Hi!

Is it possible to allow certain commands target admins, ignoring their immunity level?
I have some VIP commands that are meant to be used between VIP's and admins on each other. The commands are not dangerous. I need VIP members (or low level admins) to be able to target a high level admin with those commands. How would I do that?

You will need to configure the targeting by your self,
Using FindTarget and then you need to configure the @ by your self.
By using FindTarget you can choose if to enable the immunity:

PHP Code:

FindTarget(int client, const char[] target, bool nobots, bool immunity)

I've been using FindTarget but never knew it had immunity arguments. I guess by default it is set to 1. I'll check it later and let you know if it worked. Thanks!

Edit:
Seems to be working. Thanks a lot!
Any idea why error message doesn't display? If I get it right, FindTarget should return -1 if the target wasn't found.
It doesn't display anything if I do it like this:
...
...
int target = FindTarget(client, arg, true, false); // Do not target bots is set to true

if (target == -1)
{
ReplyToCommand(client, "Could not find that name");
}

P.S.
Tried same thing with any names that are not present on the server and still this message didn't show.

Always check your logs when testing plugins or use the command directly from the server's console, it probably says something like this

[SM] Native "ReplyToCommand" reported: Language phrase "No matching client" not found

The reason for this is that you have to load the common.phrases file when you use ProcessTargetString which is used by FindTarget.

My bad, just starting out!
Your solution solved the problem. Thank you!
But is there a way to show my own error message (or maybe do something else) to clients instead of SM's default error messages? I could edit "common.phrases" but it's still not exactly what I have on my mind.

yes, use the raw processtargetstring instead of findtarget, since the point of findtarget in the first place is exactly to provide processtargetstring + error messages

[Mr.D]

Will try that. Thanks guys!
