URequest
« on: August 11, 2009, 01:57:28 AM »
==================URequest Has Been Rebuilt=================
Current Features:
     - Ability to make normal and private requests
     - Admins are notified at the time a request is made, and when they first join the server
     - Admins can now accept/deny requests rather than just deleting them
     - If the player is in the server when a request is accepted or denied they will be notified and a reason is given if supplied by the admin
     - If the player is not in the server at the time, they will be notified when they first spawn next time they join.
     - Everything in console autocomplete! :D
     - Full GUI with live updating. No more disappearing the re-appearing to refresh! :D


Current Commands:
     - URequest
               - Brings up the GUI
     - URequest Make
               - Usage: URequest Make You should install wiremod on the server! :D
               - Results in a public request viewable by everyone on the server by using URequest
     - URequest Makep
               - Usage: URequest Makep You should install GCombat on the server! :D
               - Results in a private request viewable by only admins on the server by using URequest
               - Request is preceded by *ADMIN* -
     - URequest Deny
               - Usage: URequest Deny 13630765 I don't think that is necessary.
               - Results in the removal of the request, and notifies the player
               - Is no reason is given the reason is no reason
     - URequest Accept
               - Usage: URequest Accept 13630765 That is a great idea, thanks!
               - Results in the removal of the request, and notifies the player
               - Is no reason is given the reason is no reason


Currently there is not a GUI, only console commands, but it works wonderfully.
I hope to have a GUI ready soon, but as I've mentioned in a later post, I am
taking my time with this one.

This looks a little more polished then the original version. I like it. I'll try it out once you finish the chat commands. Be guaranteed that I'll have suggestions for you. :)

Ugh. What is it with everyone wanting chat commands?
Even if hidden from other users, I dislike them so.

No autocomplete, except for names, and only if you can type the first few ascii characters of a name, in the chat box.
ULib/ULX autocomplete in console just rules.
Meh. Personal preference. So many prefer chat and gui's.

Well from what I see, players just type !request <insert request here>. Most players can't be arsed to figure out the console. That's about the extent of chat commands I would want/need. A GUI window would be better for the admin side of it. However, most of ulx commands have a chat version, so why not? :P

Hey, I really like this addon, I added it to my server. I only have a couple problems, though. The !urequest view doesn't show me everybody's request, only the one I made as a test. I can only view all the requests through the text file that is stored in the data folder of my server. Also, there's a bug where you have to type !urequest delete before you can make your first request ever, because when I do !request make I get the message saying I already have a request in progress. May I suggest that you add the ability to have more than one request per player?

     - Are you an admin on your server?

     - If you don't have a pending request, !urequest delete wont do anything. I may add the ability for more than one request later.

     - URequest Make < Your request here, or leave blank for a gui >
     - URequest Makep < Same as make except only you and the admins can see it. (Useful for reporting people) >
     - URequest Delete <SteamID of the request your want to remove(admin only), or leave blank to remove your own>

Updates:
     - Added chat commands !urequest <make,delete,view, makep>
     - Fixed non-admins not being able to delete their requests from the view screen
     - Fixed players request still showing up if a request was deleted from another method other than the view screen
     - Fixed the format of the view screen, a little prettier you may not notice.
     - Changed the view menu to show all requests that aren't private to everyone
     - Added URequest makep so that you can send a request only you and admins can see
     - Changed chat commands so that they aren't visible in chat.

Yes, I am admin. Though, I am the Owner rank, a custom rank I made myself, could that be the problem?

     - Yes actually, that doesn't pass the IsAdmin() check.
