Greetings everyone and Happy Two Year Anniversary!
Apologies for the delay on this update as I was preoccupied with a few things and then fell under the weather for a period of time. Nevertheless, the AHG Summer update notes are here.
If you are someone who checks the public Trello board every now and then, you may already be aware of the features to come for this event.
So what's new in this event?
Stats Tracking
This update will include stat tracking, with the aim being to provide players with a competitive leaderboard on the forums (this part is still in development) and for us developers and contributors to easier add features based on weapon tracking (such as skins, mastery, etc.)
Despite the forum leaderboard not being available yet, the stats are still tracking and here is a breakdown of the stats that are tracked.
The Member Rank
The Member rank is a new ulx group that will be awarded to all non-staff members who are registered on the forums.
Another thing to note is weapon mastery, this is a concept that we will be implementing in the near future. In essence you will be able to obtain certain rewards for milestones achieved with a weapon.
The update will be released in the next 24 hours. Enjoy!

Stats Tracking
This update will include stat tracking, with the aim being to provide players with a competitive leaderboard on the forums (this part is still in development) and for us developers and contributors to easier add features based on weapon tracking (such as skins, mastery, etc.)
Despite the forum leaderboard not being available yet, the stats are still tracking and here is a breakdown of the stats that are tracked.
- Kills - This is a simple total counter for all of your kills, these kills and all other stats related to kills do NOT include teamkills or Fun Round kills.
- Headshots - A total headshot counter, will also track headshots per weapon.
- Weapon Kills - Kills per weapon, this will be distinct across servers, i.e. your kills with the Galil on vanilla will be separate from those on modded.
- Prop Kills - Kills per prop model, this will also be distinct across servers, this will track your prop kills via various models, e.g. minecraftcity's pig, or your generic barrel (the oildrum)
- Force Kills - This is a catch for very strange kills, due to Gmod and the source engine's way of attributing events/damage to players, this category will include things like crowbar/newton push kills, poltergeist explosion kills (not kills with the prop it's attached too), and world entity kills like crushing someone with a door. This category is a humorous one, and let's say you get a kill with func_door by pushing someone into a closing door and they die. This will count towards your force kills as a +1, then it will add a +1 to your func_door kills in "Weapon Kills". So this would mean there is a possibility of being a leaderboard for just about anything you can get a kill with, not just guns.
- Traitor/Innocent Contribution - Kills as Traitor against Innos/Detectives and Kills as Inno/Detective against Traitors. A counter to show your team contribution.
- Highest Kills on Innos/Traitors - A record of your highest kills in a round as one team against the other.
The Member Rank
The Member rank is a new ulx group that will be awarded to all non-staff members who are registered on the forums.
- This rank will not override your premium ranks, nor your legacy ranks. It will exist alongside them.
- The rank will display in the scoreboard in the same column as the premium ranks. Of course, premium ranks will display instead if you have them.
- Registering on the forums and therefore getting your member rank will get you a one-time bonus reward. This will be applied retroactively for users who are already registered.
- Somewhat related, buying a premium rank will also reward you a points-reward, this will be done retroactively for all of your ranks.
- Some HL2 models that were previously available only for VIP or higher are now in the new member rank section of the shop. The list of models are as below:
- Combine Civil Protection
- Male Medic
- Female Medic
- male_07
- There is now a "Random" option in the loadout section, this will give you a random weapon at the start of each round, and you can choose random for each category.
Another thing to note is weapon mastery, this is a concept that we will be implementing in the near future. In essence you will be able to obtain certain rewards for milestones achieved with a weapon.
The update will be released in the next 24 hours. Enjoy!
