Network String Grabber

Just a lua file which will grab a bunch of network strings and ids.
Just run it when you're on a server and will save to data/opennetfunctions inside of your garrysmod folder, with the string and id.

There are actually a few methods for doing this

Code:

local Messages = {}

-- Method 1
local i = 1
local NetworkString = true

while NetworkString do
	NetworkString = util.NetworkIDToString(i)
	Messages[NetworkString] = true
	i = i + 1
end

-- Method 2
for i = 1, math.huge do
	local str = util.NetworkIDToString(i)
	if not str then break end

	Messages[str] = true
end

-- Method 3
local i = 1
local NetworkString = true

repeat
	NetworkString = util.NetworkIDToString(i)
	Messages[NetworkString] = true
	i = i + 1
until not NetworkString

Personally I'd use the second method but all three do the same thing.
Also there's no need to use the server's IP in the created file's name, use GetHostName. It'll make it way easier to find if you join a shit ton of servers.

GetHostName would always result in it not saving, so i didn't bother :/
with you saving it into a table, what does Messages[str] = true mean?

It just makes checking if the table has the message more efficiently than using table.HasValue. With that method I can just check if the key exists by doing

Code:

if Messages["message"] then

instead of looping through the entire table to check for a value.

This probably goes through it in more depth.

And to fix the GetHostName issue you could use string.gsub to replace non-alphanumeric characters.

dumb thread -rep it because i can

everyone here is a stupid, half-intellegent thirdworlder . i am an american who is not afraid to express his forum rights. all you mongs struggle with easy lua syntax issues and simple algorithm problems. ha ha ha, dont make me laugh. just yesterday, i programmed my reverse engineered i7 cpu to communicate back-and-fourth with me in machine code. all you nerds on UC and MPGH dont even know a lick of assembly either! hahaha. Terry Davis is a phony CIA ******. Reminder to everyone, whatever I say goes. Respect and worship the HolyC and it's covenant 640x480 resolution. Your absolution depends on it. This is a wakeup call for every wannabe hacker in this trash mobile site.

	print(str)
end

anyway to make it print only certain net messages?

search for specific string and if it matches print it

That's good if you only have a couple messages. If you have a shit ton of messages you can put them in a table like

Code:

local tbl ={["Net message"] = true,}

then check if tbl[key] is true, you don't have to if you don't want to but it'd save you from typing

Code:

elseif msg == "string" then

a bunch of times.

Nice one, lad
