World Chat Script

[Foereaper]

Ported my old world chat script over to Eluna, thanks to Laurea for improving it and optimizing it even more

 

[Ican]

thanks but somehow iam getting this on admin char

scripts/CHAT.lua:44: invalid value (nil) at index 4 in table for 'concat'

 

[Foereaper]

That is because you're using custom gm ranks, update the script accordingly and it will work.

You could also add a default value

(Rank[player:GetGMRank()] or "7DFF00")

Yeah.. I was thinking about it right after I posted my reply, just haven't had the time to get to it could also get the ranks on server start with a query

If the command didn't work, are you sure you added it in the scripts folder and that it loaded correctly in the console?

I created "scripts" folder in my bin/release folder and put the WorldChat.lua in it , Then restarted server ... idk if i should do something else !

write reload eluna
on world console. If it reloads Eluna. The engine is there and running.
if so, then check that the scripts folder is in the same folder as worldserver.exe

Make a script that only prints something :
print("test")

and do the reload command and see if the message prints.

Thanks , It worked ... I have a small problem ... I put .o command for world chat but GMs can't use it , when I try to write .o text , it says there is no such a command ! any idea ?

 

[Rochet2]

You can't make commands with dot in Eluna. The core parses the message for commands before the chat hook activates.

.. And there is no on command hook.. Yet

 

[ZeuS]

So what you suggest to use as "world chat" command ?
If I put "o" as world chat command , then players should use it like this ? ~~ > o text ? wouldn't it make problems ?

 

[Foereaper]

That would work perfectly fine

Hello,


I've followed the steps what Rochet2 explained.


I've placed the script inside the script folder then restarted server and logged in. Then i'll type in: /world channel .world channel and it keeps says Incorrect command?

What am i doing wrong?

[Foereaper]

You cannot use . or /, those prefixes are reserved by the client (/ specifically for emotes and client commands) or the server (. prefix for all server commands)

I think the timer isn't working correctly, since when I send a message and I try to send one right after. It will say "You must wait, etc" but the timer will stay there until I send 4 more messages. If that makes any sense.

 

[Barebones]

Can you take away the timer?

 

[Foereaper]

It works fine, just tested it. To disable the timer, just set CooldownTimer = 0;

 

[Ghostcrawler336]

Hmm weird, I'll just disable the timer then. But over all nice release!
