there's a reason it doesn't, andreyyy

the # is used for commands and other GML stuff, iirc, so doing something like /nick #Arctic would make the name "Arctic" go to the next line, and turn all the text arctic blue.
it also messes with the GUI.

Oh right I forgot those, thanks

You can change it to the actual character if you make the chat change it to \# iirc.

Right. It's trivial to use string_replace_all everywhere so that # works properly. I did it.

[t~]

can you put back the part where it you can still see the chat updates without having to spam "t" every ten seconds? i mean, he's a great player and all, but i don't want to be pushy.

After playing on Ironic's Itemserver, which hosts this plugin as of now, I noticed when I hide the chat window I don't have those few "semi-visible" chat messages anymore. I kind of miss that. Is there a way you could add those back, possibly with a very transparent background?

yes plz. when i'm hosting, i can't tell if people joining have chat or not and i always forget to press t. i'll probably revert to lorgans until this gets added

[notarctic]

About the #'s, yes I did do a string_replace_all on # to \# but the chat parses it as /me so I figured it could serve as a /me shortcut

[notarctic]

Doubleposting because I fixed it so I wanna tell you guys I fixed it.

I fixed it

[ajf]

Yo, in 2.7.2 the chat input box is clipped off if I'm using it in 16:9 mode. Could you fix that? Lorgan won't =P

[notarctic]

maybe later, theres still that error i need to fix but i've been putting off

[notarctic]

error fixed

[boynedmaster]

Could you add a simple way for plugin makers to create commands?

[notarctic]

there is, check in the commands files, it's really easy

[boynedmaster]

Yeah I've been messing with the ds_map_add's but it always says it doesn't exist
I've tried tons of things to get it to start when the server does. Here's my current code. It's just a copy of the broadcast code but named something else.

global.addedShitCommands = false;
global.cmdTest = object_add();

object_event_add(global.cmdTest, ev_step, ev_step_normal, '
if(variable_global_exists("clientCommandMap") && !global.addedShitCommands){
   ds_map_add(global.clientCommandMap,"dicks","
      playerId = 255;
      _team = 0;
      if(global.isHost) {
         messageToBroadcast = ds_list_find_value(argument0,1);
         _message = '+"O[CONSOLE] '+string(messageToBroadcast);
         _message = string_replace_all(_message,'#',' ');
         event_user(2);
         event_user(4);
      }
      else if(global.isHost)
      {
         _message = 'OThis command can only be executed by the host.';
         event_user(4);
      }"+'
   ");
   ds_map_add(global.helpMap,"dicks","Sends a broadcast message");
   global.addedShitCommands = true;
}
');

sorry i'm shit at gml

add to either servercommandmap or clientcommandmap, server ones are executed on the serverside no matter who calls it, clientside is executed on the client(aka, the one who called the command), at the top of your plugin should be the check to see if the map exists, then create it if it dosnt exist

[notarctic]

errr, oops

here

Code: [Select]

if !variable_global_exists("<commandMap> or <clientCommandMap>") {global.<commandMap> or <clientCommandMap> = ds_map_create();}

ds_map_add(global.<commandMap> or <clientCommandMap>,"COMMAND NAME","
