How to disable the (*) which targets everyone?

[thegtz]

I would like to disable * for commands so that the person using the command has to type the person's name in instead of just using * to target everyone. Is this possible?

Yes, comment out or delete line 110 in ulib/lua/ulib/shared/player.lua.

maybe it would be useful to add an access flag: Something like ulx allowaccessgroups. Players with this flag would be allowed to target using *, %, and ^ where players without would have to type names.

Meg/Stick, Anyway to use "can_target" and "!*" and not have ULX block running commands on everyone?
(That's hard to explain but I hope you get what I'm saying)
I mean, if one were to add that now, I presume ULX would block targeting all players, not just the "*" command.
Is there any string one could add to prevent using "*" as a command?

Thats pretty much what I want to be able to do or maybe even remove it from certain commands.

MrP's suggestion would work, but it would globally affect a player.

Not possible in the way it's done right now JamminR, as keywords are always expanded when evaluated. I can't think of any logical way to break this rule in the permission strings at the moment...

It's all or none with that edit at the moment, thegtz.
