Player disconnect

Garry's Mod coding
#1

I have a script that says when a player leaves in the chat but I am not sure where to put it. I want to add it to my server running TTT.
[LUA]function GM:PlayerDisconnected(ply)
chat.AddText(Color(255, 0, 0)(ply:Name()…“has left the server.”))
end[/LUA]
Thanks!

#2

add it to cl_init.lua since chat.AddText is a client side function.

#3

Put it in “lua/autorun/server” I have mine saved as ply_steamid.lua




function FirstSpawn( ply )
    PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, ply:Nick().. " has connected with the SteamID: " ..ply:SteamID() )
end
  
hook.Add( "PlayerInitialSpawn", "playerInitialSpawn", FirstSpawn )
 
function PlayerDisconnect( ply )
    PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, ply:Nick().. " has disconnected with the SteamID: " ..ply:SteamID() )
end
  
hook.Add( "PlayerDisconnected", "playerDisconnected", PlayerDisconnect )
hook.Add("ChatText", "ChatText", function( filter, name, text )
	if (filter == 0) then
		chat.AddText(text, "Server:")
	end
end)

Just curious, why did you hook ChatText after?

#5

Richtofen and OP’s won’t work since chat.AddText is only available clientside, so you will need to use a net message.

#6

[lua]
if CLIENT then
net.Receive( “chatAddText”, function()
local tab = net.ReadTable()
chat.AddText( unpack(tab) )
end )
return
end

AddCSLuaFile()
util.AddNetworkString( “chatAddText” )
chat = {}

function chat.AddText( … )
local args = {…}
if IsValid(args[1]) and args[1]:IsPlayer() then
local ply = table.remove(args, 1)
net.Start( “chatAddText” )
net.WriteTable( args )
net.Send( ply )
else
net.Start( “chatAddText” )
net.WriteTable( args )
net.Broadcast()
end
end[/lua]

I get what you guys mean about chat.AddText being client side, but could you please explain what a net message is? :downs:
