TempAdd (v2.4) - Add a user to another group for a set amount of time

[lua_error]

It appears that <player>:IsConnected() is only available serverside, so the code will have to be changed to adapt to that. :S

How to fix this?

How to fix this?

Wait until Mr. President has a fix, I'm afraid.

[MrPresident]

Busy busy weekend!

I'll try and remember to push and update tomorrow. I'm currently not at my workstation.

[MrPresident]

Update pushed.

2.2 should fix these things. Check the changelog in the first post.

[Stickly Man!]

Looks good, Mr. P!

Thanks, keep up the good work! Also going to learn LUA so I can give to the community!

Hi could you see about making it possible to add users via their steamID and not just their username?

Regards,
Dave

Hi, do you think you can make it so that its not only a certain number of min but also like hours,days,weeks,months,years etc. Thank you.

[MrPresident]

I could look at how ULX handles their string time parser. In the mean time just do the math.


1 hour = 60 minutes
1 day = 1440 minutes
1 week = 10080 minutes
1 month = 43200 minutes
1 year = 525600 minutes

Will it possible to add users via SteamID?
It will be very comfortable not to wait player online.

I could look at how ULX handles their string time parser.

I believe there's a specific parameter (ULib.cmds.allowTimeString) you can set on your NumArg to allow it to process timestrings. So, assuming I'm not mistaken (it happens more often than you think ), adding said parameter to the NumArg should be all you need to do. Here's the NumArg for ulx ban:

Code: [Select]

ban:addParam{ type=ULib.cmds.NumArg, hint="minutes, 0 for perma", ULib.cmds.optional, ULib.cmds.allowTimeString, min=0 }
Hope that helps!

[datgregofag]

ban:addParam{ type=ULib.cmds.NumArg, hint="minutes, 0 for perma", ULib.cmds.optional, ULib.cmds.allowTimeString, min=0 }

Stickly man, can you please tell me where to put that and if its in ulxtempuser.lua, can you tell me what line. THANK YOU!

[MrPresident]

Inside of ulxtempuser.lua (line 156 in the most recent update)

Replace

Code: [Select]

tempadduser:addParam{ type=ULib.cmds.NumArg, hint="Time (Minutes)" }

with

Code: [Select]

tempadduser:addParam{ type=ULib.cmds.NumArg, hint="Time (Minutes)", ULib.cmds.allowTimeString }


*Note* I haven't tested this so be weary... If this works let me know and I'll add it as an official update to the addon.

[datgregofag]

THANK YOU THAT WORKS, i mean the  days weeks months thing, IT WORKS. But one more question, will the temporary add still work on a person if i turn server off and then back on. If it doesn't can you please work on a fix. THANK YOU!!!

[MrPresident]

Yeah, it is designed to work across server sessions.
