Dead Mute

[soccercrazy195]

Can we please have an automute(Players get muted when they die) mod?

[vader0146]

hook.Add("PlayerSay", "MuteWhenDead", function( ply )
   if !ply:Alive() then
      return false
   end
end )

PlayerSay is a tricky hook.
So many scripts rely on it, but returning anything breaks the PlayerSay hook for all other scripts (if I remember correctly).
Including ULX chat commands.

Using a clientside Gamemode.OnPlayerChat would probably be better for not breaking an entire server hook system.

hook.Add("PlayerSay", "MuteWhenDead", function( ply )
   if !ply:Alive() then
      return false
   end
end )

In order to not break other hooks, here's a better implementation:

Code: Lua

1. hook.Add("PlayerSay", "MuteWhenDead", function( ply )
2.    if !ply:Alive() then
3.       return false
4.    end
5. end, 19 )

This uses ULib's modified hook.Add to do priorities, which means that all other mods get a shot at doing things with the text before it's blocked outright.
