Solved Modifying player's chat name

Guys,

I'm trying to create a plugin to modify the chat name from the admins, but when I input the command in the chat (/name newname) the console shows an error about the system not being possible to set a string as the basePlayer field.

Any advices on how to make oxide accept the name change?


Thanks in advance & Best regards.

 

You won't be able to do that, probably kinda complicated.
Easiest way would be to use:

OnPlayerChat(Assembly-CSharp/chat.say arg)
detect if it's an admin
then do
rust.BroadcastChat("NEWADMINNAME", message)
then
return false to block the initial chat

 

baseplayer.displayName = "new_name"
PROFIT!

 

Aha didnt know we could do that xD

 

Yes! We could

 

So, whats wrong here:

Code:

function PLUGIN:C_Name(player, cmd, args)
            if args.Length > 0 then
            if HasAcces(player) then       
            local getNew = tostring(args[0])
            basePlayer.displayName = getNew

Its a small piece of the code... anyway it returns "attempt to index global 'basePlayer' (a nil value)"

and if I change basePlayer.displayName to player.basePlayer.displayName it returns "attempt to index field 'basePlayer' (a string value)"

 

Code:

function PLUGIN:C_Name(player, cmd, args)
            if args.Length > 0 then
            if HasAcces(player) then      
            local getNew = tostring(args[0])
            player.displayName = getNew

 

Done! Tnx sir Reneb!
[DOUBLEPOST=1418695862,1418658387][/DOUBLEPOST]I missed something...

How can I call net.connection.username in order store it as a string?

 

You probably figured this one out already, but I think you can simply call 'player.net.connection.username' since player is the Type BasePlayer which is a derived Type of BaseNetworkable.

 

Actually I didn't @Mr. Bubbles, but thanks!
How I'm using other plugins as a base to build mine, I think that I didn't saw that call method before. Can you tell me where did you found it?

 

Decompiler, just check classes & methods and derived types.

 

Ow that!

Actually I download Telerik but didn't tried it yet and seems like its trial...
Any recomendation of a good free decompiler?

Tnx!

 

I'm using .NET Reflector, I think someone linked a free one somewhere.

 

I use ILSpy just as another alternative. dotPeek was being weird when I tried to install it and I didn't feel like troubleshooting at that moment. LOL.
