karma dispenser

[easer7]

Would it be possible to write a script that would allow admins to set karma for other people?

[Pandaman09]

Because no one answered you, Yes you can allow admins to set karma, however; I will not just give you the code. If you would like to figure it out yourself, you can go through the TTT code and check "karma.lua" in "gamemodes/terrortown/gamemode/" If you find what your looking for, but get stuck on your coding you can post what you have and we/I can help you.

Thanks panda =D

I dont seem to have the file "Gamemode" in my terrortown folder

[Chessnut]

That's because it is included in the gcf (assuming you are running a listen server), just recreate the folders it should be in.

[Pandaman09]

you could also go to ttt.badking.net and download it, it is under the release tab

[easer7]

The only thing that I found that seems like it might help at all are karma.givereward but that reward is only given if a traitor is killed. Maybe set live karma?

Since no one else seems willing, the function to set karma is player:SetLiveKarma and use :SetBaseKarma if you want it to update on the scoreboard.

Since no one is willing, there is a feature i personally tend to use to select a player...

concommand.Add("ttt_setkarma",function(p,c,a)
if not p:IsValid() or p:IsAdmin() then
local d = string.lower(a[1] or "")
local kam = a[2] or 1000
for k,v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do if string.find(string.lower(v:Nick()),d) then
v:SetLiveKarma(kam)
v:SetBaseKarma(kam)
end
end
end
end)

[find me]

Player Joined hook:
Player.Karma = 0

Player Check Karma function:
if Player.Karma then
return Player.Karma
else
return 0
end

Player Set Karma function:
Player.Karma = (Amount)

Then just make sure if you have a console command that sets karma, check if the player running it is an admin.

If you are new to lua and would like to try, I would suggest using [URL="http://maurits.tv/data/garrysmod/wiki/wiki.garrysmod.com/index8f6d.html"]Entity:GetNetworkedInt( Name )[/URL]
This will allow you to call it to show on a scoreboards as well.

Shouldn't you use tonumber?

[easer7]

So what would be the code then?

[Chessnut]

[lua]
concommand.Add("ttt_setkarma", function(client, command, arguments)
if ( IsValid(client) and client:IsAdmin() ) then
if (!arguments[1]) then
client:ChatPrint("Missing name!");

return;
elseif (!arguments[2]) then
client:ChatPrint("Missing amount!");

return;
end;

local name = string.lower(arguments[1]);
local amount = tonumber(arguments[2]) or 1000;

for k, v in pairs( player.GetAll() ) do
if ( string.find(string.lower( v:Name() ), name) ) then
v:SetLiveKarma(amount);
v:SetBaseKarma(amount);
end;
end;
end;
end);[/lua]

[easer7]

and would there be a client hook?

[Chessnut]

No, the SetLiveKarma function already networks it.

[easer7]

So say I wanted to set the karma for a player named Joe to 1000.

I would type:
ttt_setkarma Joe 1000
