[hobbit] NCV RRD weirdness

AH HAH... my problem is solved!!!

Seems that I had to have an extra carriage return (or make the value(s) show up first in my status) for it to find TWO data points!

Now I get this in my rrd file: <version> 0001 </version> <step> 300 </step> <!-- Seconds --> <lastupdate> 1133148517 </lastupdate> <!-- 2005-11-27 21:28:37 CST -->

    </ds>

Which is EXACTLY what I wanted!!!! :) Might want to stress that Henrik. :) I had to do this in my ext script:

            $BB $BBDISP "status $MACHINE.$COLUMN $COLOR `date`

            curplayers : $cur_players
            avgping : $avg_ping
            ${MSG}"

Now if I hadn't sent ${MSG} it would have to look like this:

            $BB $BBDISP "status $MACHINE.$COLUMN $COLOR `date`

            curplayers : $cur_players
            avgping : $avg_ping

"

Now my next question.. LOL I'd like to have two SEPARATE graphs for this stuff... I tried this:

[qstat] TITLE Current Number of Players YAXIS # of Players DEF:curplayers=qstat.rrd:curplayers:AVERAGE LINE2:curplayers#00CCCC:Current Players COMMENT:\n GPRINT:curplayers:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur) GPRINT:curplayers:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max) GPRINT:curplayers:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min) GPRINT:curplayers:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)\n [qstat1] TITLE Average Ping YAXIS ms DEF:avgping=qstat.rrd:avgping:AVERAGE LINE2:avgping#00CCCC:Average Ping COMMENT:\n GPRINT:avgping:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur) GPRINT:avgping:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max) GPRINT:avgping:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min) GPRINT:avgping:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)\n

And that didn't work. Now if I moved the qstat1 stuff (minus title and yaxis) up into qstat.. I got one graph with two lines... I GUESS that's ok but.. ;)
