Joining Queue

[grizzled storm]

This plugin allows players to join a full server and wait in a queue until a slot becomes available.

Are there any side effects from this on a server?
E.g. unauthenticated players showing up in the player list?

[grizzled storm]

nope.

the player will not be "Ready". And the player will be added to the Collection of the Player List after the authentication.

[copper raptor]

Baller

Very cool

[unique schooner]

Does the plugin work with reserved slot players?

I mean

They can join even the server is full

[grizzled storm]

not yet. but i will add this next update. (tomorrow)

[unique schooner]

Ah okay then I will wait 😄

[unique schooner]

Also could you please add a new config option where I can set which role or who can skip the queue so they will be first

[grizzled storm]

you mean group? yeah ofc

[unique schooner]

Yeah 😅

Sorry it's late here

[grizzled storm]

yeah 0:36 for me

[unique schooner]

For me too xd

[stable heart]

Idk if its entirely possible, but would it be possible to add a placeholder for the server name? like %playersInQueue% ?

[grizzled storm]

yeah sure

[stable heart]

awesome

[grizzled storm]

Update v1.1

Added {servername} placeholder.
Added group priority changeable via config.
Added reserved slots check.

https://github.com/reversum/QueueSystem/releases/tag/LabAPI-Pluginv1.1

@unique schooner all ur wishes are now in the plugin.

[stable heart]

i assume no but was mine implemented?

believe i found a bug

only one player can be in queue because it tries to assign the same player id

and the game shits itself

[2025-07-30 01:50:10.035 +00:00] Player 7...@steam preauthenticated from endpoint x.x.x.x:63133.

[grizzled storm]

Will Take a look

[unique schooner]

Thank you so much!

[copper raptor]

This is a base-game issue with LabAPI @grizzled storm

No need to spend your time diagnosing it

[stable heart]

soo basically no queue

is that what im taking from this

[grizzled storm]

Is the Queue Not working? With two players?

Ah Yes you Said the Game shits

[stable heart]

Yea, once a second player tries connecting the queue no longer works at all lol

[grizzled storm]

I mean test it does it happen everytime?

[stable heart]

Over multiple rounds restarts

I cam do some tests but it'll take a little

[grizzled storm]

Okay. I will test some stuff

But if its really basegame we are fucked

When exactly is this error happening?

If the Server is Full and someone is joining?

[stable heart]

Correct

apologies for flickering, on a linux laptop with intel graphics lol. issue happens whenever atleast one person joins queue

here is the full console log for when the issue occurs, from first join in that vid to after second attempt.
(its my ip and steamid under a vpn so ill be fine)

[grizzled storm]

the most errors come because cedmod doesnt like our queue very mutch

[stable heart]

ofc ofc lol

[grizzled storm]

also are u using version v1 or v1.1

[stable heart]

1.1

spinning up a empty test server other than this plugin rq

issue does persist

[grizzled storm]

Im absolutly confused. I dont have a single error in my console like you.

[stable heart]

Thats strange...

[grizzled storm]

check dms

[grizzled storm]

After some weird stuff here the new version: https://github.com/reversum/QueueSystem/releases/tag/LabAPI-Pluginv1.1 (thank you @stable heart for testing the stuff with me)

[stable heart]

added benefit of cmod not shitting itself

[grizzled storm]

actually it was but however we patched it 😎

[unique schooner]

BTW there's a patch for it somewhere in #plugins-dev-chat

[grizzled storm]

v1.2

https://github.com/reversum/QueueSystem/releases/tag/LabAPI-Pluginv1.2

Switched to the publicized C# assembly
Reworked the ShowHints function
Removed an unnecessary event handler

[stable heart]

just thought of this @grizzled storm
can verification staff bypass queue?

[grizzled storm]

Thats a fucking good point will add so NW dont hate us and will also add option for global mods

[grizzled storm]

v1.3

https://github.com/reversum/QueueSystem/releases/tag/LabAPI-Pluginv1.3

Added AllowNWStaffToSkipQueue to the Config, allowing NW Staff to skip always the Queue.

[quiet pollen]

Can you also make a similar one for people with a reserved slot? :)

[grizzled storm]

should be working

[unique schooner]

Also that would be cool function if a player wants to join a full server but there's player's with reserved slot or bypass then it allows it to join, because now I have to leave and join back to let players join to the server

[grizzled storm]

So a option that ignores the players that are using reserved slots?

[unique schooner]

Yes, so if the server is 10/10 but 2 player have reserved slot then the queue allow 2 players to join

[grizzled storm]

will add a config option in the next update

[unique schooner]

Thanks!

[native drum]

So cool

[grizzled storm]

i didnt made a new update for it but yeah here it is:

# Allows people with a ReservedSlot to always skip the queue.
skip_with_reserved_slot: true
# Subtract the number of people online with reserved slots so that players can still join.
subtract_reserved_slots: false

You need to set it on true standard wise its on false.

https://github.com/reversum/QueueSystem/releases/tag/LabAPI-Pluginv1.3

[unique schooner]

Thanks!

[grizzled storm]

if you have any other ideas just let me know

[unique schooner]

Maybe a command for staff to check how many player is in the queue, besides this I don't have any other

[timber cape]

I have a question. Would this plugin work if a user is directly connecting to a server through the IP Address?

[grizzled storm]

This is not a proxy plugin so yeah ofc

[timber cape]

What about using it on a local test server?

[grizzled storm]

works also. just use dummies.

[grizzled storm]

https://github.com/reversum/QueueSystem/releases/tag/LabAPI-Pluginv1.3

Nothing changed. Just a new build. 😄

[grizzled storm]

Im currently working on the next version and yeah.

Need feedback if i should really add this option 🐍

[unique schooner]

That would be cool

[copper raptor]

Yo holy shit

So they're not authenticated, but they're able to play snake?

[grizzled storm]

yes

[copper raptor]

That's fucked up

Hypothetically, could you give them like noclip and let them observe the round, or is the map empty to them?

[grizzled storm]

let me actually check this

[stable heart]

I believe cedmod would make this impossible

As it despawns players out of virw

View

[grizzled storm]

its possible yeah

[copper raptor]

Holy shit

[grizzled storm]

but yeah

[copper raptor]

That is so tuff

[grizzled storm]

need to patch them out of the spec list and make them invisible

[grizzled storm]

#plugins-dev-chat message no fun for us guys

i mean maybe i could fake their role for others as none

but yeah

[stable heart]

ik cedmod does the same, where it shows players out of range as film maker

[copper raptor]

[grizzled storm]

a few bug fixes.
https://github.com/reversum/QueueSystem/tree/LabAPI -> changed from queue to list because yeah

[scenic sorrel]

Hey @grizzled storm! I'm having an issue where me and my mods are unable to skip the queue despite having the option enabled for reserved slots in the configs.

My theory is that it isn't working because we exclusively use CedMod to handle groups, permissions, and reserved slots. I think what happens is that CedMod does not detect anyone in the queue and only once they have joined the server "properly". Which means that they technically don't have a reserved slot according to the server until first after they have went through the queue, at which point it's naturally too late.

Do you know if your plugin is compatible in this way with CedMod? Or is there something else that's causing queue skipping to not work for us?

[zinc prism]

together with kellog here; our current assumption is that cedmod does not give players their roles until they are authenticated, and the queue delays authentication

i'll take a look at the codebase and then perhaps we could dig deeper

[stable heart]

I use cedmod primarily and it works fine

[copper raptor]

If CedMod only allocated reserved slots once they've already joined the server, then CedMod's reserved slots wouldn't work base game

Because they'd be kicked before they could be authenticated because the server is full

[scenic sorrel]

Is there an official compatibility statement? If it will not work would it be possible to implement the comparability since CedMod is such a widespread plugin?

@grizzled storm

[copper raptor]

@stable heart claims he uses both without issue
If we are to believe that then that means the issue is not with CedMod, it's with something else

[scenic sorrel]

Yeah its fair I’m just not sure if I do believe maarwan

[stable heart]

I'll show you, one moment

[scenic sorrel]

Yes okay

[stable heart]

not much more than this to show

not in the reserved slots file either

just cedmod

[grizzled storm]

I really need more user statements

Maybe I will setup cedmod for testing

Maybe

[copper raptor]

What other plugins do you have?

And have reserved slots been working on your server outside of this plugin?

And do you have the config set up correctly for both?

[scenic sorrel]

• these

moderationtools
antisuicidal zombies
cedmod

reserved slots work fine otherwise without the plugin

[scenic sorrel]

For this plugin yes everything was set up properly I double checked twice. I never checked any cedmod configs but I’m not sure what there would be for me to change there anyways since reserved slots works otherwise

[copper raptor]

I'll see if later I can't install all the plugins you have on my local host and try to reproduce the issue

[scenic sorrel]

Yeah that would be very helpful

I’ll look into it more on my end

@zinc prism @void wraith Have a look at this

[stable heart]

you have reserved slot selected yes? cmod overrides default reserved slots (although the file still applies, but might not be read by other plugins)

ignore the discord role

[copper raptor]

Most sane server owner

[copper raptor]

I see nothing wrong with this

[scenic sorrel]

Yes reserved slot is selected on my end

[modern sand]

CedMod stores the reserved slots in a dictionary. @grizzled storm just need to add a check if CedMod is running on the server and then use:
CedMod.Addons.QuerySystem.QuerySystem.ReservedSlotUserids.Contains(UserId)

https://github.com/CedModV2/CedMod/blob/master/CedMod/Addons/QuerySystem/QuerySystem.cs

[grizzled storm]

As I said im not yet convinced to support cedmod by default we will see

[modern sand]

Well, it isnt that hard to check if cedmod is running...

if (PluginLoader.Plugins.Any(p => p.Key.Name == "CedMod"))
{
    if (CedMod.Addons.QuerySystem.QuerySystem.ReservedSlotUserids.Contains(userId))
    {
        return true;
    }
}
else if (ReservedSlot.HasReservedSlot(userId))
{
    return true;
}
```I didnt test this, but it would probably work

[grizzled storm]

I'm not talking about how difficult it is to implement.

[modern sand]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1293207558424887347/1405226832927916265/attachment.gif

[grizzled storm]

Personally, I'm just not a fan of CedMod. Not at all. But if the majority here wants it, I'll implement it.

[modern sand]

Well, almost everyone here is using CedMod, so your plugin is pretty useless for them. You’ll just have to adapt

[grizzled storm]

well your code wouldnt work that way so i will just use reflections

[modern sand]

it would work, but your solution is better than mine

[grizzled storm]

No because: The compiler always tries to resolve CedMod.Addons.QuerySystem.QuerySystem.ReservedSlotUserids even if we do the plugin check because the problem occurs before runtime evaluation at compile-time.

https://github.com/reversum/QueueSystem/releases/tag/LabAPI-Pluginv1.31

[modern sand]

it does, but as i said your solution is way better than mine

and btw you forgot to add CedMod support to SubtractReservedSlots

[grizzled storm]

oopsie done.

[copper raptor]

This is mad interesting to me because one CedMod user reported no issues while another did
The solution you've presented may not be the actual solution needed to fix their problems
Though maybe it will idk I'm not a rocket scientist

[copper raptor]

FACTS

🗣️

[stable heart]

Well time to test on a vanilla server hold on

[stable heart]

so apparently i was the biggest liar ever (cedmod reserved slots do not bypass queue on vanilla servers w/ only cmod)

[copper raptor]

Oh fire

[stable heart]

oh shit i know why it worked previously
before we switched to cedmod 8 months ago all of the server staff/patrons had their id's in the reserved slots folder, and would ya know it they are still in there

including me :D

[grizzled storm]

Well now it works too for cedmod

[stable heart]

coolzies

[scenic sorrel]

Is this tested and confirmed?

Because then I'd like to give the plugin another try

[scenic sorrel]

The plugin still does not work after testing it @grizzled storm
The cedmod fix has not solved the problem

In fact it has come with a bug now instead which has lowered the servers capacity from 30 to 28 by putting you in queue on 28 players out of 30 or higher despite subtracting slots being set to false

subtract slots is turned OFF in this case

is_enabled: true
# Enable debug logs.
debug: false

# Allows people with a ReservedSlot to always skip the queue.
skip_with_reserved_slot: true
# Subtract the number of people online with reserved slots so that players can still join.
subtract_reserved_slots: false```

[stable heart]

Idk ehat you are doing but it works fine for me, no issue like this at all.

[scenic sorrel]

That’s likely because you have added user ids for those with reserved slots in the reserved slots folder as you said. I’m trying to make it work solely using cedmod reserved slots.

[stable heart]

I've tested this on a server with and without. The main server does not use that anymore

Soo again, its likely a different plugin issue.

[scenic sorrel]

I’m just not sure if I can trust the reliability of your info on this. You said similarly last time just like now that everything worked fine but you were wrong then. I wouldn’t surprised if you are mistaken now as well. If someone else can confirm that it works as intended for them as well then I will believe it’s an issue on my end.

hi i just want ask
how to reference private var

[rich sparrow]

Publicize assembly

Or reflection

[cursive monolith]

Maybe npc

[stable heart]

if this plugin is still in support you should make the queue work post-auth instead of pre-auth so tokens dont expire 🙏
also cmod whitelists dont work again

[cursive monolith]

I can fix and improve the plugin 👍
I love Harmony patches.

[grizzled storm]

im not playing or coding for sl rn so feel free todo whatever you want with the plugin

[cursive monolith]

💀

Bro
I wasn’t even talking to you.

[grizzled storm]

Okay? Still my work here?

Maybe don't take everything as an attack... I wanted to tell you to keep going and feel free to continue working on the plugin here. I would also have liked to give you GitHub Contributor or the repo.
