[ANY] Console Cmd As Host (Listen Server Only) [v1.0.4 | 08-May-2022]

Marttt · **Author**

LISTEN SERVER ONLY

IMPORTANT NOTE: SourceMod doesn't support Listen Servers.

Description

Usually, plugin commands, when typed from the console, don't work on listen servers because the client index output is 0 (server).

A workaround to this is binding commands with the say command.
e.g.: (in console) "sm_admin" don't works, while "say !sm_admin" works.

This plugin executes plugin commands from the console as if it were the host, by finding its client index.

This is useful for me to test plugins in my local server for development purposes, hope to be useful for others as well.

Features

Convert console commands with client index 0 to their respective client host index.

Cvars

A configuration file named "console_cmd_listensv.cfg" will automatically be created for you upon the first run in the "\cfg\sourcemod\" folder.

PHP Code:


			
// Enable/Disable the plugin.

// 0 = Disable, 1 = Enable.

// -

// Default: "1"

// Minimum: "0.000000"

// Maximum: "1.000000"

console_cmd_listensv_enable "1"



// Automatically set the client (except bots) with Admin_Root flag and Immunity 99.

// 0 = OFF, 1 = HOST ONLY, 2 = EVERYONE.

// -

// Default: "1"

// Minimum: "0.000000"

// Maximum: "2.000000"

console_cmd_listensv_setadmin "1"

Admin Commands

sm_whoishost => Print a table displaying the clients and who is the host to the console. (z flag required)
sm_print_cvars_console_cmd_listensv => Print the plugin related cvars and their respective values to the console. (z flag required)

Known Supported Games

Left 4 Dead 1

Pirates, Vikings, and Knights II
Alien Swarm

Notes

This plugin only works on LISTEN SERVER. (local host launched with "-insecure" parameter)
The host is detected by finding the client with the IP = loopback/localhost or 127.X.X.X. (you can check this info by typing status in console)

Thank you!

Good plugin, very useful to enter developer mode in Listen Server or map command in console.

You can see FillCmds() routine in my Command Eater, see the scope marked as "iCmdType = CMDType_Game;"

BTW, nice job! Long time missed feature.

**Silvers**

This is great well done. Could probably be extended to other games? Maybe using GameRules props to find listen server host? Or look at some other games like CSS/CSGO. They have something like CTerrorPlayerResource/terror_player_manager but their own entity which I think is the same for most other games, would only require a few changes and checks to validate.

Hi Marttt, I tried this block in adminmenu_custom.txt, it's not work, but it's work in console

Code:

"Zoe"
{
			"cmd"			"sm_zoe; wait 1000; sm_3rdon; wait 1000; sm_3rdoff"
}

@Kid_Bandes,

You can't use "adminmenu_custom.txt" like that (with ";"), at least in "PlayerCommands" section.

It is the same as typing "sm_zoe;" in the chat. (doesn't work either)

You can try to open this as an "issue" to SM github repo and request if they can implement it. (split ";" into different cmds as in console)

I was able to make it working with "execute" key and by removing the console check from the commands, but I need check how are you doing it.
