Description

!sbp

ConVars
motdbp_version - Plugin Version

How to use advert colors
You can use any RGB(A) color with {#RRGGBB} or {DEFAULT}, {TEAM}, {GREEN}, {LIGHTGREEN}
Here is an online color picker.
Using /n will start a new line


Example 1:

{TEAM}View a backpack by typing {DEFAULT}!bp {TEAM}or {DEFAULT}!bp [playername]

Example 2:

{#0B7A7A}View a backpack by typing {#C1E823}!bp {#0B7A7A}or {#C1E823}!bp [playername] \n{#9E1145}View STEAM Inventory by typing {#C1E823}!sbp {#9E1145}or {#C1E823}!sbp [playername]

This plugin will now auto create a config file. plugin.motd.backpack.cfg can be found in your cfg/sourcemod folder
It is recommended, when updating that you delete the current cfg file, upload the smx, and restart the server. If you change the map or reload the plugin, sourcemod will recreate the old cfg in memory.

Nice.

[Invader Amoto]

I just tried this out on my linux server. It works excellently.

Thank you so much for this.
The many people in my servers thank you.

EDIT: I do find it occasionally says "invalid target" even though it will work on the same guy the next time I type it, but it's rare. As it is, this plugin is excellent.

Source is attached at the top. It would be illegal for me to supply a compiled plugin without supplying its source code.

Don't forget to add the CSsteamID.inc to your scripting/includes

Yes I know I tried for an hour to find out why cause in notepad++ it looks fine. I will fix it in the next update.
