ADMIN STEALTH
as made by potatoz

DESCRIPTION
There are often players find it funny to freekill, teamkill, hack etc and as fast as an admin joins spectators, they act nice and tidy. That's what this plugin aims to solve. What the plugin does is allow admins with root to go into "Stealth Mode", this would move the admin in to the spectator team (without any messages in chat) and make this admin fully invisible from the scoreboard. If admin changes team however this Stealth is automatically removed to make sure admins don't forget to turn it off, otherwise the stealth command is a toggle (on/off).

COMMANDS
!stealth - Toggle Stealth Mode (ADMFLAG_ROOT)

CVARS
sm_stealth_autoswitch - Automatically switch admins to spectators on Stealth? Default = 1
sm_stealth_disable_switch - Disable Stealth Mode on switch to other team? (Only really applies if autoswitch is enabled) Default 1

NOTE
The above ConVars are easily changed in <gamefolder>/cfg/sourcemod/simple_stealth.txt (This file is auto-generated on first launch)

Side-Note: I am aware "Admin Stealth" already exist, but i find the plugin to have to many unnecessary functions and has become less stealthy because of all these flashy features

Moreover, the already existing plugin isn't even working very well, you're constantly being sent back to the team selection on the old one and therefore it's completly useless.
I'm looking forward to try yours


EDIT: You're saying:

That's not the case, it's still saying that I joined the spectators in the chat.
Could you fix that?

Yes the old is quite buggy and I ended up disabling it. With this new one ill happily put it on all my servers. Thanks for the release!

Update: (hopefully) fixed hiding team-changes in a better way

It gives a lot of warnings like:

FindSendPropOffs is marked as depreacated: Use FindSendPropInfo instead

I saw that just replacing it compiles fine (but I didn't test it in-game) btw you should fix it!

Why do you need to do this:

PHP Code:

char sName[MAX_NAME_LENGTH];    
GetClientName(client, sName, sizeof(sName));

I took a second look with the feedback you gave, i've changed FindSendPropOffs to FindSendPropInfo, used it in the first place cause that's the way i got it learned a while ago so i suppose it has changed in later updates so it should work better now either way (Has tested on my own server, seems to work just fine). "sName" has been removed aswell, i used it before for other features that didn't turn out how i wished to i prob forgot to get rid of it.

Thanks for the feedback

Small change that I think you should make, I was curious whether this stopped the spectator window some hacks have, and in it's current state it doesn't. I checked AimTux and it seems like it just reads m_hObserverTarget, so if you hook SetTransmit when the admin is in stealth it won't show on their spectator menu anymore

Now using on all my servers
The only problem now is i have !admins,
to see online admins.
The one i'm using is: Admin List 1.2 by Fredd,
is there a way to hide admins from that?

[Chrahb]

A "little" bug: if you join spectator, and type !stealth, and then join one of the teams.
You will then be invisible to players, and spectators that spectate you.
