GM alert Addon?

[firedice]

Hello, Just wondering if there's a GM alert addon? like, say if Player X signs in, or Player X messages you, or Player X is next to you kind of thing.... that can send me an alert, IE by playing a sound file or some sort?


Thanks

If someone can find a way to detect a GM, we can add an alarm. I'm not sure if there's some offset inside the pawn class that denotes whether a player is a GM or not. If I remember correctly, their name is prefixed with "<GM>", right? Does this display in the name as seen by the bot?

This can be tested pretty easily. First, turn DEBUGGING on. Then, on line 122 of bot.lua, you'll see this:

Code: Select all

			local target = CPawn(player.TargetPtr);
			printf("[DEBUG] player target type: 0x%X\n", target.Type);
			printf("[DEBUG] player target attackable: %s\n", target.Attackable);
			printf("[DEBUG] player target aggressive: %s\n", target.Aggressive);

Add this and save it:

Code: Select all

			printf("[DEBUG] player target name: %s\n", target.Name);

Now start the bot with a GM detected then pause it after it displays start-up info, and post what it says the player's target name is. I'm guessing it will be something like "<GM> namehere".

Why? Are you gonna leave work, school, your friend's party just cause you got a text? And even if you did, it'd probably be too late already - by the time you'd get home, you'd be banned. That'd only work if you moved within like a 100m radius of your computer at all times ...

personally i never met a GM before... or had any contact with one, i just want to do this for precautionary since that other dudes post.


which addon makes a sound when you get a whisper?

Unfortuantly it's not that easy. Their names are normal, just their first class is Game Master. To see how it looks like, check picture below.

Ah, right. I remember their main class being Game Master back when I first made my Druid and Runemaster (about 6-8 months before those classes were released). I tried to also make myself a Game Master, but it just resulted in being instantly disconnected due to IP checks. Now if only I could remember all the details...

Seems the GM's have made their lvl 200, if all have done this then you can easy detect their lvl > 62.

If you could remote into your home PC from your cell, "LogMeIn" can do this, you could pause a bot if a GM is near. But again, time to login from alert might be too long.
