(ADMIN) Displayed When User Votekicks

[Mr.Bean]

Hello, I have my groups setup so normal users can use !votekick.
When they do this command it comes up in chat saying something like "(ADMIN) Player started votekick".
I would like to know if it's possible to remove the "(ADMIN)" out of this message so that players don't think that this user has suddenly become an admin.

Thanks for any help.

Not possible to remove that message easily.

Find a good text editor that counts/shows line numbers.
Open file \addons\ulx\lua\ulx\modules\vote.lua
Find line 288 (as of current SVN). Should look like

Code: [Select]

ulx.logUserAct( ply, target, "#A started a votekick against #T." )

Change it to

Code: [Select]

ulx.logUserAct( ply, target, ply:Nick() .. " started a votekick against #T." )

Now, that's quick, dirty, will never show if the person starting the vote was an admin or not, won't show if you used/have silent log mode enabled, unknown to me what happens if console starts a vote, and may get overwritten during future updates.

Megiddo, now that I review our log gsub's, the next version might be a good idea to start using the new GetGroup (or whatever the new ULib-get-top-group command will be) to replace [Admin] with [<Groupname>]

That would help for custom group commands in the future.

Added to the todo list!

All, I've just committed revision 61 to the SVN repo. It should now show what group people are in for logged actions.
This will allow for commands in any group, not just an 'admin' one.

Due to the late hour, I only tested on a ded server with superadmin access.
Let me know if you see any issues.
