AutoPromote

[falon]

I'm using ulx / ulib SVN, and utime 1.4 and some other stuff, but it wont promote for me at all :x i dont see any errors or anything printed in console of the server so yeah :/ any help would be greatly appreciated

[Megiddo]

I've been watching it all day, but there are no errors so far, but i just remembered, I don't have a cl_utime.lua for my utime, could that cause the problem?

If you don't have a cl_utime for your utime, you're not running utime.

It still records time though, if you join my server, you won't see what the time is, but you still get time. I'm using UTimeM if it makes any difference.

[falon]

thats probly why your auto promote isnt working, im using just regular utime :x but mine still isnt working either

[someone920]

it works fine with either utime, it's been working till garry updated last week

[falon]

Then it might need a re-code, but i doubt thatl happen anytime soon, ive been trying to get ahold of smithy :x

[someone920]

Okay, i just tried using the cl_utime now, still no dice. No errors, or anything.

[falon]

That sucks :x, i may have a friend recode it or something

[Aaron113]

Mine seems to be working just fine.

[falon]

Mind posting your code? and which version of utime / ulib / ulx you use?

[Warstories]

Unless there was an update on it, that is not even close to how your suppose to do it.

Code: [Select]

promotes = {
{ hours =2, group = "builder", name = "Builder" },
{ hours = 10, group = "regular", name = "Regular" },
{ hours = 20, group = "lightlyrespected", name = "Lightly Respected" },
{ hours = 40, group = "moderatlyrespected", name = "Moderately Respected" },
{ hours = 60, group = "highlyrespected", name = "Highly Respected" },
{ hours = 100, group = "dedicatedmember", name = "Dedicated Member" }
}
And make sure you use the working code that someone920 gave me.

Can i have the group.txt file for this and also the uteam.txt file for this please and thank you

You either have to ask tucker on the previous page for these or make them yourself.  Unless he just didn't respond I think tucker never came back, which means he probably won't come back.  I find these really easy but am not going to make it when I'm not going to use it.

If you PM tucker (I'm not sure if he gets emailed) he may respond.




EDIT: You do not need UTeam to have this if that is why you asked for both.  UTeam would be really simple and easy to set up.  Especially with the new built in UTime, which I should use on my server instead of the separate addon.

hey umm i DO see an error in my console (i run my own server yes, yes i do) and it is this...
addons\autopromote\lua\ulx\modules\autopromote.lua:75: '<eof>' expected near 'end'
please help

[JamminR]

'<eof>' expected near 'end'

This usually means you're either missing a " or , or { or } in your promotions table, or have one too many of any, or combo of all the above.

This is what I got. Still nothing. Help would be nice. Thanks.
