Thanks for the job , this plugin work fine and very usefull :)

Re: Forbidden weapons
 

thanks..yea..works just fine..i havent encoutered any error yet with this one..will report later if found errors

Re: Forbidden weapons
 

arkshine..not really bugs..just want to ask..i see some boxes in console

http://img33.picoodle.com/img/img33/...wm_089553c.jpg

can you fix that? remove empy spaces..

Re: Forbidden weapons
 

It's not a bug. To do spaces it uses '^t' to create some tabs. It appears that the console doesn't support tabs.

Using a text editor you should see something like :

If you don't like spaces, edit .sma and remove all '^t' . ( LogPlugin() )

Re: Forbidden weapons
 

You should make it crazy-original in punishments for using forbidden weapons.

Like cvars so instead of just blocking the weapon, you could have the users lose 1hp/second or something.

Might just up its approval chance

Re: Forbidden weapons
 

Interesting idea, purple_pixie. I will consider it.

Re: Forbidden weapons
 

I just thought you could have some real fun with that.

Other ideas ( if you wanted to go down that route ) would be announcements like:
"%name% Bought a %weapon%. What a noob!"

Maybe move-speed reduction, or other game-play affects.
Damage reflection? (attacker takes equal damage as his victim [or at least a %])

Obviously I'm just throwing out ideas, I don't have a server to put this on, so you wouldn't be making them to make me happy.
Just thought if you wanted a little more originality, then it's always an option.

Re: Forbidden weapons
 

Great plugin! I do the same already with a few other plugins together for only sniper riffles but preffer to use just one plugin and the ability to restrict per team every weapon. The only thing i miss in this one is that instead of dropping the weapon the plugin first try to block the buy of the weapon or atleast give the money back because on my assault server terrors aren't allowed to by a AWP or AutoSniper but if you come as a new player it would be somewhat hard to let them buy the AWP for $4750 and take it away. Anyway great plugin arkshine!!
