Chat Rooms
1.0

Description: I really don't know if this has been made before. I searched, but i didn't find anything... Anyway.With this plugin, you can create chat rooms, where you and your friends can chat using '!' or whatever the character you've defined(default is '!'). You can lock and open rooms with voting. When a room is closed, no one can enter it.

Cvars:
amx_chatrooms <1/0> <On/Off> <default:1>
amx_cr_deadchat <1/0> <1 - if you're dead and others in your chat room are alive, they wont be able to see what you're writing. Default cs chat system. 0 - Everyone in your group will be able to see what you're writing without checking if you're dead or alive.> <default:1>
amx_cr_min_open <number> <Min players to open a room that's locked. If there are more less players than this cvar, the room will open when everyone has voted.> <default:2>
amx_cr_greentext <1/0> <On/Off, chat room chat's text will be displayed in a green color, so you can easily notice it.> <default:1>

Client Commands:
/makeroom <name> - create a new chat room.
/joinroom <name> - join a specific chat room.
/leaveroom - leave your current room.
/members - displays a list of members currently in chat room.
/room - displays your current room.
/openroom - vote for room opening.
/closeroom - vote for room closing.

When you've joined a chat room, you'll still be able to chat with everyone. You've to write '!' before your text, if you want only the chat room members to see it. Example:

!Hi Joe Output: (Chatrooms_name)*Status*Nick : Hi Joe Let's say our chat room's name is: "family", and you're dead. Nick - Joke: (family)*DEAD*Joke : Hi Joe If i would be alive: (family)Joke : Hi joe

If everyone leaves a room > It's automaticly deleted. You can create it again. The good thing about this plugin is, that you don't have to create or join a chat room every time you connect. You just have to set your default chat room, and 5 seconds after you've connected it'll automaticly add you to the chat room you've specified. If the chat room doesn't exist, it'll create it. You can set your default chatroom by setting info in your console:

setinfo my_room your_chatroom

For example - i want to join a chat room called: "chickens", after i connect:

setinfo my_room chickens

There can be max 6 players in a room, but you can change that number in the source(.sma) file. You can change the chat room chat prefix there too. There is no need to change the max chat rooms number, because there can't be more than 32 players online, and everyone of them can only create 1 room.
Just change these lines:

#define CHAT_PREFIX '!' - To change the prefix for chat room chat. #define MAX_CHATTERS 6 - Max players in one room.

The room will close only when every member has voted to close it. I've changed and added client commands and cvars.

This isn't a 100% tested version. I tested it alone, so i can't be sure if every command works properly!

Interesting...

Suggestion:

A command such as "close_chat" so people can have their own rooms

[shine771]

DruGzOG, didn't really catch your idea... They already have their own rooms. Only those who know the exact name of the room can enter. You mean completely block the chat? Only allow show the chat room chat? Or what?

[DruGzOG]

I meant as in they can lockdown their chat room so no one else can enter it

Sounds nice. Still I would add the define "MAX_CHATTERS" to a cvar. Also a nice thing to see in next version, would be some kind of color system. So, all chat messages would be red or something else.

Not possible, MAX_CHATTERS is used to determine array sizes at compile time, so it must be known to the compiler (a cvar obviously is not). He would have to change the plugin to use CellArrays to accomplish unlimited/custom limit chat rooms/chatters.

Ah ye, my bad. Didn't even read the code. :I

is it possible to use a .inc file tho? that would help more than having to recompile it.

[shine771]

No. You would still have to recompile it. Updated. Reread the first post. Take a look at changed too.
