# AdminStealth

A companion to CS2-SimpleAdmin's `css_hide` (`!hide`, `@css/kick`). SimpleAdmin's hide moves the
admin off the scoreboard. This plugin makes it look like they left the server:

- When an admin hides, every other player gets a `player_disconnect` event for them, sent to each
  client only. The server and other plugins never see it, so the admin stays connected.
- While an admin is hidden, their team changes, their death and their real disconnect are not
  broadcast to clients.
- `status` from a player's console is blocked and prints nothing. It still works from the server
  console and RCON.

WebPanelBridge leaves hidden admins out of `css_webpanel_status`, so simpleadmin-web doesn't show
them either.

Built for CounterStrikeSharp **1.0.375** (`net10.0`) on Metamod:Source 2.0.0.1469, and needs
CS2-SimpleAdmin 1.8.2b's shared API (`CS2-SimpleAdminApi`). `lib/CS2-SimpleAdminApi.dll` is a
compile-time copy of the server's `shared/` one and isn't shipped. Without SimpleAdmin loaded, only
the `status` block works.

## Limits

- Hiding still lasts only as long as SimpleAdmin remembers it: a map change or reconnect makes the
  admin visible again, and joining a team unhides them.
- Unhiding doesn't announce the admin as joining again.
- The server browser and trackers get the player list from a separate server query, which this
  doesn't touch, so they still list a hidden admin.

## Install

Build with `cd plugins/AdminStealth && ../../build.sh`. Then copy the contents of
`compiled/AdminStealth/` to `game/csgo/addons/counterstrikesharp/plugins/AdminStealth/` on the
server.

Or install a release, which unpacks into `game/csgo/`:

```
tar -xzf AdminStealth-<tag>.tar.gz -C /srv/cs2/game/csgo
```

To publish one, commit, bump `ModuleVersion`, then run
`FORGEJO_TOKEN=... ./release.sh v<ModuleVersion>`. It rebuilds the plugin from the committed
source in the SDK container, tags HEAD, and uploads `AdminStealth-<tag>.tar.gz` to the git.zio.sh
release. The plugin has no config.
