Title: Silent chat.
Post by: Chrissy on December 31, 2013, 07:18:53 AM

Hi,
I'm currently trying to work some commands into being silent. I can get them to do the whole

Code: [Select]

(SILENT) Chrissy ran Y on Z  thing however you can still see

Code: [Select]

Chrissy: !cexec Y ZI know !spectate already does not hide in chat, what hook is called to hide it from chat?
Thanks

How about you use the console command instead? Or the ULX menu.
Every ULX chat command also has a console command that works the same way, "!cexec" would be "ulx cexec" in console.

Or, if you really want to, use the hook PlayerSay (http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/GM/PlayerSay) and return empty quotes, if it finds "!cexec" in the first 6 letters.

Cobalt suggested something a lot better.

local cexec = ulx.command( CATEGORY_NAME, "ulx cexec", ulx.cexec, "!cexec", true )
Add the true to hide the chat command.

I had no idea that's a thing.

Though the ULX command setup does a bit of combo work (category setup, etc), the 'silent' boolean is explained here.
