[TF2] Fake Item Messages
 

Description:

Allows admins to print fake item found messages to chat.

For example...
http://content.screencast.com/users/...5dc/winrar.png

Now supports custom text!
http://content.screencast.com/users/...01-08_1001.png

Commands:

• sm_fakeitem <client> <item index> [quality] [method]
  • <Client> = Client or userid of the target player
  • <Item Index> = The desired item's definition index from items_game.txt or in a better format here
    
  • [Quality] = Normal / Genuine / olive / Vintage / orange / Unusual / Unique / Community / Valve / Selfmade / Customized Haunted.
    Numbers will also work.
  • [Method] = Found / Craft / Trade / Buy / Uncrate / Gift / Earned / Refund / Wrapped. Numbers 0-10 also work.
    
    Example: "sm_fakeitem @me 99 vintage buy" would print DarthNinja has purchased: Vintage Tyrants Helm
    
    
• sm_fakeitem2 <client> <method> <item text>
  • <Client> = Client or userid of the target player
  • <Method> = Found / Craft / Trade / Buy / Uncrate / Gift / Earned / Refund / Wrapped / Any custom text you want.
  • <Item Text> = Anything you care to think up, must be wrapped in quotes.
    
    Example: sm_fakeitem2 @me gift "A Banana" would print DarthNinja has received a gift: A Banana
    sm_fakeitem2 @me crate "A Fennec" would print DarthNinja has unboxed: A Fennec
    
    The item name will use the color of the last item found, or black if none have been found.

Cvars:

• sm_fakeitem_version
  
  • Plugin version

Install Instructions:

1. Place ItemMessages.smx into your addons/sourcemod/plugins/ folder.

Developers:

This plugin fires the item_found event. If you are hooking the event for stats tracking, you will get fake entries.
To prevent this, I've added an extra field to the event, you can use the following to detect fake items vs real items:

PHP Code:

---


public OnPluginStart()
{
    HookEvent("item_found", OnItemFound);
}

public Action:OnItemFound(Handle:event, const String:name[], bool:dontBroadcast)
{
    if (GetEventBool(event, "isfake"))
    {
        //Item is fake, maybe you'd want to use return here.
        return;
    }
    //Item isn't fake
} 


---

ToDo:

• Add support for custom names (PlayerX has found: A Pumpkin) - Done!
• Menus for each option (this will be a huge pain)

Might it be within the purview of this plugin to also fake achievement messages? Like http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=883207 ?
