Hi

I've developping a rcon bot to handle my servers. And for fun, I wanted to link both chat areas when players say something...
As I don't want to everything said on one server apears as Console, I'd like to know if it is possible to make a plugin as if a person who has told something was on the other server, with team colors (if any)...

I explain :
Dede is connected on server 1
He's speaking with Nico on server 2
Dede say "Hello Nico"
my rcon bot catch the say event (via logs), and issue a rcon command on server 2.
Nico read the message "Dede : Hello Nico" as if Dede was connected on server 2.

the command could be "remote_say <nick> <color> <text>"

I'm repeating myself : It's just for fun...

you could use the rcon command to issue a plugin message command so it wont appear from console.

IE
rcon yourplugin_csay "playername : Hello there"

and have the plugin send a chat area message, Make sure to include any user defined text be it name or chat text in quotes to avoid being exploited by the ';' and running a command on the console.

You can use lightgreen and green as text colors, but as of now nothing else.

Mattie has implemented a linux rcon command into eventscripts FYI since valve only left the client codebase in linux servers.

I've thought about rcon, but my bot can already do this... (rcon ...)
But i'd like to show the text like if the player was on the server. (Red color name, gold text...)

I know it can be possible, since the cvar-x plugin does this. When someone is authed, it shows "CVAR-X : player (steamid) authentified" with "CVAR-X" in green and the text in gold.
I'd like to have a plugin that at least does this :
thecommand <text>

So my bot could issue a rcon :
thecommand "Dédé : Hello World !!!"

and the result should be :

Remote> Dédé : Hello World !!!

you could use eventscripts

es_msg #multi #green/playername/: #default blhblhablhlablh

That only happens because the server auto colors the player name it finds connected to the server. I dont know of a way to color any generic text red, blue, or white.

Thanks for the reply...

I'm using es_msg, and now it's a customizable property in my code.

In Fact, I've done a rcon engine, with a pluggable interface, and one of the plugins will be an irc gateway.

But for now, I will code some easier plugins... If someone wants to code it's own plugin, I can show you how to do it... Maybe some coder will do great plugins that interracts with user trough menu...
