DarkRP 2.4.X

[Drakehawke]

Not sure if this would be doing too much, but how about a medic console as well, where a player can type /medic and the medic can go to his console and find the location of the injured player similar to /911.

Also, could we have /911 work so it doesn't require you to be injured? Often people want to use it when they're been broken in to and can't because they haven't been hurt yet.

Hey, Falco, main.lua near line 1145 in the BuyAmmo function, shouldn't there be a return in:
[lua] if args ~= "rifle" and args ~= "shotgun" and args ~= "pistol" then
Notify(ply, 1, 4, string.format(LANGUAGE.unavailable, "ammo"))
end[/lua]
Right now, if you type an argument of, let's say rilfe, you'll get the messages:
"This ammo is unavailable"
"You have bought a rilfe for $0".

[editline]12:24AM[/editline]

Also, one more thing, you might want to consider trimming spaces when you are capturing the length of strings for RPNames and custom jobs. For example, trying something like
[lua] local len = string.len(args:gsub("^%s*", ""))[/lua]

Hey, Falco, if you don't mind one more annoyance, I have also found a minor bug in FPP (redundant messages). When you turn on the Whitelist, and you attempt to spawn a large prop not on the white list, you get 2 messages, "Your prop is ghosted because it is too big. Interract with it to unghost it.", and "The model of this entity is not in the white list!"

That's pretty nice Drakehawke. You might want to save the door information too (you probably already thought of that).

I can't decide whether or not to have something similar in SeriousRP because sometimes you do need to lose the positions of props.

How are you setting the owner if someone doesn't reconnect after the server crash? do those props just not respawn?

I haven't done it for props, I wasn't really up to figuring out how to get information about constraints and stuff, when there's something that can do pretty much the same thing, Adv Dupe. Also, I've noticed that Adv Dupe lags the server slightly when someone saves a very large contraption/building, so I don't think this would be very efficient writing information on every prop and constraint to a file every 30 seconds.

How it works is every 30 seconds it gets information about the entities I specify, puts it in a table, encodes it with GLON then writes it into a .txt on the server, then after the 300 second timer is up it cycles through the table of previous entities, and if the entities class is one of the entities that has an owner, it starts another loop through player.GetAll(), if the SteamID that was recorded in the previous table as the owner of that entity, matches one in player.GetAll() it creates the entity and sets the owner to that player.

I'd post the code but it's not really finished yet, I've only tried it with one player (me) on a listen server, gonna put it on my dedicated one later and see if it all works.

[editline]11:16PM[/editline]

Door information would be a good idea, but what if someone rejoins before the player who owns the door, and buys it?

I guess I'd have to set all the previously owned doors as unownable, then set them as owned when the 300 seconds is up, if the players rejoined.

And then there's doors with mutliple owners.

It would be possible, but it'd probably need quite a bit of work and I'm working on a lot of other stuff at the moment, maybe in the future I'll consider it.

I was thinking maybe blank everyone's screens on restore until the props are back in-place (or disable movement and put a message on-screen about "recovering game")

[QUOTE=ph:lxyz;23601101]I was thinking maybe blank everyone's screens on restore until the props are back in-place (or disable movement and put a message on-screen about "recovering game")[/QUOTE]

Doesn't solve the problem of getting/writing all the prop/constraint info to a file every 30 seconds.

Just put it on my dedicated server, it works, for some reason the timer on the HUD won't show though, but the main part of it works.

Hit a glitch involving entity limits, if you get your past two money printers restored it doesn't recognise them in the limits if you want to buy more.

Got an idea of getting around it, shall fix it in the morning.

util.lua lines 27-31:

Why not use:

filter:AddPlayer(v)
end

- Nevermind I won't insult you with my questions when I could just learn to do it myself.-

Thanks again Falco on the lua website. It just helped me figure out my problem.

[url=http://code.google.com/p/darkrp/source/browse/trunk/gamemode/showteamtabs.lua#650]showteamtabs.lua:650[/url]

[lua] for k,v in pairs(DarkRPEntities) do
if not v.allowed or (type(v.allowed) == "table" and table.HasValue(v.allowed, LocalPlayer():Team())) then
local cmdname = string.gsub(v.ent, " ", "_")

if tobool(GetConVarNumber("disable"..cmdname)) then return end

local price = GetConVarNumber(cmdname.."_price")
if price == 0 then
price = v.price
end
AddEntIcon(v.model, "Buy a " .. v.name .." " .. CUR .. price, v.cmd)
end
end[/lua]

Shouldn't you be breaking, not returning? Returning will end the function that builds the entire Entities tab.

Also, in practice, it does break the Entities tab when you have something disabled.

Someone once suggested having local voice chat that doesn't penetrate walls or buildings, I have a theory as to how you could do this, when a player speaks, run a trace from the player speaking to all the people in his voice radius, if the trace hits the world then that player hears the persons voice very quietly, or not at all. Would it work?

If this worked, then in theory, wouldnt it lag the hell out of a server if there are many people using voicechat?

Not really, traces are very efficient

This function was removed due to instability issues with the engine (I think).

Ever since the last revision, Whenever someone tries to use Weld or a couple other tools, it says that the tool is restricted and that I'm on the wrong team. I never restricted weld. I did restrict PCMod tools to my PC Tech job. I triple-checked all the FPP tool restriction list, and Weld isn't there. Anyone else having this problem or have a fix?

[Dysentery]

how do i make it so i can let "gold members" be a certain job?

there's 0, 1, and 2 for users, admin and superadmin but i want to make a gold member number, how would i do that?

What does it say exactly when you try to use it?

[Abderian]

I've got a quick question, is it possible to change the spawn area for particular classes, such as making the mayor spawn in his mayoral office?

[doctorjohndoria]

[QUOTE=Drakehawke;23681191]What does it say exactly when you try to use it?[/QUOTE]

"Toolgun restricted! incorrect team!"

[Drakehawke]

[QUOTE=Abderian;23681780]I've got a quick question, is it possible to change the spawn area for particular classes, such as making the mayor spawn in his mayoral office?[/QUOTE]

Yes, /setspawn then the command you use to become the team, e.g. /setspawn mayor or /setspawn cp.

You then can use /addspawn to make more than 1 spawn for each class.

It will set the spawn as where your player is at the moment.

[editline]04:42PM[/editline]

[QUOTE=doctorjohndorian;23683669]"Toolgun restricted! incorrect team!"[/QUOTE]

It means you've ticked one of the jobs on the tool restriction page, so the tools restricted to that job only.

[Kaleb]

Ok I found some usefull scripts that people have asked for through this thread and many other places. Hopefully this can be useful for some of you.

[release][b]How to make commands superadmin and not admin[/b]

[b]Step 1:[/b]
In [b]admincc.lua[/b] around line 31, it says

[lua]if ply:EntIndex() ~= 0 and not ply:HasPriv(ADMIN) then[/lua]

Change it to this:

[lua]if ply:EntIndex() ~= 0 and not ply:IsSuperAdmin() then[/lua]

[b]Step 2:[/b]
Find this
[lua]if (ply:EntIndex() ~= 0 and not DB.HasPriv(ply, ADMIN)) or (togglecmd.superadmin and not ply:IsSuperAdmin()) then[/lua]

And Change it to:

[lua]if (ply:EntIndex() ~= 0 and not ply:IsSuperAdmin()) or (togglecmd.superadmin and not ply:IsSuperAdmin()) then[/lua]

[b]How to add VIP jobs using ULX:[/b]

Alright, First, You gotta make a ULX Group. If you have ULX, Type this to make a VIP group in-game:

[b]ulx addgroup VIP[/b]

Once you done that, You created your group. Now, Go to player.lua in the DarkRP folder, and find line 234. Right under that citizen code, Add this and edit it:
[lua]
if t == TEAM_YOURCLASS
and !self:IsUserGroup("VIP") and not self:IsAdmin()
then Notify(self, 1, 4, string.format("You must be a VIP to be this job."))
return
end [/lua]

After you added that with the class you want to only be a VIP job, In game when you select that class if the player is not a VIP or an admin, It should pop up with the message: "You must be a VIP to be this job.[/release]

Hope this helped.
