    I got sick and tired of seeing the stupid color codes (those ^# things) for COD in names in TF2.

    Thus, this plugin.

    Has one setting:

    sm_colorcodecleanup_threshold

    Defaults to 1, as in 1 color code allowed in the name. Set to 0 to strip a name of color codes no matter what. I left it at one because I could see someone trying to make a face or something in their name using ^ followed by a number, like 0 or 8.

    Tested in a limited fashion. It calls the sm_rename command (which should be part of playercommands, alongside slap and slay) for the client, as I didn't want to copy/paste/have to keep updating that code.

    It should work in any game that sm_rename does.

    If someone has all color codes for a name for some reason it will name them Unnamed.

    EDIT: Version 0.2, should be a bit of an efficiency improvement on figuring out the new name, and throws an activity line in.

    EDIT: Version 0.3, use the player_changename event instead of OnClientSettingsChanged (Benefit of it only fires when the name changes, compared to on #Name_change_limit_exceeded and other minor changes), but still has timers (INTENTIONALLY, FOR GOOD REASON, SEE POST A COUPLE DOWN)

    Why did u use timers and OnClientSettingsChanged()? OnClientSettingsChanged() happens like 100 times in second. Its better to check player name in OnClientConnected() and hook "player_changename" event to prevent changing name after connect.

    As for using OnClientSettingsChanged, it was pretty much only firing when a name changed (almost) and for whatever reason I am missing some events in my local listing of events.

    As for not blocking the name change event, I don't think that actually blocks changing the name to begin with. If it does, I don't WANT to keep them from changing their name. (I have keybinds to change mine!)

    As for timers.....

    Code:
    ] setinfo name a
] setinfo name b

    THAT is why I have timers.

    Did update the plugin to use the event though.

    Omg. I incorrectly wrote.
    U dont need to block namechange in event "player_changename", just check new name for color codes. If name contains color codes and u want to change it then create timer which will change name.

    If you looked at the latest update, I do believe I do that now. <_<

    Windows server or Linux server? If Windows, you need to update your gamedata, there is a bad offset (off by 1).
