Would be cool if the player became a CPU bot while AFK like in Left 4 Dead 1 & 2.

the error message on the console says this:

[Simple AFK System] lua/autorun/server/sv_command.lua:144: attempt to concatenate a nil value
1. v - lua/autorun/server/sv_command.lua:144
2. unknown - lua/includes/modules/hook.lua:84

What's the error message? There should be one printed in the console.

how do i actually activate it cause when i type in !afk on chat on the top left it keeps saying "Simple AFK System" is creating an error

I'll add it to my to do list and get around to it when I can, but I don't really work on this addon much anymore. Sorry.

Can you add a function when players get AFK they kill themselves and after back to the game spawn again?
viral32111  [author] 29 Nov, 2018 @ 6:00am 
It's a table called "afkPositions" inside lua/autorun/server/sv_command.lua

I am currently using this for my server but i am wondering how to set locations for being afk?

Cool! Can't wait for the next update! Once those features are added I will definitely be adding this to the server. The auto afk and the hovering text especially.

Update 222

Big overhaul, basically rewrote the entire addon and heavily optimized it.

For a detailed changelog see the GitHub Commit: https://github.com/viral32111/simple-afk-system/commit/30ef1171443a1b0f1caf0d593f5af5cd1519c922

In the next updates i'll probably add the following:
- Automatic AFK or auto kick/spectate when the player doesn't move for an extended period of time. (Haley and Brad's/TestBot's request)
- Overhead text above AFK players.
- "I'll be AFK in..."-like system where you can specify when you'll be AFK, then it will auto-afk you after that time has elapsed. (This is a maybe though, still thinking about it.)
