Sending Private Commands
On q3a based games
If you want to use this ability of B3 your game must support sending private messages to clients. On some Quake3 based games it is the
/tell command that you can use in the clients console.
In your plugin_admin.xml make sure you have the proper rights set for the admin to use the hidecmd setting.
Lets assume the private command for your game in this example is indeed /tell and you want to warn the player for cussing.
First issue a !list command to find your client slot number
!list
console: (b3): [pm] [4] xlr8or
Where the number 4 is your client slot number
You'll then send a private message to yourself with the command, so nobody else will see it, but it will get logged so B3 can process it.
/tell 4 !warn xlr8or cuss
console: (b3): [pm] WARNING (1): Rule #8: No profanity or offensive language (in any language)
The player will get a private message with the warning and nobody else will be able to see it.
On Battlefield Bad Company 2
On bfbc2 it's even simpler.
Just add / in front of your command and it will be private. So we can issue the warning like this:
/!warn xlr8or cuss
console: (b3): [pm] WARNING (1): Rule #8: No profanity or offensive language (in any language)
