APromote GUI

<< < (9/9)

Bryantdl7:
I have APromote working 100% and have for over 6 months now, one user does not auto promote like others, the sound keeps going off but she doesnt promote. Her steam name is
--- Code: ---ThatOneGirl #RoadToUnusal"™
--- End code ---
and my only thought is that the ™ could somehow screw things up? Any ideas?

EDIT: tested this with her, the "™ is throwing apromote off for whatever reason.

Well, then you may be causing issues later.
If you're downloading SVN zips (which you've asked lead4U to do, convert to SVN so you can do that), and then RE-distributing them in a collection, when an addon author goes to update (via svn, or workshop like I recommended), your collection is then out of date. Worst case, it has exploits or major bugs. Best case, it's just missing a model/sound or two.
You should really get/setup a fastDL if you're going to use addon packs that have additional items in them.
Then you just keep your server and DLcache up to date, Gmod clients do the rest.
If not that, then have them download an HTML file with links they can click on to direct them to the SVN and Workshop subscriptions (or here, if you're using releases only available here).

Bryantdl7:
Youre not understanding, serverside addons i rather keep up to date by svn-updating. Im not uploading them to workshop. I dont want users getting serverside addons installed when they click the subscribe all button. Look at that bitly, its steamcommunity you'll hopefully get what i mean.

When Lead and I were creating this, and working out the kinks, we stopped caring about this because we knew it had issues. For some reason, I do remember it not working correctly with unique characters, but at the time I wasn't experienced enough with lua when I requested it to be made back in 2011. The original poster does not come on here anymore, nor does he care about Garry's Mod, so he kinda gave me the responsibility to take care of it.

I don't actually know how to really fix this, because the way he made it was kinda messy (imo). So, I've decided that... the issue is rare enough to not be fixed, nor has anyone else complained about this issue, so it may be unique to your server, or just actually messed up within the addon.

Edit:
My version of it might be the updated version of it that I worked on when he handed me the project over. Here -> http://forums.ulyssesmod.net/index.php/topic,6791.0
