Make yourself a Traitor? TTT

[[NG]Deadly]

Is there a way to make myself/someone else a traitor on my server without turning on SV_cheats for the whole server?

[Blazyd]

Why would you want that? don't you want it to be random or just be completely unfair and always make yourself a traitor whenever you feel like it?

Actually~ I was wondering the same thing. I was lookin to add that as a function to Pointshop for my TTT server. A person would click it, and the next round would be a Traitor/Detective

[[NG]Deadly]

i wanted to add the function for donor where you can force traitor every 3 rounds. its not to abuse or anything : /. sorry for the confusion.

If you want to ruin your server, go ahead:

concommand.Add("makemetplz", function(p)

	if ( not p:IsAdmin() ) then return end

	p:SetRole(ROLE_TRAITOR)
	SendFullStateUpdate()
	p:ChatPrint("OMG ABUSE")

end)

In general adding the ability to purchase it with points will ruin your servers, and players with already a high point count will be able to 'live off' their points for constant traitor. It may make it fun for a few people, but then the rest of the server won't be picked as traitor and nobody else will play. Meaning you will have a total imbalance of traitors.

Just my two cents.

i wasn't going to make it so they can be traitor every round. i was going to add to pointshop or some sort of donation system where you can only do it every 3 rounds or so.

[tinos]

I've seen this done well on a server, the code allowed you to buy it through the point shop, and made you an official T at round start, instead of instantly when typed in console, which also doesn't give you the weapons. It somehow put you at the top of the queue for random T selection the following round.

Sorry I can't help any more than this, I just wanted to say I've seen it done right without ruining the game before.

It only works with TTT.
SendFullStateUpdate is a function from TTT.
You put the code somewhere in the gamemode, best would be the admin.lua.

Exactly it's not for abuse or to ruin the server. I thought it would be really cool to add it.
