How could I check if a player ran a ULX command?
« on: July 03, 2016, 06:33:58 AM »
I'm making a chatbox and I want to make it so when people run commands the text has a icon in front of it, is there a way to check if a ULX command was ran? Or any ideas how I would do such?

A very lazy way would just be to check the first character of the chat message and see if it's an exclamation mark. Of course this will work for any text preceded by !, so if you want it to only work for valid ULX commands you're going to have to go another route.

Doesn't take into account of console commands.

No need, it's a forum, not a ticketing system. :)
Other people might have the same question/issue as you and pick up the discussion or at least be able to search this thread.

Oh, I assumed you wanted to put an icon next to the command itself, not the command's output.
