sm_cancelvote and admin_overrides

Hi all,

Before I explain my problem, I'm going to note that I'm running Metamod Source 1.8 and Sourcemod 1.3.

In admin_overrides.cfg, my servers have
"sm_cancelvote" "v"

Result: Admins in a group with flags "abprtu" can still use !cancelvote

So, I added an override to the same admin group in my admin_groups.cfg:
Overrides
{
"sm_cancelvote" "deny"
}

Result: Admins in this group can still use !cancelvote

Is there somewhere else that could be overriding these settings, or is this a Sourcemod bug?

Re: sm_cancelvote and admin_overrides

First of all:rtfm:
SourceMod adminflags:
Admin flags = abcdefghijklmn
custom flags = opqrst
Magically enables all flags = z

There is no flags "u" "v". If you add those letter, they are same as "" (no-flag).

What you did :arrow: you added no-flag in admin_overrides.cfg
"sm_cancelvote" "v"
This why they can cancelvote and whole server, public players can use also (non-flaged players) :)
You made accidentally sm_cancelvote to public command.

If you add flag="u" to admins/group, server get errors to SourceMod logs

Code:

L 02/15/2010 - 10:54:06: SourceMod error session started

L 02/15/2010 - 10:54:06: Info (map "cs_office") (file "errors_20100215.log")

L 02/15/2010 - 10:54:06: [admin-flatfile.smx] Error(s) detected parsing addons\sourcemod\configs\admins.cfg

L 02/15/2010 - 10:54:06: [admin-flatfile.smx]  (line 42) Invalid flag detected: u

L 02/15/2010 - 10:54:16: Error log file session closed.

*edit
add more adminflags go edit
...addons\sourcemod\configs\admin_levels.cfg

How override command to other flag and disabled to group :!:
basecommands.smx
ADMFLAG_VOTE, "sm_cancelvote" = "k"
Is original flag, built in plugin.

Example 1:
You want change sm_cancelvote flag to customflag = q
in ...addons\sourcemod\configs\admin_overrides.c fg
(I erase guidelines/description to short code)

Code:

Overrides

{

        "sm_cancelvote"        "q"

}

Now Admins flagged "k" can't access this command anymore
Admins flagged "q" can access this command now
Admins added group "Group allow command"(Example 3) can access this command now, even admins flagged ="k"(admin_simple.ini or admins.cfg)

Example 2:
You want deny sm_cancelvote from group (nothing has been added to admin_overrides.cfg)
in ...addons\sourcemod\configs\admin_groups.cfg
(I erase guidelines/description to short code)

Code:

Groups

{

    "Group deny command"

    {

        Overrides

        {

        "sm_cancelvote"        "deny"

        }

        "flags"            "abk"

        "immunity"        "5"

    }

}

Now every player who have added this group "Group deny command" can't access this command anymore, even admins flagged="k"(admin_simple.ini or admins.cfg)
Admins flagged "k" can access this command, if not added this group.

Example 3:
You want change sm_cancelvote flag to customflag = q
Do :arrow: Example 1
You want allow sm_cancelvote to specified players
in ...addons\sourcemod\configs\admin_groups.cfg
(I erase guidelines/description to short code)

Code:

Groups

{

    "Group allow command"

    {

        Overrides

        {

        "sm_cancelvote"        "allow"

        }

        "flags"            "abk"

        "immunity"        "5"

    }

}

Now every player who have added this group "Group allow command" can access this command, even admins not flagged="q"(admin_simple.ini or admins.cfg)
Admins flagged "k" can't access this command, if not added this group.
Admins flagged "q" can access this command now

Admins flagged = "z" can't be override (deny/allow) commands. He is GOD.
Not affect admin_groups.cfg and admin_overrides.cfg

Erase that "sm_cancelvote" "v"
and remove flag-"u", there is no those letters use in SourceMod

You don't need "deny" command if not added "k"-flag in group.

But if you start change sm_cancelvote flag
- Add right letter in admin_overrides.cfg (abcdefghijklmnopqrst z)
- And if group have also same flag what you have change, make correct code.
admin_groups.cfg

Code:

Groups

{

    "Group name"

    {

        Overrides

        {

        "sm_cancelvote"        "deny"

        }

        "flags"            "abprt"

        "immunity"        "5"

    }

}

Re: sm_cancelvote and admin_overrides

OK, I'll change it to another flag. I'm not the admin who originally set it up, and I just assumed they knew what they were doing when inventing new flags.

Re: sm_cancelvote and admin_overrides

I find this thread amusing. Powerlord and Bacardi, two people who always give advice on scripting questions.

Yes, I realize this was a necro. Couldn't help it. Found this after Gooogling admin_overrides.cfg (to make sure I had the filename right).

Re: sm_cancelvote and admin_overrides

woh... would those my post even correct after few years ^^
Didn't know much at that time....
