Server_Mute [v1.0.0-2 / v1.1.0-1] - as per request of K3k0m@n

[TheBlackParrot]

MSP's mute command is apparently really bad, and I decided against using CSCS to create a new one.
I attempted to make it look as default as possible, even going as far as preventing serverCmdStartTalking from functioning (optionally) on muted players.

Command syntax is /mute victim minutes, the victim does not have to be on the server. Names will work if the victim is on the server, while BL_ID will always work.

Features:

• Mutes remain persistent after restarts.
• Blue names in the upper-left corner can optionally be prevented from working on muted players (their name will not show up when they're typing a message). By default, it is prevented from working.
• Permanent muting can be used by using -1 for the amount of minutes.
• Victims do not have to be on the server to be muted
• Mutes do not have to be announced, they are by default.

Variables:

• $Mute::Core::Config
  • Configuration location
  • config/server/mute/config.cs by default.
• $Mute::Core::SaveDir
  • Muted player data goes here, this is where the DB will fetch muted players on server start.
  • config/server/mute/saves by default.
• $Mute::Server::Announce
  • Option to announce mutes.
  • 1 by default.
• $Mute::Server::AllowRank
  • Who is able to use the command.
  • Admin by default
  • Options include
    • Moderator*
      • *Must use %client.isModerator, wasn't sure what to actually use here so I just assumed the standard.
    • Admin
    • Super Admin
    • Host
• $Mute::Server::AllowIsTyping
  • Option to enable/disable muted player's blue name in the upper left.
  • 1 by default.

I'll add RTB prefs by demand, considering it's supposed to be dead and there's no replacement for it.

Download
Stable: v1.0.0-2
Testing: v1.1.0-1

Support_Updater will work with this addon, delete version.txt if you wish for it not to.

Testing repository currently has a shadow mute option, set $Mute::Server::Shadow to 1 to try it out. The stable version does not currently have this option.

Fixed a couple of bugs

• Fixed bug with permanent mutes giving an invalid timestamp when muted players try to chat. ("You have been muted. It expires on 0.")
• Forgot to add support for the announce variable.

This is fantastic. Do you think it's possible to add in a shadowmute? Basically when they try to talk they see their chat but noone else does.

Fantastic, also:
// (!%year % 4) wasn't working. why? i don't know
It's because the ! is evaluated before the %, causing it to be (!%year) % 4 instead of !(%year % 4).

you can mute someone for a whole year?

Technically it seems you can mute for upwards of 4000 years, since there's a maximum integer value of over 2 billion.

But at that point you might as well permamute
