I would like to know, is there a way to check my total messages sent in the chat across all servers? It would be a great statistic to see, how many messages I sent for the whole time playing Unturned. Maybe to create such API to track this stats?
Also I think Nelson should create a site with stats about players. It would be really useful! Imagine you can just copy and paste Steam ID64 and check stats about the player: KD, kills, deaths, hours and so on. Also Unturned mods can add information there about players. I will repeat again, this is would be very useful. I think it won’t be a problem to get API and to use it. I hope Nelson will read this post and think about it. Also the site needs reputation, like different people can like or dislike people to show their rep. Maybe reputation shouldnt be added cuz of some reasons, but in general, such site should be created. I think a lot of players would love this idea.
Not going to lie this is quite a good quality of life up update to give more info on yourself and players. Would love to see how much i yao on all servers i play!
The fact such sites with player skill stats are usually created by game’s community nor officially by game developers.
The idea of this site perhaps could be good, but Unturned isn’t that much popular and doesn’t have huge online like 10k at least. I’d say everyone knows each others in some point.
Technically, all of the stats available to the main menu and achievements can be queried using the Steam API! The game doesn’t track any analytics or stats outside of that, however. There were some community sites that allowed players to link their Steam account to put these stats on a leaderboard, but sadly their creators (understandably) moved on over the years.
Server owners would also be in a good position to publish that kind of data with the development of a plugin to track stats per-server-network. I think that would be fun to see!
Yea Steam API can help in creating site. But I was wondering, maybe some of the game’s staff can do it? It would be very useful to track players stats through the site.
There are no community sites as you said and thats why I want someone to create such site again or maybe you should do it ?
Kohai attempted this, project has been dead for ages tho. Don’t even recall why, I have a vague idea tho.
Except it would. Where does said API gets it data from? Server hosted by players? And how would you verify stats reported by third parties like this (reminder, all game servers are hosted on machines SDG has zero access to.
Again, how would you ensure that those interactions are genuine?
Way more trouble than its worth, and a half arsed implementation would just result in the site getting botted to shit or otherwise being very unreliable.
Bro is sturlling making a game, Molt is busy on the Discord/Forums and probably Git.
Please, go ahead, make one. If nothing else you’ll learn something along the way.
