Cexec
« on: April 30, 2007, 01:38:47 PM »
Does ulx cexec use standard console commands?  I have seen some people join my server with really horrible names, and i have tried using ulx cexec to change their name, but it never seems to do anything.

ulx cexec "***" name "^&%"

Is that done right, or can you not do this?

Code: [Select]
] ulx cexec me name blah
(ADMIN) Megiddo ran "name blah" on Megiddo
Megiddo changed name to blah

Worked fine for me. Not sure what your problem might be.

Well i just tried it out some more, and the command only works when:
rcon ulx cexec "playername" name "Test"

And it seems to work with partial names in the first name slot, and you don't need ""

I am a superadmin on the server, why must i use rcon?

I wasn't using rcon on my server, nor is it a listen server. Does your target user have a space in their name?

Yes they did, i have tried with and without quotes around the name.

ulx cexec "test test" name "testtest"

Or should i just do:

ulx cexec test name testtest


cause it seems to recognized parts of names.

It does parts of names yes, but it shouldn't matter if you're using quotes.

The only time it will matter if you use quotes is when you use a "full name" with spaces in it. So, yes, quotes are required if you have a space.
Partial with no space, then no.
