DeadChat
Version 2.0

Requirements:

• Sourcemod 1.0.3

Supported Games:

• Counter-Strike: Source
• Team Fortress 2

Description:

This plugin allows dead players using chat to communicate with alive players. By default it will read sv_alltalk as it's enable cvar. You can use the override cvar to enable or disable the plugin regardless of sv_alltalk (see below). Alive players will see exactly what the dead players see as far as chat msgs go. Names appear as their team color and its formatted exactly the same as valve made dead chat msgs appear.

Cvar(s):

• deadchat_enable - Enable deadchat (-1: Read sv_alltalk, 0: Disable, 1: Enable)
• deadchat_teamsay - Allow dead players to talk to alive teammates through team-only chat. (Aka "ghosting")

Todo: (Strikethrough = Completed)

• (none)

Installation:

• Extract deadchat.smx file to sourcemod/plugins
• Extract deadchat.phrases.txt to sourcemod/translations
• Your done!

Changelog:

July 12th

• Released

• say_team as a dead person will only show the text to their own team (dead or alive)

July 15th

• Re-arranged some code to easily add support for other games
• TF2 support added

August 14th

• Separated CSS and TF2 into their own plugins

March 19th 2010

• Added deadchat_teamsay cvar to prevent ghosting via chat.
• There is only 1 source code for all games, the defines tell what game to compile it for.
• Translations added so it can support other languages.
• Clients that are silenced or gagged (or for some reason just can't use chat) will be ignored by the plugin.
• Added a command that forces one client to say something to a specified group of targets with an optional parameter to print it as if they were dead.
• Plugin was recoded.. that might be important, idk.

I modified this plugin quite a bit for my servers. Here's a few suggestions for what you should change:

1. Use RegAdminCmd() for "say" and "say_team" and make a callback for each
   • If the person uses "say", print it to everybody
   • If the person uses "say_team", print it to that person's team only
2. If the first character of the player's chat is @, handle the plugin

I'll fix it so it only prints to the player's team with say_team.

Actually instead of checking for "@" I'm going to use event player_chat because it includes an event variable "teamonly"

The @ thing isn't because of team chat, it's to prevent stuff like admin chat or all chat from being doubled up.

[Greyscale]

player_chat won't be fired if any other plugin returns Plugin_Handled in a "say(_team)" command callback.

So there won't be any need to check for it, player_chat is only fired if it actually gets to chat

EDIT: Apparently there is no player_chat event :/

I'll do it your way

"player_chat"                // a public player chat
    {
        "teamonly"    "bool"        // true if team only chat
        "userid"     "short"        // chatting player 
        "text"          "string"    // chat text
    }

I dont see how it's not working..

Here's my version if you're interested.

I was working on this last night, I now I have it done except for some reason it's cutting off (Counter-Terrorist), I'm to (Counter-Terr).

I'm trying to fix this then I can get it out.

[DontWannaName]
