Title: Advert Variables
Post by: alig96 on February 07, 2013, 03:26:58 AM

Hey there, recently got a 24/7 server on the go, and I don't plan on being on for the same amount of time, so I'm going have several mods or admins looking after it while I'm not on.

So basically I want to add an advert that says "Admins online: <list of online admins>" and the same for the mods. Is it possible to get the lists and comma delaminate them?

Unfortunately this is not possible at the moment. It does sound like a potentially useful feature (and fairly simple to implement), and I'll run it past Megiddo to see what he thinks.

Otherwise, you can accomplish something similar by making a very simple lua script like the following (not tested, doing this off the top of my head :P )

Code: [Select]

local function displayAdmins()
local admins = {}
for _, ply in ipairs(player.GetAll()) do
if ply:IsUserGroup("admin") then
table.insert{ admins, ply:Nick() }
end
end
ULib.tsayColor( _, true, Color( 255, 0, 0), "Admins online: " .. table.concat( admins, ", " ) )
timer.Simple( 100, displayAdmins )
end
timer.Simple( 100, displayAdmins )
