Echo Admin Commands to Admins only
« on: January 25, 2013, 04:08:45 PM »
Is there something that can currently do this, or can we please, have it implemented into ULX?

* JamminR sighs deeply.
* JamminR misses the days when it seemed like 1 in 10 actually looked and searched before asking questions.
* JamminR thinks it is now more like 1 in 30.

; Echo modes:
; 0 - OFF No output to any players when an admin command is used
; 1 - ANONYMOUS Output to players without access to see who used the command (admins by default) similar to "(Someone) slapped Bob with 0 damage"
; 2 - FULL Output to players similar to "Foo slapped Bob with 0 damage"


I don't see the mode which explicitly only echoes to ADMINs and nobody else.

when using !<command>, they will echo to players chat, at the least, as the text you typed.
Try mode 0. If it works, great. If not, use the console ulx commands.

And my suggestion was to rather; instead of making it echo !kick, to make it echo !kick AND to Admins (You) kicked (Someone) for Blah, rather than just seeing !kick.

I'm pretty sure that's what this option is-- Players without access (there's an access tag you can give groups for this) will see "(Someone) kicked Bob!" where admins will see "Person kicked Bob!". If you don't want the players seeing "(Someone) kicked Bob!", then I don't think we have an option for that.

The chat command will show up always for just about every command, I believe.

That's what I'm looking for, for it to say (Admin) kicked Bob; but not to echo (Someone) Kicked bob to non admins.

Do you think you could implement this?

I imagine it would be easy, but, seeing how this is in Megiddo's area of code, I'd have to run it by him first :P I shall keep it in mind though.

i cant because it would create a fork and i dont want that and it's more of a personal preference at this point so it might involve adding convar for it so people can change it to anonymous or something lol

I've talked to Megiddo about this, and he seems fine with it, so we will be adding this feature (time permitted). I need to get an issue created on our issues page as well, but.. for now just know that it's on our radar!

The eventual echo modes will end up something like this:
Code: [Select]
; Echo modes:
; 0 - OFF No output to any players when an admin command is used
; 1 - ADMINS Output to admins only.
; 2 - ANONYMOUS Output to players without access to see who used the command (admins by default) similar to "(Someone) slapped Bob with 0 damage"
; 3 - FULL Output to players similar to "Foo slapped Bob with 0 damage"

Would it not be easier/more backwards compatible for us to just 'add' the option.
Leave current 0,1,2 as is, and add the option 3?
