Nice xD

Great plugin, mate Once there are a few more features from Mani in SourceMod, I'll cut off dependency on it, making sure to intall this (Even though it'll be a base plugin by then ).

[SWE_Bert]

All console commands work, but "@ <message>" don't.

[theY4Kman]

It's @<message>, without a space in between. However, I wouldn't think that would affect it =/

[pRED*]

    if (text[1] != '@')
        return Plugin_Continue;

I think that 1 should be a 0...

Test this and see if it works (just changed both times the above appeared to a 0)

[ferret]

No. It should be text[1]. text[0] is a quote mark.

It works for me on the 988 and 990 builds of SM. As always, grab the latest build and try again.

[ferret]

My bad. I fixed a bug, tested it, but then forgot to save it. I have uploaded the corrected version.

if you use @psay in chat, it just acts like 'to all'. works only from the console. was that the way it supposed to be? wasnt sure.

[ferret]

Yes. Psay does not have a say trigger.
