Group Management System app

Group Management System

(cannot think of a better name)

This is a simple app I wrote for my own group for DayZ. Essentially it comes with these features:

- An interactive map that lets you place/edit/remove tent locations, you can easily mark all the tents you find on your journey. Multiple servers support

Sample screenshots (not real tents):

- A report section to communicate what had happened, when, on which server and when. Linked with the map tool

Sample screenshots (keep in mind, this is not our actual DB, those are just random reports :P):

- A permission management system lets you specify who can access which parts of the application

There isn't anything else besides it, if it's needed I can work on a couple of new features, especially since I will probably be doing that for my own group when the standalone comes out. If anyone finds this thing useful and needs some feature, post here and I might consider adding some of them. :)

Also, currently there is a variant of the map, the "lite" version. It's purely the map part, uses an XML file to store the tents. Requires you to manually edit it, but you can put it on DB or on a web server with no MySQL/PHP support. Just make sure you obfuscate the name of the servers in case someone gains access to the XML file when it's online. ;) Bear in mind, I will probably not continue developing the lite version and it's got pretty clunky UI.

Requirements for the GMS app:

- MySQL 5.1 (might work with earlier, tested with 5.1)

- PHP 5.3 minimum

- ~150 MB of webserver space

Requirements for the GMS lite app:

- ~150 MB of space (webserver, Dropbox etc.)

Standard version: https://dl.dropbox.c...GMS/gms-1-0.rar

Lite (XML) version: https://dl.dropbox.c...MS/gmsl-1-0.rar

Those downloads do not include the tiles needed for the map. They can be found seperately in the following download, put the "tiles" folder in "images" folder (needed for both regular and lite versions). Credit for the image file goes to telejunky, found on arma2base.de and cut into tiles:

Any further info (including install info) is in readme files that come in the rars. :) I hope somebody finds this useful, and if you've got any questions contact me here or via PM/E-mail (you can find the e-mail in the readme files). I do not guarantee this will work perfectly, it's been tested on one server, running Linux. However, I will try to resolve any issues if I can.
