Sends out notifications over a TCP Socket on the following events:

• Player connected to the server
• Player joined the game
• Player left the game

To successfully use the plugin you need the following components:

1. HLDS Server
2. cstrike game
3. AMX Mod X 1.8.2
4. TCP Socket listener

1. Compile the plugin
2. Copy compiled plugin into your cstrike/cstrike/addons/amxmodx/plugins directory
3. Start TCP Socket server on tcp4:127.0.0.1:28000
4. Restart HLDS Server

Package scheme: EVENT\tDATASET\n Dataset scheme: FIELD1\tFIELD2\tFIELD4\tFIELDn\t

Overall process:

1. HLDS Server is running
2. AMX Mod X is enabled
3. AMX Mod X has Join Alert plugin enabled
4. Cstrike game goes on
5. A player connects to the server
6. Plugin triggers CONNECT event
7. A player picks a team to join and joins it
8. Plugin triggers ENTER event
9. A player gets tired and leaves the game
10. Plugin triggers LEAVE event

Event triggering process:

1. Something happens
2. HLDS/cstrike triggers an event
3. AMX Mod X receives that event
4. AMX Mod X triggers corresponging event for plugins
5. Plugin handles event with a function

Package sending process:

1. Nothing is happening, no sockets are open
2. An event happens
3. Plugin handler function being executed
4. Hahdler function triggers say_to_socket2() function
5. say_to_socket2() function makes an attempt to open a TCP socket
6. say_to_socket2() function verifies if the socket was successfully opened
7. If fails opening a socket, error is written to HLDS console and bool:false returned
8. If no errors appeared, a message is being sent over the opened socket and then the socket is being closed

Here goes a number of explained event and package contents examples.

1. Player MrBean connected to the server: CONNECT 9 STEAM_0:2:90009000 MrBean
2. Player MrBean chose to play as a CT: ENTER 9 STEAM_0:2:90009000 C MrBean
3. Player MrBean finally left the game: LEAVE 9 STEAM_0:2:90009000 C MrBean
