Something with Chat

[R@Rdeathmatch]

[b]You know ween you connect on a server and somethimes in chat appears something like " Join to
[url]www.google.ro[/url] " And I make this Thread becouse I can't fix it [/b]

timer.Create( "Delay", 20, 0, function()
or k,v in pairs( player.GetAll() ) do
v:ChatPrint( "Join ...whatever" )
end
end )

[b]The problem is cause this think don't work , and all the time ween I add this then I restart the server the first line disappear.
I put it on "garrysmod/lua/autorun/server/ " and I try to " garrysmod/lua/autorun/server " but none went [/b]

Did you just seriously write the line numbers yourself?
[LUA]timer.Create("JGDelay", 20, 0, function()
for _, ply in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
ply:ChatPrint("Joing to www.google.ro")
end
end)[/LUA]

In the gamemode you could do:

[lua]
function SayToAll(arg) --When this function is run

for _, v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do --Get all players and
v:ChatPrint(""..arg.."") --Print whatever the string is in their chat boxes

end

end

function WebsiteJoin()
timer.Simple(100, WebsiteJoin)
SayToAll("Join at google.ro to become a part of the community!")
end

hook.Add("Initialize", "WebsiteMessage", WebsiteJoin)

[/lua]

[Crap-Head]

Put it in init.lua

[cis.joshb]

And you can use the
[lua]
SayToAll(arg)
[/lua]
function whenever you need to say something to everyone.

Don't put it in init.lua. That's silly.

Make a file lua/autorun/server/advert.lua.

Inside put:
[lua]
--180 sec = 3 min
timer.Create("adverttimer", 180, 0, function()
for k, v in ipairs(player.GetAll()) do
v:ChatPrint("Go to [url]www.lemonparty.org[/url] and join the community!")
end
end);

Thx I will try

[cis.joshb]

What?

[editline]5th April 2011[/editline]

My SayToAll should have ipairs, not pairs I think.

In this case, it doesn't matter. ipairs only works in cases where you got numerical indexes, and it goes from 1-2-3-4-5-6.... It does make the numbers come in order, but who cares if someone gets their message a split second before another gets it?

There I make a post but I put in in [QUOTE] this was the problem why you don't see it !

Thanks this it work !! And I want to ask you another think , how can I color what he print ??
And I want to ask what make the " 0 " = timer.Create("adverttimer", 180, 0, function() = the 180 is the time and 0 is ?

You can't change the print colour, the blue means its being printed serverside, the orange clientside.

You need to check the wiki before you make questions, people seem way less annoying that way, the third argument is the loop number, how many times the timer will repeat, 0 means infinite times.

I recommend you bookmark this page in your browser: [url]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/?title=Lua[/url] use the search bar to the right.

If you read the [b][url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/?title=Timer.Create]Timer.Create [img]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/favicon.ico[/img][/url][/b] page you'll see the third argument is repetitions. 0 meaning never ending timer which can only be stopped manually.

[QUOTE=Donkie;29011723]who cares if someone gets their message a split second before another gets it?[/QUOTE]

All network data is sent per Tick, meaning if I call chatprint x times before the next tick, they will be sent at the same time.
