[PS2] Getting player data under outfit

Is there a way to display more player info under /outfit? Currently my program needs to check everyone's outfit id, then go to all 120 member pages to get their username and stats. This takes over 30 seconds, even on my webserver's internet connection. This is less then ideal for clients using my webpage.

 

First, this should be in the Planetside 2 sub-forum, but feldon should be able to move it for you. Second, you should be able to resolve some player data into the outfit, but you really don't want to resolve it all.. just what you need. Example (taken from another thread in the ps2 sub-forum:

http://census.daybreakgames.com/get/ps2-beta/...ue,stats.kills.value,type.faction,experience)

That's resolving the member list, but only bringing in the fields in the parenthesis.

 

Moved to the Planetside 2 subforum.

 

Hi Novicode,

Looks like a sencible place to post an answer, but also a question of my own

So i have an outfit website (the look and feel sucks but the content is OK) http://x8-decisive-sylph-m.appspot.com/

So to get outfit Info I use the following calls to the API

First I use
http://census.daybreakgames.com/s:mb/get/ps2-beta/outfit/?alias=PUGZ

To get the outfit ID and some other info, then I use

http://census.daybreakgames.com/get/ps2-beta/outfit_member/37511770385198092?c:limit=100&c:start=0&c:resolve=character(name,type.faction,experience,profile.active_name.en,stats_weekly.kills.faction,stats_weekly.facility_capture_count,stats_weekly.facility_defended_count,stats_weekly.play_time.class,stats_daily.facility_capture_count,stats_daily.facility_defended_count,stats_daily.play_time.class,stats_daily.kills.faction,stats_monthly.facility_capture_count,stats_monthly.facility_defended_count,stats_monthly.play_time.class,stats_monthly.kills.faction,,stats.facility_capture_count,stats.facility_defended_count,stats.play_time.class,stats.kills.faction,times.last_login),online_status

to get 100 players info at a time using the resolve keyword to get the info I need. I then repeat this for all the members of the outfit, I use 50 at a time to avoid timeouts etc. And this works for even big outfits like G0DS with nearly 4k members

http://x8-decisive-sylph-m.appspot.com/?outfit=G0DS&sort=outfit_rank

My problem is that this dosn't work with the new ps2 api. If anyone has an idea that would be great, otherwise i will keep on looking.

Cheers

just for info, after a bit of playing, this will get you most of the stuff you might need (unfiltered though)

http://census.daybreakgames.com/get/ps2/outfi...status,characters_stat_history,character_name

but it doesn't get all the vehicle or class specific info which the above one gets, this must be possible though, so I will keep looking but some help would be apreciated

Cheers
