PsychoStats » PsychoStats Configuration » Logsources

How and where to get your game logs is the single most important option in the configuration. A "logsource" is usually a local directory on your computer to where the game logs are stored. PsychoStats also supports fetching logs from a remote FTP or SFTP (ssh) server. PsychoStats will transparently download logs from remote servers if needed and process them locally. By default downloaded logs are not saved on the local system. There is a configuration option that allows you to enable log saving if you need logs to be saved locally (but they're not needed by PsychoStats).

Future support for streaming logs from servers is planned but not currently implemented. It's not implemented yet due to issues that arise from trying to process multiple streams at the same time. You get fragmented stats since each stream is a different server all coming in at the same time.

Note: logsources in the format of stream://localhost:28000 are partially implemented in v3.0.0+ but are not fully tested and will most likely have problems if you try to stream more than 1 server at a time.
