TTT - Easy Scoreboard Ranks

[RDGXTECHX]

And yes it does work with the newest update because it's all nice on my scoreboard :dance:

[rejax]

Would anyone use chat tags if I provided them with this? (As a separate module, like the tag editor)

Would we be able to edit the chat tags like the scoreboard tags? For example using dynamic colors on the chat tag?

You would be able to edit the tags fully.
Dynamic colors are impossible without a custom chatbox - however randomized colors for each message is possible

rejax, the colors of the rank names won't work with the new update. The colors DO show up in the name though.

[Delta7x]

I'm also experiencing an issue in regards to rank colors now being white as opposed to the set color.

They were working yesterday, but now for whatever reason they stopped working.

Yeah. Happened to me since yesterday also.

It's a Garry's Mod bug, it came in the latest hotfix. Robotboy has already fixed it in the update that is coming out soon.

If you want a quick fix, replacing all instances of "SetTextColor" with "SetFGColor" should work :)

Thank you! Youre a life-saver!

I'm getting the same bug that I did when I had certain ulx commands and Tommys dmg logs.

The guns disappear after spawning several bots via "rcon bot" in console.

Any ideas? I've already replaced SetTextColor to SetFGColor, which removed the lua errors I was getting. But this bug seems to persist with this addon.

I get this bug on my servers when I've added: Wyozi's Tag Editor, Tommy's Damage Logs, and some custom ULX commands I found online (including ulx cleanmap, ulx listfriends, and others -- these may not have been the specific issues with the ulx folder I had though)

Any ideas?

It has to do with the damagelog

[rejax]

[QUOTE=YourStalker;47345127]It has to do with the damagelog[/QUOTE]

Or the tag editor - but definitely not this addon.

I would. And I thought they were already provides? I feel dumb.

So rejax I downloaded your program put the ezs_tags.lua in the garrysmod/lua/autorun and I put the TTT_EasyScoreboard.lua in the garrysmod/lua/autorun/client. Then, I made my config. changes to the TTT_EasyScoreboard file and restarted the server. Yet it still looks the same. No rank column, no color changes or anything. Did I place files in the wrong place, do the files no longer work, or do I need to change another file as well? I have tried editing the sb_row, sb_team, and sb_main files by myself and with suggestions from the internet and all that did was erase my scoreboard completely and create errors. I really need this, but I don't see the problem. Thanks in advance! :smile:

[rejax]

You changed the way the scoreboard works when you modified the gamemodes files. The only file you should be modifying is the EZS one.
Reinstall/copy the default scoreboard files from the garrysmod GitHub

[RDGXTECHX]

I'm not sure if I'm the only one experiencing this but name colors won't work with dynamic colors. You can have dynamic colors for the tag but your name color will be white.

Hey rejax, couple of questions.

1. What is the purpose of the admin parameter? I don't see any ulx based purpose that would grant admins access to anything differently. And if I have "highlight_admin 1" in server.cfg it doesn't force any non-admin ranks that I set to "admin=true" to have a gold name. And setting "highlight_admin 0" doesn't force the name to go gold if a rank is set to "admin=true"

2. Is there a grid to follow to determine how many "columns" we can move over? I set mine to 1 for example, and see no difference. I figured it would go past my "Tag" column from a different addon (atags). The icon is your addon, and the Tag is the other addon. I was testing if I could set the column to 1 that it would move the icon to the left of the rank. And if possible, how many columns would I need to set to move the icon to the left of the user's name all the way to the left?

i was curious how this worked also.

The admin=true lets you access the right click menu. If you right click on a name it will give you a nice little menu. Which i happen to use alot.

I already have an addon for that, so i suppose that's a useless parameter for me. Good to know though!

[seabeds]

Tried using it and just got alot of script errors. And when i loaded in, it took no effect on my server.

[Sodak]

It flickers between white and the rank color since the new update!

[RDGXTECHX]

[QUOTE=Sodak;47395139]It flickers between white and the rank color since the new update![/QUOTE]

Change the SetFGColor back to SetTextColor and it'll fix the flickering. That's what I did and it stopped flickering :dance:

The newest GMOD update also fixed the issue with the namecolors not working too... weird... lol

[rejax]

A bunch of stuff accidentaly got broken in this update with the way text is displayed - which affected this addon. Do what RDGXTECHX says to fix it :)

Hey guys

we have a gamer level system on our server and want to show the level of each player in the scoreboard. How can I add an additional column with a label to the scoreboard?
I have medium experience in lua.

Thank you!

[seabeds]

-snip-

[iSmidge]

Having an issue where the rank label doesn't show up but the user ranks does.
The 'Rank' Label is just blank
Happens when i add other scripts that edit the scoreboard too as shown here : [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/toC4NDf.png[/IMG]

I have the default files in the terrortown vgui folder.

[rejax]

What are the other scripts? How do they edit the scoreboard? What are your config settings?

I just purchased a server host ([url]www.nitrous-networks.co.uk[/url]) and the Easy Scoreboard addon doesn't seem to work on the new server I set up.

I used to be running a test server directly from my PC and the addon worked fine.
I'm using just the default files that you linked a download to.

Here is what my server.cfg looks like on my new server:

Any help would be awesome.

Where is the file located? Are there any errors when you join the server? Have you restarted the server?
