Author Topic: Admin Cloak  (Read 2055 times)

I am looking for/suggesting a cloak type of add-on. This would allow an admin to be able to cloak himself (become completely invisible) with a key-bind. For example:  you hit "ctrl c" and you become invisible, then you hit it again and you become visible. And when cloaked your name is also not visible from any distance. And if possible, it tells you in centerprint (like macro) when you become invisible and visible. I don't think anyone has created anything like this with a key-bind, but I will keep looking.

I am aware of the AdminX add-on which includes a cloak feature which allows you to become invisible, but you have to ctrl k to become visible again and you have to type "/cloak" or something. I need one that works with a key-bind.

I think this add-on should be quite easy to make and it would be useful in multiple ways for others.

just curious, why do you need it?



wasn't asking you
Keybind would require a client mod, if you want me to do it just ask.

Type /creep to toggle it.
Note that if you get too close to the player, they can see your name. I don't know how to fix this on my own yet. (aiplayers, blergh.)

For multiple things. I am creating a Slender game. I also need it for administrating my server.

Yes, please make it. If you could, make it so your name is always invisible. Please figure out how to do it because that would be very helpful. But if you can't, I will settle with it only appearing really close to other players. That one uses a command, but I need a key-bind.

And remember the centerprint chat (like macro) when toggling it.

It's a client sided chat notification. (Like add-ons that have a /help command)



I'll do the keybind but I'll need some help from modification discussion to make the name completely invisible.

don't waste your time. The shapename cannot become completely invisible.

Not so sure how to do so myself because I'm still relatively new to torquescript.

It's ok if the name is visible from directly in front of other players. I can live with that.

you could make the shapename only visible from 1 stud away so you couldn't see unless you were touching the cloaked player's collision box

This would be perfect if you can't get the name to be completely invisible.

it's been removed from them too.
badspot thought of this lol.

Use AdminX, it has a cloak function that hides your player and your name, really far away and really close, not in between for some reason.
