AAFK V_3.1 : Anti-AFK system for Garry's Mod

[JamminR]

Bryan, what commands do you want him to integrate?
There are no commands, only console variables, which are totally different than commands.

As for double, it's answered on first page of posts.

Also, it prints twice because the first is the FancyLog. Which will only display if you have logecho on. The second is the notification I added to show to all connected players when a player goes in and out of afk. If you want to disable the second one, look in the code for anywhere you see ulib.tsayColor and comment it out.

Am I the only one that has no idea how to download this???

Nvm it was bugged and the attachment file didn't show up.
I see it now
And btw, it doesn't work

[Bryantdl7]

Put it in lua/autorun

[JasonMan34]

Put it in lua/autorun

Actually I just put it in the lua/ulx/modules/sh...
I thought it didn't work because I tested it in a wrong way

[Bryantdl7]

Yeah, this has no affect on ULX, and can even run without it.

I've noticed the DrawAFKStatus() function, which looks like it's supposed to draw something above players, but I can't see anything above/around players that go AFK. Is it supposed to work?

Mr. P please update this if you can! This is really useful, and needs to be updated

[MrPresident]

What's wrong with it currently? I was unaware that it was broken.

Edited:

perhaps this is whats wrong with it... -_-

been lingering for a while on these forums bout time I joined.

heres the error message, server didn't like this at all!

[ERROR] lua/autorun/aafk.lua:375: Tried to use a NULL entity!
    1.GetAnges - [C]:-1
       2.unknown lua/autorun/aafk.lua:375

getting similar errors for lua/ulx/modules/sh directory as well, therefore thusly, I conclude said file is broken kind sir. (puff puff)

-a lot of us server owners have had updates recent to the last time THIS particular addon was updated. and some of us aren't lua geniouses and cant fix it ourselves. Prognosis = update: confirmed. ^_^

[MrPresident]

The latest gmod update did change the way entities are handled. I'll have to take a look. Thanks for the error. It helps.

always glad to help... and look forward to working with you guys.

Edit:
if you need anything else let me know, my server was throwing a tantrum.

[Mates]

My version of aafk.lua only has about 190 lines, so I am kinda surprised by the

[ERROR] lua/autorun/aafk.lua:375: Tried to use a NULL entity!

I am sort of new to LUA and this forum too, programmer for about 4 years, I'll do my best to help as well.

Trust me its not the only error I get... there are about three total, but they all tell me the same thing.

Me: "hey server, check this out, try running this new script."
Server: "What the <censor> is this? what am I supposed to do with it?"

it reads, it runs, it follows the command structure, all commands work properly. but it's function is bugged somehow and does not follow up.
EXAMPLE: console: aafk_enabled 1
                Server responds with "something is creating script errors" (error msg) Admin: Chaoswolf has enabled AFK

Then nothing just an ongoing plethora of admin console errors telling me I cant read this . and the server console spitting the taste out its mouth with the script error, the only difference is the directory.

Edit:

here are the other two Errors:


[ERROR] LuaCmd:1: attempt to call method 'AddNotify' (a nil value)
  1. unknown - LuaCmd:1

[ERROR] lua/autorun/aafk.lua:340 BadArgument #2 to 'SetNetoworkedInt' (number expected, got nil)
   1. SetNetworkedInt - [C]:-1     
      2. unknown lua/autorun/aafk.lua:340

[ChaosWolf]
