[Solved] PrintToServer bug?

PC Gamer · **Author**

Can someone tell me why some of the PrintToServer commands aren't working?

No errors on console, no errors in logs.

Game: TF2
Sourcemod version: 1.11.0.6927

PHP Code:


			
#pragma semicolon 1

#pragma newdecls required



public Plugin myinfo = 

{

    name = "[TF2] Test PrintToServer at Round Start",

    author = "PC Gamer",

    description = "Prints to Server after round start",

    version = "PLUGIN_VERSION 1.0",

}



public void OnPluginStart()

{ 

    HookEvent("teamplay_round_start", OnRoundStart);

}



public void OnRoundStart(Event hEvent, const char[] strName, bool bDontBroadcast)

{ 

    PrintToServer("Round Test: Starting Round"); //This line prints

    PrintToChatAll("Round Test: Starting Round"); //This line prints

    

    int realplayers = 6;

    PrintToServer("Round Test: There are %i Human Players", realplayers); //This line does not print

    PrintToChatAll("Round Test: There are %i Human Players", realplayers);    //This line prints

    

    int hcount = 0;

    for (int i = 1; i<= MaxClients; i++)

    {

        if(IsClientInGame(i) && !IsFakeClient(i))

        {

            hcount++;

        }

    }

    

    PrintToServer("Round Test: Just kidding. There are really only %i Human Players", hcount); //This line does not print

    PrintToChatAll("Round Test: Just kidding. There are really only %i Human Players", hcount); //This line prints

    PrintToServer("Round Test: Done testing PrintToServer commands"); //This line prints

    PrintToChatAll("Round Test: Done testing PrintToServer commands");//This line prints

}

I'm running 300 plugins. Is there an easy way to output sm plugins list to a text file?

Here's a list of my plugins:

Spoiler

Edit: Tested with only 2 plugins running (forcewin and my roundtest plugin). Bug still happens.

Edit2: Edited plugin code above to add PrintToChatAll commands. All of the PrintToChatAll commands correctly printed to chat. The PrintToServer commands remain buggy. Only some of them print to Server console.

Could you try change event "teamplay_round_start" to else ?
I just assume, maybe some kind DEBUG messagin is trying supress console output message just in that time.

maybe

I just tried other events including round win, point captured, flag event, and OnClientPostAdmionCheck. In all scenarios the event fired, all of the PrintToChat commands worked, and only 2 out of 4 PrintToServer commands worked. I even added a timer to delay the print. Bug still happens.

I think this is a bug. The PrintToServer command doesn't always seem to fire when a variable is used with the command. No error is produced in server console. No error is printed in the error log. The command is simply ignored.

Edit: I changed the plugin to fire on command. Bug still exists. In the following code only Test 1 and Test 4 lines print to server console. All of the PrintToChat commands worked.

PHP Code:


			
#pragma semicolon 1

#pragma newdecls required



public Plugin myinfo = 

{

    name = "[TF2] Test PrintToServer on command",

    author = "PC Gamer",

    description = "Prints to Server on command",

    version = "PLUGIN_VERSION 1.0",

}



public void OnPluginStart()

{

    RegAdminCmd("sm_testround", Command_RoundTest, ADMFLAG_SLAY, "Testing PrintToServer bug");

}



public Action Command_RoundTest(int client, int args)

{

    PrintToServer("Test 1"); //This line prints

    PrintToChatAll("Test 1"); //This line prints

    

    int realplayers = 6;

    PrintToServer("Test 2: There are %i Human Players", realplayers); //This line does not print

    PrintToChatAll("Test 2: There are %i Human Players", realplayers);    //This line prints

    

    int hcount = 0;

    for (int i = 1; i<= MaxClients; i++)

    {

        if(IsClientInGame(i) && !IsFakeClient(i))

        {

            hcount++;

        }

    }

    

    PrintToServer("Test 3: Just kidding. There are really only %i Human Players", hcount); //This line does not print

    PrintToChatAll("Test 3: Just kidding. There are really only %i Human Players", hcount); //This line prints

    PrintToServer("Test 4: Done testing PrintToServer commands"); //This line prints

    PrintToChatAll("Test 4: Done testing PrintToServer commands");//This line prints



    return Plugin_Handled;        

}

Problem solved. My mistake.

I had the word 'Player' in my cleaner.cfg file which is used by the Cleaner Extension to suppress console messages.

Doh!

As always, thanks for your help Bacardi! You are the only person here and on Discord that tried to help.
