Help with afk command

[iViscosity]

I have a command that when someone uses it, it will put them in spectator mode. Right now I have:

Code: Lua

1. local CATEGORY_NAME = "Utility"
2.  
3.  
4. function ulx.afk( calling_ply, should_afk )
5.  
6.  
7.         if ( not should_afk ) then
8.  
9.  
10.                 calling_ply:ConCommand( "ttt_spectator_mode 0" )
11.                 ULib.tsay( calling_ply, "You have disabled spectator mode. You will return next round." )
12.  
13.  
14.         elseif ( should_afk ) then
15.  
16.  
17.                 calling_ply:ConCommand( "ttt_spectator_mode 1" )
18.                 ULib.tsay( calling_ply, "You have enabled spectator mode." )
19.  
20.  
21.         end
22.        
23. end
24.  
25.  
26. local afk = ulx.command( CATEGORY_NAME, "ulx afk", ulx.afk, "!afk" )
27. afk:defaultAccess( ULib.ACCESS_ALL )
28. afk:help( "Set yourself to Spectator Mode." )
29. afk:setOpposite( "ulx unafk", { _, _, 0 }, "!unafk" )

But no matter what I type, !afk or !unafk, it will always activates the "not should_afk" part.


Screenshot:





No errors, no nothing. Just that. I'm not good with setOpposite, what am I doing wrong here?




OT: When I'm on a listen server, do I have access to all commands even if I'm not in superadmin group?

I'm pretty sure you only need one _ in set opposite. Why do you have should_afk in ()? Try getting rid of those. Using ! Instead of not can made your code more clear.

[iViscosity]

I've always used not and it's working on a command I just made recently. If I have only one _ in the setOpposite it tries to index target_ply as a number.

I mainly use the parentheses because JavaScript. I'm used to that and it works so not a big deal.

You forgot to add a bool arg to the command. This should work:

Code: Lua

1. local CATEGORY_NAME = "Utility"
2.  
3. function ulx.afk( calling_ply, should_revoke )
4.    
5.  
6.   if !should_revoke then
7.  
8.     calling_ply:ConCommand( "ttt_spectator_mode 0" )
9.     ULib.tsay( calling_ply, "You have disabled spectator mode. You will return next round." )
10.  
11.   else
12.  
13.     calling_ply:ConCommand( "ttt_spectator_mode 1" )
14.     ULib.tsay( calling_ply, "You have enabled spectator mode." )
15.  
16.   end
17.  
18. end
19.  
20.  
21. local afk = ulx.command( CATEGORY_NAME,"ulx afk", ulx.afk, "!afk", true )
22. afk:addParam{ type=ULib.cmds.BoolArg, invisible=true }
23. afk:defaultAccess( ULib.ACCESS_ALL )
24. afk:help( "Set yourself to Spectator Mode." )
25. afk:setOpposite("ulx unafk", { _, true }, "!unafk" )
26.

Ok, didn't know "true" could be in place of the 0.

[dankpepe]

I don't really know what the true does, I just had it from another script. I believe the part you were missing was this:

afk:addParam{ type=ULib.cmds.BoolArg, invisible=true }

[Mr_Rippe]

I know this is necroing an old thread, but I'm curious: does this allow people to AFK others mid round? If not, what should be modified to allow inputting the parameter of the player's name?

This command lets you set only yourself to afk. You can go afk at any time.

Code: Lua

1. function ulx.fspec( calling_ply, target_ply, should_revoke )
2.  
3.  
4.   if should_revoke then
5.    
6.     target_ply:ConCommand( "ttt_spectator_mode 0" )
7.     ulx.fancyLogAdmin( calling_ply, "#A has removed #T from Spectator-Only mode.", target_ply )
8.  
9.  
10.   else
11.  
12.  
13.     target_ply:ConCommand( "ttt_spectator_mode 1" )
14.     ulx.fancyLogAdmin( calling_ply, "#A has forced #T to Spectator-Only mode.", target_ply )
15.  
16.  
17.   end
18.  
19.  
20. end
21. local fspec = ulx.command( "Utility", "ulx fspec", ulx.fspec, "!fspec" )
22. fspec:addParam{ type=ULib.cmds.PlayerArg, ULib.cmds.optional }
23. fspec:addParam{ type=ULib.cmds.BoolArg, invisible=true }
24. fspec:help( "Sets a target into spectator mode." )
25.  

This should work, if that's what you're looking for.

Still learning here. I've used ulx afk (!afk) in the past, but now that'd ive added some of the same old ulx addons, I'm now NOT seeing ulx afk functioning, but now have to run fspec, which is cumbersome.

If I wanted to use ulx afk, is it as simple as changing the "ulx fspec" in your code to afk?

Edit: maybe i'll give this a try /index.php/topic,10011.0.html#msg51490
