A clear and concise description of what the problem is.

Sometimes you might want to see at what date specific player was marked (automatically or manually) and there is currently no timestamp for such action.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add date/epoch/unix timestamp at which player was marked. Visible upon player inspection.

Additional context

To avoid breaking old lists, do not require date.

i would never queue with 5 bots and be unkickable

It would be nice to have the option to automatically cast F1 votes for marked players in your list when a team mate calls the vote.

Because sometimes there is just too much going on in the game itself. So checking the player in the app may be too distracting.

Describe the bug

Using huds with chat resources and then opening TF2BD will stop loading at 19% "generating chat message wrappers" and then it will close automatically

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Use a hud with that contains the files chat_english, chat_russian etc in resource folder e.g. budhud
2. Open TF2BD
3. It will pause on 19% and then close

Expected behavior

Should load to 100% then allow you to start the game

You can remove those text files to allow it to launch, but that breaks the hud

It would be nice if profiles opened in Steam instead of an external browser.
Otherwise an internal browser that can use the account credentials would be nice too.

This would facilitate reporting, blocking etc.

How do i fix it?

A clear and concise description of what the problem is.

The recent improvements bot hosters have implemented are making it more and more difficult to spot bots, but there's a few exploitable consistencies they have that we can use to detect them. Notably, some bots (Mechniator bots are an easy one to point at) use the same few profile pictures for all (or at least a sizable number) of their bot accounts.

Describe the solution you'd like

Since TF2BD already fetches profile pictures to be displayed in the TF2BD GUI, it shouldn't be that much more intensive to run a hash check against all the profile pictures as people join a match and then warn the TFBD user that they're potentially a bot.

This does have a small chance of false positives if someone happens to be using the same profile picture (based on some reverse image searching, I don't think this will be very common, however), it might be best to implement this functionality in the UI as a little badge in the TF2BD player list similar to how VAC/Game/Community server bans currently appear. Alternatively a new "mark as" category might be a viable option if you'd rather keep the badges purely ban-related.

I'd also like to mention it'd be very nice to have a toggleable option to automatically save the hash as known-suspicious when someone is manually marked as a Cheater.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Manually hovering across the list of players when joining a match to see if there's any accounts with bot-used profile pictures.

Additional context

There isn't really anything else that couldn't be included in the other fields, if you have an questions or need any clarifications I'm happy to oblige.

A clear and concise description of what the problem is.
I caught myself a few times marking someone who I didn't mean to mark because right before I right clicked, the list updated and the order of players has shifted.

Describe the solution you'd like
Freeze the state of the player list when the cursor is within that list.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Nothing comes to mind.

Additional context
I realize the name of the player shows up in the context menu that opens up after rightclicking, but I admit, when I'm marking someone while waiting for a respawn on a short timer (or, worse, briefly mid-life when behind cover), the thought of double checking that name slips my mind.
With this feature implemented, there would be less reason to do that check. Unless you have bad aim, I suppose.

Describe the bug
When launcing tf2 via TF2BD, there's screen tearing

To Reproduce

1. Launch TF2BD
2. Launch TF2 via TF2BD
3. Click the "Find a Game" button
4. It'll be warped while opening (applies ingame too)

Expected behavior
No screen tearing (launching via steam has no issues)

Desktop (please complete the following information):
Linux Mint 21.3

Additional context
Recording TF2 with something like OBS does not capture the screen tearing

Add an option to votekick exploiters, disabled by default preferably. most consider exploiting to be as bad as cheating, and some exploits are worse then cheating due to the sheer disruption caused.

Add an option to disable message prints for racism, and print suspicious/exploitive players.

Add an option to disable the scoreboard marks for racism/suspicious

Describe the bug

When you place your mouse cursor at the right place between 2 people, you can see both.

Describe the solution you'd like

A clear and concise description of what the problem is.

It's be nice to have TF2BD close whenever you exit TF2 as well so you don't have to do it manually each time. Sometimes I forget to close TF2BD after closing TF2 and it causes Steam and Discord Rich Presence to still say I'm playing TF2.

Describe the solution you'd like

Create a feature (as an optional setting) that closes TF2BD upon detecting the game also being closed after having been launched with the tool.

Additional Information

Might be helpful to avoid closing TF2BD upon a game crash and not a manual exit? Though I understand if that's simply not possible because there isn't a way to distinguish; I don't mind if the tool closes even upon a crash, it'd be a very nice QOL improvement either way.

Describe the bug

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Launch TF2BD Py Edition
2. Launch TF2 via launch button
3. Wait for launch.
4. See error

Expected behavior

I expect the TF2BD Py Edition to load and connect.

Bots mic spamming is annoying and having to manually mute them is also annoying

Describe the solution you'd like

Have marked players/bots be auto muted (if the setting is on)

Describe alternatives you've considered

Nothing that i can think of

Additional context

Just an option in settings, maybe when you right click the person on the player list you can choose to unmute/mute them from there too? maybe have a little mute icon next to their name if they ARE muted

).

Describe the solution you'd like

In order to allow the tool to cohabite with other ones that also need access to the rcon, it'd be judicious to let the user hardcode these values to whatever they choose provided they understand this is vaguely less safe.

It can be tiring to manually terminate the connection from a server before fully connecting when it's filled with bots/cheaters.

Describe the solution you'd like

A disconnect command can be sent through the pre-existing bot detector via rcon if the bot detector sees there are X amount of bots/cheaters on X team before it full connects to a server, which could also be adjusted via a setting.

Additional context
This also happens in normal tf2bd, its a TF2 issue. (thank u valve) nope its a tf2bd issue

Potential Fixes (ideas)

• remove chat wrappers
  I won't be doing this as it will screw over people not having their game language set to English
• make chat wrapper a constant and make user merge resources
  potential new abuse angle?
• make it automatically merge with existing chat wrapper resources
  wow that sounds like a can of worms I kind of don't want to do that
• cry
  (and tell the users about this reason)
  current option at the moment

might have a resource detection thing or something idk ugh

A clear and concise description of what the problem is.

I currently have a pretty sizable list as I've added a lot of bots. It is a bit awkward to manually add the reason to each account in the json.

Describe the solution you'd like

Would be nice if, when I mark a player, I could provide my reason for marking the player. That way I don't have to manually add it to the json for each account.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Perhaps instead of prompting the user for each mark it is just a separate entry in the right click menu? That way people who don't care to provide a reason, can just do what they've always done with no change.

Additional context

It would also help for the "racist" option as the auto-flag only takes in account chat messages. If I flag someone as racist I could easily make the reason "Said slur over mic." (Maybe also change "racist" to bigot, though I fear that might break old lists?)

I know it's already possible to do this somewhat with the "Reason" input section, but having an individual section where u can manually input the cheater past known alias could be helpful to identifying who he/she is faster.
Ex: CheaterNewGibberishName ( Manually inputted past alias of the cheater here)
Or Partychat: The player "new cheater alias" is known as/ referred to as "manually inputted past alias"

Describe the bug

To Reproduce

1. Open app
2. Click "Help"
3. Click "Open Github"
4. The wrong repo opens.

Expected behavior

This repo opens.

Because there's no direct link to this repo, currently I always have to use fork.rip/PazerOP/tf2_bot_detector to find this again.

Additional context

Add any other context about the problem here.

When determining if someone is cheating, it's useful to check their friends list for other known cheaters. Adding something that automatically checks their friendslist for matches on your playerlists would be useful - it would say something like "Friends with 10 users marked as cheater on playerlist.json (50%)" with 50% being the % of friends who are cheaters. It might be better to check both ways (checking the player you are hovering's friends list as well as checking those marked in your playerlist for their id, in case they have private friends) but I'm unsure if that would be too complicated or spam requests too much if you have a large list or something.

A clear and concise description of what the problem is.

I often forget what map I just played on, and the match making end score doesn't tell.
I've learned that the tool has knowledge of the map #8, so it might be possible without too much work.

Describe the solution you'd like

Map changed from 'old_map' to 'new_map'

Describe alternatives you've considered

Leaving map 'old_map'
Connecting to map 'new_map'

To me the last map would be convinient because I often find myself in the situation of "huh, what map was that I just played but TF2 won't show on the scoreboard?"

Describe the bug

To Reproduce

1. Start bot detector
2. Launch TF2 from bot detector
3. play some tf2 but be frustrated by 9 bots on your own team and disconnect from servers a lot.
4. Close TF2;
   Bot detector now looks like this
   
5. Wait.

Now:

• A) Wait about 10 hours, and you can't open google.com in your webbrowser, as bot detector will eventually saturate all 65535 local ports.
• B) This can be confirmed by Powershell's Get-NetTCPConnection,
• C) Or by looking at the Handles count in Process Informer > Processes > tf2_bot_detector.exe > Properties > Statistics > Other > Peak Handles raising about every 5 seconds. Repeat Step 2 and 3 to make it more obvious.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 10
• Version of bot detector: 1.5.12, but i didn't see anything relevant in the changelogs about this in the newer 1.5.13.

Additional context

My guess is that it is trying to connect (RCON?) to tf2 to see if it's (already/again) launched, but doesn't properly clean up the socket connections after each test, so it's opening them but never closing.
if you keep the program open for a day or more as you ignore it in the background, it will use up more and more ports until eventually other programs can't connect to shit no more.

Describe the bug

Team Fortress 2 updated and has changed the executable's name to tf.exe and tf_win64.exe. This prevents tf2bd from detecting the executable as it was named hl2.exe before.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Launch tf2bd
2. Launch Team Fortress 2
3. It does not detect the game.

Expected behavior

Tf2bd to detect Team Fortress 2.

None.

Describe the bug

While playing on VSH maps (tested on official Valve servers), TF2BD has trouble properly recognizing player teams - instead of showing everyone except current Hale as "Friendly", it shows half of the players as "Friendly" and "Enemy", as if I was playing on a normal server. This prevents features such as auto-kick from working reliably.

To Reproduce

1. Join a Valve server hosting a VSH map (Nucleus/Distillery/Skirmish/Tiny Rock)
2. Look at the team assignment in TF2BD.
