As mentioned in the previous article, email is an insufficent way too manage bugs. That's why it's recommended to use specialised bug tracking software.

I will show you how to setup and use mantis bug tracker.
modevents.res


== Gather needed materials ==
Here be good stuff


Download mantis from [http://www.mantisbt.org/ Mantis] and upload the package to your website.
Game Event System


== Create the database ==
Creating Events
IGameEvent *event = gameeventmanager->CreateEvent( "player_death" );
if( event )
{
event->SetInt("userid", pVictim->GetUserID() );
event->SetInt("attacker", killer_ID );
event->SetString("weapon", killer_weapon_name );
gameeventmanager->FireEvent( event );
}


Create a database ahead of time. I prefer to use phpmyadmin for this task. There are many tutorials on this subject.
Listening for Events
gameeventmanager->AddListener( this, "player_death", false );


== Preparing the databse for use ==
Capturing Events
void CMapOverview::FireGameEvent( IGameEvent *event )
{
const char * type = event->GetName();
if ( Q_strcmp(type, "player_death") == 0 )
{
}
}


You need to populate the database, this is very easy if you have access to phpmyadmin, first select the mantis database from the database list, then navigate to the sql execution page, then either find the populate_sql.sql file in the /sql folder or just copy and paste all of what's contained in that file into the execute sql queries field.
== My Notes ==


This should setup the database for mantis.
r_cleardecals - by the way Ben, there are no engine hooks for this so it cannot be called by code...but if <code>r_cleardecals 1</code> is called, it will also remove permanent decals projected by infodecal.&mdash;'''[[User:Ts2do|ts2do]]'''
:Hrmmm - this was going to be for my round reset code, what I was thinking of doing was this -


== Configuration of the database ==
for ( int i = 1; i <= gpGlobals->maxClients; i++ )
{
CBasePlayer *pPlayer = UTIL_PlayerByIndex( i );
        EHANDLE pPlayerHandle = pPlayer;
        engine->ClientCommand(gEntList.GetEdict(pPlayerHandle), "r_cleardecals");
        }


Find the config_defaults_inc.php file and edit theese sections

  # --- database variables --------- 
   
  # set these values to match your setup   
   
    # hostname should be either a hostname or connection string to supply to adodb.   
  # For example, if you would like to connect to a mysql server on the local machine, 
  # set hostname to 'localhost', and db_type to 'mysql'. 
  # If you need to supply a port to connect to, set hostname as 'localhost:3306'.

  $g_db_type = 'mysql'; 
 
Make sure the settings presented here match your chosen databases settings.
 
== Finished product ==
 
Navigate your web browser to the mantis directory and login with the default provided username and password that is supplied with the installation.
 
  Username: administrator 
  Password: root 
 
== Familiarizing yourself  ==
 
Learn how to use the bug tracking software, it's a fairly straight forward package. You need to create a project first before you can do anything with it.
 
There are many tutorials on the mantis site which contain usage hints and tips.

Here be good stuff

Game Event System

Creating Events 

IGameEvent *event = gameeventmanager->CreateEvent( "player_death" );
if( event )
{
	event->SetInt("userid", pVictim->GetUserID() );
	event->SetInt("attacker", killer_ID );
	event->SetString("weapon", killer_weapon_name );
	gameeventmanager->FireEvent( event );
}

Listening for Events 

gameeventmanager->AddListener( this, "player_death", false );

Capturing Events 

void CMapOverview::FireGameEvent( IGameEvent *event )
{
	const char * type = event->GetName();
	if ( Q_strcmp(type, "player_death") == 0 )
	{
	}
}

My Notes

r_cleardecals - by the way Ben, there are no engine hooks for this so it cannot be called by code...but if r_cleardecals 1 is called, it will also remove permanent decals projected by infodecal.—ts2do

Hrmmm - this was going to be for my round reset code, what I was thinking of doing was this -


	for ( int i = 1; i <= gpGlobals->maxClients; i++ )
	{
		CBasePlayer *pPlayer = UTIL_PlayerByIndex( i );

	        EHANDLE pPlayerHandle = pPlayer;
	        engine->ClientCommand(gEntList.GetEdict(pPlayerHandle), "r_cleardecals");
        }
