URS BETA - A Highly Customizeable Restriction System (or will be)
« on: May 09, 2011, 01:46:25 PM »


I've been working on this project slowly and decided just to release a Beta that I would build off of.  URS is an acronym and stands for Ultimate Restriction Suite.  This project is a replacement of URestrict, which development was sadly stopped on.  I decided to develop this after URestrict just suddenly stopped working one day on my server and I had absolutely no restrictions.  Then Jay announced that he would not be able to continue development on it, and so I decided I'd take up a project of my own.  I'm not the most experienced in the field of Lua, but I certainly can get the job done (hopefully I do a decent job).


Features:
  • Fully functional menu IN XGUI!!
  • Restrictions for:  Props, Tools, Sweps, Sents, Vehicles, Ragdolls, Effects, Advance Duplicator, Pickups (weapons), and NPCs.
  • Custom Limits for:  Vehicles, Effects, Npcs, Ragdolls, Props, and Sents.
  • Custom Loadouts for each and every group.
  • Tool Usage Logging
  • Auto-Saving, never lose your changes!
  • Decide if your changes are public or not!
  • Restrict everything of a given type at once!
  • Does not tamper with Prop Protections or other scripts!

I think you have a great idea going there, but I hope you have a menu soon because 70% of my admins cant use stuff like this without a menu (no offence any admins that are reading this). I also would like to offer some help, because I am just starting to code LUA and this is a great opportunity to learn. In addition if its not too much of a struggle I was wondering if you could integrate the restrictions with SQL.

I could probably get something in for SQL, but the menu and some other additions I have planned come first.

Awesome! Glad you've found some time to work on this.
I'll be installing it as soon as I find a little time myself  ;D

I'd just like to note, I haven't tested this much at all in a dedicated server.  I shut mine down, so I'll have to get one up to test.  Otherwise, any feedback on how it's working in dedicated servers is welcome.

EDIT:  I also added a little Features list.

EDIT2:  I just organized and decorated the OP even more.

Not URS!
Oh, wait, it IS URS.

Nice!

Added the command ulx print [limits/restrictions/loadouts] to make up for not having a menu yet.  This prints the tables for loadouts, limits, or restrictions into your console.  See better description in OP.

Also, thanks for the compliments.

Aaron, I was looking over your code and just wanted to point out that ULX function call backs are only called server-side, so putting "if SERVER then ... end" is unnecessary.  And calling GetConVarNumber() is pretty inefficient because the engine has to lookup the cvar object in a linked list each time, it'd be better to store the cvar object and get the number directly from it.

Hope you find these suggestions helpful. :)

You can still make convar changes have instant effect, I was just recommending using ConVar:GetBool() instead of using the global function (which incurs a lookup). :P

Hehe, I'll be changing it in rv5.  :-[

Also, is there a way to have the completes for a command updated?  I know XGUI uses something for ban and kick reasons, but rather then looking through several files I thought I'd just ask.  Stickly is going to help later, but feel free to explain if you want.

You just update the table that has the completes you want. Make sure you don't try to "clear" the table first by doing "my_var = {}" because that creates a new table that is no longer tracked by ULX. (This is a Lua language thing, if you want me to go more in depth I can)

I swear I've tried that before and it didn't update.  Anyway, I'll try it out later and get back to you.
