[Trigger] Special Player Hero

[Warhunter]

Hello once again!
I don't know how to do, so, if I, Warhunter joins the game, and write -hello everyone it creates a hero for me, but this shall only work for me, the name Warhunter. If i am green, red, blue or any player, I shall still be able to write that, but noone other shall be able to it.

There is a problem with this, and can be exploited easily. Basically there is 3rd part software that can change a players name, therefore this command will work for them.

To counter this i suggest that you have a code randomly generated at the start of the game, then displayed to all players with the name 'WarHunter', BUT straight after it is displayed it should be cleared (use the option in cinematic/Clear screen of messages bla bla). Then you just have to run a loop from 1 to say.. 100? and make it display the massage 'SPACE' (dont actually write space lol).

All you have to do then is go to log, scroll ot the bottom and find your code. XD simples.

P.S. This way can still be worked around but its a heck of a lot more unlikely. And this is just a failsafe anyway. Hope this helped xD

(P.S. (P.S I'm sure if you ask nicely and offer rep pharoah will create this for you lol)).

Should work, sorry for typo's I have written this freehand as I haven't got access to world editor at the moment so there may be some differences but its principles should be there. Hope it helps

I believe the log won't show game messages in a multiplayer game

Great!

umm, he cant see the code can he?

Exactly. He'll figure it out when he attempts it though.

You could also use the check for host CS, but this would only work if he hosted the map. Then making him the only person that could create the hero.
