[TF2] Trade Chat 1.5.1 (2012.10.09)
 

Trade Chat v 1.5.1

Description:
This plugin adds a special trade chat, players can hide it.

Usage:
Players can use /t to say something on trade chat and /togglechat to disable/re-enable tradechat for themselves. They also can use /lt to re-send their last offer or /mlt to check what is their last offer. Logs from the trade chat is stored in sourcemod/logs/tradechat.log

Admins with chat flag can use sm_trade_(un)gag to disable trade chat for selected player(s).

• sm_trade_antispam_delay - minimum delay between messages from one client (0 = disable)
• sm_trade_antispam_max - maximum number of messages, that player can send during block time before autogag (0 = disable)
• sm_trade_chatcheck - 0 = disable; values from 1 to 3 - check triggers from 1 to 3 (i. ex. sm_trade_chatcheck = 2 => plugin will only check triggers 1 and 2)
• sm_trade_chattrigger1 - chat trigger for sm_trade_chatcheck
• sm_trade_chattrigger2 - chat trigger for sm_trade_chatcheck
• sm_trade_chattrigger3 - chat trigger for sm_trade_chatcheck

Re: [TF2] Trade Chat
 

Valve should add something like this to game.

Re: [TF2] Trade Chat
 

could you add some screenshots? I'm not sure I understand how this exactly works.

It's good tool, when you don't want to see spam about trading.

Re: [TF2] Trade Chat
 

Great idea, it will be added to my servers!

Re: [TF2] Trade Chat
 

one thing that's bad about this... is if the player isn't really aware about this separate chat... then they won't see what ppl in it say.. idk its like people would be talking in two different worlds without being aware of each other if they aren't aware of the special feature.
I have yet to think if this would benefit our server or if something could be modified.
But overall it is a great idea.

Re: [TF2] Trade Chat
 

Thanks for this! I just added this to my server and it has been a success so far!

Plugin failed to compile! Please try contacting the author.

>_>. I really hate the compiling when it comes to compiling the file with the color.inc file.

Re: [TF2] Trade Chat
 

I don't think I mind too much about ppl coming to trade. Given how the game is though...it can be disruptive. In essence I like the separate chat for Trading. Makes alot of sense in separating from the actual game play chats. I'm sure root admins will still see all the chat from both, correct? Or are you able to configure what flag_admin (Ban/Kick) is immune to the separation?

Lastly....I don't know if anyone has made one or thought of it....I would really like people to go to SPECTATOR to do the trading. This would be my preference, so in thinking of this plugin, a cvar to enable/disable -- Move to Spectator slot if client action /trade. Something like that.

Some of these things, ideally should be default from Valve, but se la vie until then.

Re: [TF2] Trade Chat
 

Good idea, I'll install this now.
