The ban function

[watkins577]

Im making a talkaction which bans a player (and so far its coming along nicely), but one of the parameters is not self-explanatory.

doAddBanishment(accId[, length[, reason[, action[, comment[, admin]]]]])

So my question is, what does action mean?

 

[Darkhaos]

use "doAddIpBanishment(ip[, length[, comment[, admin]]])"

 

[Master-m]

use "doAddIpBanishment(ip[, length[, comment[, admin]]])"

Ipban != ban.

 

[watkins577]

That doesnt tell me what action does lol.

 

[watkins577]

So noone knows what action is? In the database it says its an integer thats unsigned (0 - ???), so what could it be? If anyone would be willing to post ban.lua from their talkactions, I would be grateful (since I had to restart my laptop because it messed up on me)

from sources

	ACTION_NOTATION = 0,
	ACTION_NAMEREPORT,
	ACTION_BANISHMENT,
	ACTION_BANREPORT,
	ACTION_BANFINAL,
	ACTION_BANREPORTFINAL,
	ACTION_STATEMENT,
	ACTION_DELETION

doAddBanishment(accId[, length[, reason[, action[, comment[, admin]]]]])

accId = Account Name/Number
Length = How long ban
Reason = What reason for the ban
Action = What action for the ban (such as deletion, ban, namelock, notetaion)
comment = pretty selfexplaining
admin = no idea

 

[watkins577]

Is length in hours, days, minutes, second, or milliseconds? And I think admin is the person who did it?

 

[Rizz]

admin is probably who did it, lenght, just test mate

 

[Darkhaos]

Mmm.. i think can be used this way:

doAddBanishment(getPlayerAccountId(uid), 30, "Offensive statmen.", ACTION_BANISHMENT, "GM sux!", GM Khaos)

Test it.. i don't know if that is correctly

 

[Rizz]

not

GM Khaos

but

"GM Khaos"

also action is one of these

ACTION_NOTATION = 0
ACTION_NAMEREPORT = 1
ACTION_BANISHMENT = 2
ACTION_BANREPORT = 3
ACTION_BANFINAL = 4
ACTION_BANREPORTFINAL = 5
ACTION_STATEMENT = 6
ACTION_DELETION = 7

 

[watkins577]

So wait... how does reason work? Is it preset reasons?

 

[Rizz]

Reason does not seems to be preset. It's probably a string.

 

[watkins577]

I cant find them ACTION_NOTATION in lib/constant, but I have

BANTYPE_IP_BANISHMENT = 1
BANTYPE_NAMELOCK = 2
BANTYPE_BANISHMENT = 3
BANTYPE_NOTATION = 4
BANTYPE_DELETION = 5

 

[Rizz]

What version of TFS you got?

I think (not sure) but BANTYPE is older, and ACTION is newer.

If you don't have ACTION_ just use BANTYPE_ and test some
