what these methods
are for now than before.
This is not a great method, but it's actually the only method in TShock
that interpolates the %map% and %players% variables and it used in at
least three places in the codebase. Since it's already so specialized,
it's not worth changing it to take an actual File object, in my humble
opinion.
This also clarifies what the method does and what makes it special, as
opposed to being fairly generic.
The ban system needs a full rewrite anyway, but this move removes
something from Utils, puts it closer to its operating point, simplifies
the method, and clarifies what it actually does.
This is a public method that only has two uses in TShock and both of
them are listing players to a player. A foreach isn't rocket science and
this method was originally created just because there was no good object
to iterate on (e.g., a TSPlayer array).
There are two occasions in the codebase when Utils.Reload is called and
we're competent enough that we can just call the event when the reload
happens. Unrelated note, but shouldn't this event be called prior to
reloading? I've kept it the same to preserve existing behavior, but I
think it should probably happen before the reload event takes place.
Either way, I think this is fine.
Arguably, this is one of the more controversial methods that's being
kept. Because it kicks and bans a target player, it's more useful than
removing it and requiring people to interface with the TShock Ban
Manager directly (not a good move for the future). Whether or not this
method sucks is up for debate, but right now I think it's totally fine
to keep it around in a different location.
Some anti-cheat calls were changed to "You have been Bounced." I don't
think we need to tell clients why they were disconnected so they can
tune their hacks better.
TShock used to call the StartInvasion method in Main with a type
and a size, but then in some update it stopped taking a size. So
you have to change a field to change the size, but the problem is
that the field is reset when StartInavsion is called. This means
that any effort to manually change the size would have failed due
to the fact that the field is reset at the end. The order has been
changed to account for this.
In addition, the start size is now set, so the game can report
progress correctly on the current invasion.
Thanks for checking this out, @bartico6. Fixes#1549.
Note: this method only returns 1 because the game won't allocate
more identity/index combo. Apparently, according to RL.
Frontend still doesn't work properly. In particular:
1. Need a way to list bans by account name.
2. Need a way to unban by account name.
3. Really need a way to change the IP on a ban lol.
Ban system still needs to be be rebuilt fully, but at least this
doesn't necessarily character ban someone if you were going for an IP
ban.
Fixes#1412
