ULX custom command
« on: January 09, 2015, 03:06:58 PM »
I was trying to figure out how to make a command that when you type "!textures" would either copy a link to your clip board and say "Link copied to clipboard" or it would open the page in the steam browser. I have no idea how i would do this, if anybody could help that would be much appreciated!

gui.OpenURL() is your friend.
You'd probably also want to use the Net library, as gui.OpenURL() is a client-side function.

You can check out my ULX command template for a base on which to write your code.

You can also use this (clientside) to set a players clipboard.
