Plugin Request: "Point-Ranking"

[kripkee]

Hello Lords of eXpansion,

I have a plugin request, which I would like to use for my contest in Maniaplanet in the future.
How should that plugin work:

The plugin has to create 3 "Scoreboards" => "Total", "Session", "Temporary".
Total: Collect the Point-Ranking of "lifetime"
Session: Collect points only if "/admin session on" and stop counting with "/admin session off". If player want to see their score, they have to type "/session". This open a "endless" list of players with their score and an extra line from the player itself with his/her rank (ex. "Kripke - 297 Points - Rank 36), the list itself is sort by "Rank" (ex. "1.) Bomberman - 730 Points") . If a session is done, you can reset the score with "/admin session reset"
Temporary: Collect the Point-Ranking if an admin type "/admin temp reset".

Calculation: The number of players - your placement after the end of a map. => 23 Players - 11th place => 12 Points.
1 Player - 1st place = 0 points etc. If somewhere is in "spectator" but he has already a time or a score, he/she will be counted as well. If he/she has no score and is in spectator, he/she won't be counted for the score. Same situation for "if somene leave the server".

At least there should be one widget, which show all TopX scores in order. For example "10 seconds Total - 10 seconds Session - 10 seconds Temporary". -> Maybe an idea for local and dedimania widgets?^^.

I would like to start a contest with these point ranking (like I did in TM1^^),... Would be could if you can do it when you have time^^.

Edit: If you someone do a skip/res-vote or use something like /admin skip/res/endround. The plugin won't calculate nothing

Hi,

It would be a great idea indeed. We want we reaby to develop a tournament manager that would store information in database and allow to publish this information on a website.
For know my priorities at least are :
- Composer update/install (which is nearly all done)
- Find a way to download maps from MX asynchronously since they switched to https. I started working on this and will probably continue this & next weekend at least.
- Fix & Fix open issues

Then can start working on new features so formyself I doubt before a few monthes. Good news? Well the composer update will make it easier for any developper to build his plugin and distribute it to the users. Once that is fully in place I expect other people to start coding their own plugins. which would be greaaat.
