Custom Voice Channels

Description:
This is a Voice Channel plugin where you can create your own voice channels, and players can join them by typing /channel. They cannot hear anybody who is in a different channel than they are in, and they cannot talk to anybody that they are in a different channel than they are in.

They are auto-prompted for a channel when they enter the server.

A text file is provided with a list of default channels. You can change them by just changing the list of channels that you would like. People are defaulted to the first channel in the list.

Client Commands:
/channel - Opens channel menu.

CVars:
cvc_display_players <0/1> <default:1> - Display how many players are in each channel.
cvc_admin_voice <0/1> <default: 0> - If everybody hears when an admin speaks
cvc_display_on_connect <0/1> <default:0> - Whether or not to display the channels menu on connect.

Re: Custom Voice Channels

Copy + Paste fail :)

Fixed.

Re: Custom Voice Channels

Sweet nikhilgupta345: you're the man.

I will test it ASAP. I assume this will work for all Mods correct ?

Re: Custom Voice Channels

Code:

    add( szFileName, charsmax( szFileName ), "\channels.ini" );

Code:

    add( szFileName, charsmax( szFileName ), "/channels.ini" );

In file parsing, empty lines or commented lines checks wouldn't hurt :)
Also, you may send trim and remove_quotes after having retrieved line content.

Re: Custom Voice Channels

@ConnorMcLeod: Fixed. Also added what you suggested. Thanks :)

Commented the code a little as well.

There is no mod specific code so it should work on most HL1 mods. CS and DOD for sure.

Re: Custom Voice Channels

Suggestion: Add an option, to put a password on the specific channel.

In channels.ini, after the name of the channel the password and in-game, after selecting the channel you want, to prompt a password.

Good job.
