Anonymous Admin

[JPSC]

An admin, that nobody knows that person is an admin. When kicking or banning a person, the name of the admin is not shown. Other admins can see this person is an anonymous admin. Would be awesome for tracking down trolls.

How would you set who is an anonymous admin?

How would you set who is an anonymous admin?

same way you would a regular admin. Just do it before anyone gets on the server.

I think its anon if it's done in the console

We all know you can mess with isAdmin, but it's limited to a real admin, as you cannot load or access the admin gui.

Code: [Select]

%client.isAdmin = 1;
commandToClient(%client, setAdminLevel, 1);


Code: [Select]

%client.isAdmin = 1;
%client.isSuperAdmin = 1;
commandToClient(%client, setAdminLevel, 2);

You're all trying to figure out some kind of miracle workaround when you should just actually code some of the functions in.

You should leave .isAdmin and .isSuperAdmin at 0 otherwise people will know he's an admin. Considering bans will show his name, and if any players join after he's given this 'anonymous admin', he'll show up as an admin to them.

....could you use a silent promote?
and possibly add reasons to why they were promoted.(this + default admins would also be nice)
