It allows everybody with the "player_notes" privilege to write comments/messages/notices about a specific player.
Every note gets a random key from 100 to 999.
There can be multiple keys with the same number, just on diffrent players.
Commands:
/notes Shows up notes GUI
Optional settings: (in "init.lua")
Enable/disable timestamps
Define minimal and maximal number of keys.
E.g say Achilles killed random_bot, then as soon as this happened something like 'Achilles at (10.05.2014 5:37:73) killed random_bot' would appear under the notes section for Achilles
The Ironic Thing About Common Sense Is That It Isn't Very Common
Does this mod let the people see the notes on them or just the person with the priv who added it?
Is it possible for more than one player to see the notes or can anyone with the right priv see the notes? This would of course be useful for admins and mods on a server to keep track of people.
There is a serious problem with this mod. I added it and when it came to using /add_note, it said the note got added but suddenly the server announced it was shutting down.
There is nothing printed in debug to show why it is happening.
After rebooting the server I checked if the note had added and it hadn't.
There is absolutely nothing in the debug about the crashes or error.
I use windows XP.
Its easy to reproduce. Every time I type something like: /add_note rommie test note
it makes the server shut down.
/list_notes works fine but obviously returns the message stating the player has no notes.
Cool! Is it possible that the next version would have a combobox instead of simple edit field for username selection? You probably don't want to add notes on inexistent players..

It'll throw errors if the user isn't registred on the server. It also should be possible to add note to an offline player, so is a textbox the best way at the moment.
If you were able to make your mod to "throw errors if the user isn't registred on the server" then what's the problem of adding a note for some player who went off-line ATM?
Edit->combobox replacement won't cause any harm, but would save you from checking whether a player is on~ or off-line every time someone adds a note.
Yes, it's possible to add new notes with some code changes.
The main problem there is the deletion: What if the player gets unbanned? Should it delete the note or create a new one about "Unbanned by <player>"?
