Since the launch of Titan and the Neocron API, the THN has been working on a new project. Some of you may have seen the tweets about it or heard about it.

Today I'm announcing the THN Stats DB - http://stats.techhaven.org/

So what does it do?


Servers - Current server populations and latest outpost news (http://stats.techhaven.org/).
Servers - Last 5 days server populations (http://stats.techhaven.org/server/titan).
Outposts - Lists the current outpost owners (http://stats.techhaven.org/outposts/titan).
Outposts - Lists the past owners of an outpost (http://stats.techhaven.org/outposts/titan).
Clans - Lists all op-fighting clans (http://stats.techhaven.org/clans/titan).
Clans - Lists the current ops held by a clan and their fighting history (http://stats.techhaven.org/clan/phoenix-ltd).
Twitter - All outpost changes are tweeted by our THN-CPU (https://twitter.com/THNcpu) account so don't forget to follow!


So if you got a clan, and want to show potential members your op-fighting history, you can. Or do want to accuse another clan of Ninja hacking with evidence? Well you can do that as well. ;)

We got more features coming soon including:


Outpost security settings.
More graphs and plots.
Support for factions.
A world map.
Support for stats from the THN Rares DB.
German Language support.
...and much more.


Any comments and questions, please post them here in this thread!

A big thanks goes to Zoltan and the Neocron 2 support team for the API and also the THN team for their comments and testing.

Disclaimer: Use of the data from the Stats DB is at your own risk, the THN accepts no responsibility for any unexpected clan wars.

What denotes an op fighting clan? A single successful layer hack or the ownership of an op?

Showing up on the API - which I believe means owning an OP when the THN polls said API.

You lying bastard! My peep got hard for a second.

Better question for you. Do you actually know what a graph is?

Great work THN team. Really nice info there.

Here are some of my initial impressions / suggestions after using the stats DB for a few minutes.
- On the "outposts" and "clans" pages I'm somewhat missing the ability to sort each column. Now it's all sorted alphabetically by outpost / clan name with no option to sort it any other way.
- On the "outposts" page it might be interesting to have a filter / search ability for the outposts by type / security settings.
This might become extremely useful once you guys implement the outpost security settings into the stats DB.
For example I could filter to only show outposts that give a research bonus to Crahn. Then I can immediately see where I can go with my Crahn reseracher to get the biggest bonus, or if I should wait a few days for some outposts to change ownership to maybe get a better bonus.
I think a lot of tradeskillers will appreciate a function like this :)

Keep up the good work.

* Stats - Reduced the number highlight colours and changed them to be based on the DEFCON levels. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DEFCON
* Outpost taken with 3 hours - Defcon 1 - Red
* Outpost taken with 6 hours - Defcon 2 - Orange
* Outpost taken with 12 hours - Defcon 3 - Yellow
* Outpost taken with 24 hours - Defcon 4 - Green
* Outpost taken with 48 hours - Defcon 5 - Blue

So basically, how recent the event mentioned was.

A clan that takes ownership of the op, so the clan needs to take all 4 layers.

Thanks. :) And some good ideas there. I'll will add those features at some point.

Try clearing your cache, hit F5 hard, and make sure JavaScript is turned on. I've done a test on IE9 and Chrome, and it's fine here.

I'll point to Cmaster's earlier reply a couple of posts up. Those internal patch notes are still valid and I'll add a key at some point to help.

Thanks for the comments everyone. :)

Nice work! Random question though. Is account creation disabled on THN? I've been trying to create am account for a week and it keeps failing giving error 403. Spammers not allowed.

No, account creation is not disabled. For some reason, the anti-spam measures thinks you are a potential spammer. ;)

Can you give me a PM with the username and email address you are trying to register under? I'll check the logs to see why you are being rejected.
