Can we have it where it auto sends a invite if the client joins the server and isn't following the steam group?

Wait, I didn't knew that. Is my plugin "borderline" ?

Actually, I'm somehow leaning towards that this plugin is quite "borderline", assuming that you mean ... shouldn't be done, shouldn't be published, ... you name it.

So far, everything else in regards to group invitations has been unapproved / trashed. Once people have something close like this, it won't be that hard to adjust it to be "spamming out invitations".

Either way though, the latest development from Valve does sound to be preventing that.

Yeah, I noticed that. That's why I'm not sure if it's really that bad or not.
If this plugin is moved to thrash at anytime, I'll make the approriate modification to ASteambot as well.

Valve never wanted to disallow Invites to a Steamgroup of Communities.

They wanted to fight against these Gambling Promotion Code Groups. That's why they pushed that update. In my opinion, you can't really abuse it anyway, since you have to be friends with a bot until he can invite you into a group.

im getting that when typing sm_steamgroup in console

but anyway im getting steam group invite

[Arkarr]

Are you using version 1.2 of the plugin ?

PHP Code:

    if(client == 0)
    {
        PrintToServer("[SM] This command is in-game only.");
        return Plugin_Handled;
    }
