Post subject: Silencing ip address

I am trying to silence by IP address using a python module. There are a few things I need to do in order to do this.

Get the player's ip when they enter the zone

Query the database for that ip and check the column 'banlength'

Compar that time to the current time to decide if they are still silenced.

Apply a new silence for the remaining time.

Any help would make me really happy. I'm working on it now. If I figure it out I will edit my post.

You'd want two columns, startedat and length. Then when the player enters the server you see if now - startedat < length, if so then you adjust the chatmask for length - (now - startedat) seconds.

You could probably push most of it to the db:

Code: Show/Hide

select length - (now() - startedat) from blah
where now() - startedat < length and ip = 'blah'

Then check to see if there is more than 0 rows of results.

How do I query the db and see if the ip entering matches a row with an ip that has a banlength on it? I need to know how to Query the database before I begin any of it.

Just look at the alias module.

New problem: I looked at setcm in playercmd.c but chat.SetPlayerChatMask doesn't seem to silence people. Could you help me out with this?

Post your code.

Code: Show/Hide

def c_silence(cmd, params, p, targ):
if int(params) >= 1:
chat.SetPlayerChatMask(targ, 1, int(params))

getcm shows all permissions, even if I change the int value.

Ok this works for me:

Code: Show/Hide

from asss import *

chat = get_interface(I_CHAT)

def c_silence(cmd, params, p, targ):
# get integer parameter
timeout = 0
try: timeout = int(params)
except: pass

# check for priv command
if isinstance(targ, PlayerType) and timeout >= 1:
newmask = 1 << MSG_CHAT
chat.SetPlayerChatMask(targ, newmask, timeout)

cmd1 = add_command("t1", c_silence)

Silencing chat channels for 60 seconds:

Code: Show/Hide

Smong> ?getcm
getcm: +pub +pubmacro +freq +nmefreq +priv +chat +modchat
Smong> ?t1 60
Smong> ?getcm
getcm: +pub +pubmacro +freq +nmefreq +priv -chat +modchat
