How To Prevent Staff Spam Spawn

[WeedHex 626]

On File: cmd_gm.cpp

#define PREVENT_MOB_STAFF

add where you want the static bool:

#ifdef PREVENT_MOB_STAFF
static bool CantStaffer(int vnum)
{
    switch (vnum)
    {
        case VNUM_MOB_YOU_DONT_WANT_STAFF_SPAWN:
            return true;
            break;
    }

    return false;
}
#endif

FIND:

    if (vnum == 0)
    {
        ch->ChatPacket(CHAT_TYPE_INFO, "No such mob(%s) by that vnum", arg1);
        return;
    }

ADD BELOW:

#ifdef PREVENT_MOB_STAFF
    if (CantStaffer(vnum) && strcmp("MASTERNAME", ch->GetName()))
    {
        ch->ChatPacket(CHAT_TYPE_INFO, "You can't spawn this mob.");
        sys_log(0, "PREVENT_MOB_STAFF: TRIED TO SPAWN BY COMMAND A BLOCKED VNUM:  %s", ch->GetName());
        return;
    }
#endif

(MASTERNAME = Your name, so you can spawn mobs.)

 

Finished, you're safe from /m!  Don't trust always your staff. It's just my opinion.

or you can disable /m for staff....

Bad code I think it's better with gm table and a new colum with numbers. 

1 = cannot use the function 

2 = can spawn x and y 

3 can use full

Wtf guys?  
GM without /m is not good.
I said just preventing. I had problems so I decided to make this, it's 100% useful and safe for dangerous vnums.

 

(kori says "bad code" is like a slug tell slow a turtle)

Well, so you have to compile the core when you want to add someone new into it. I don't like this solution.

You mean hardcoding is good? 

The idea is not bad but not your code sorry

I summon Jesus Christ to clean the sins.

Btw, if you're the owner and trust no one in your team, or don't give them high permissions or then hardcoded is indeed the better option. It's way harder for someone to steal your source and edit your game core (or hex ) then to enter database and change stuff, because sql injection is so 'hard' in crappy mt2 sites.

Personally I would just change permissions of gm ranks.

Now remember that easy to change in database also makes it easier to hack.

No sql user that will manage the website should have the permission to access anything in the common table tho

Tell it to most of pservers that run stuff out of the box and give 777 to everything

I need my staff spawn mobs. But if they spam a dangerous one??? They don't know if is dangerous or not. Now i can't do example but let's think about xD

It was just my opinion and i want to share the easy code if someone have this problem.
