hi my game(species,) is going well so far but i would like a enable/disable world chat verb for admins so that people cant talk if i turn it off. i have tried, i made it successfully but people who make a new char after i have disabled it can still chat.

Thanks in advance!

var/cantalk=1

mob/verb/Say(msg as text)
    if(cantalk)
        world<<"[msg]"

mob/verb/Say_Toggle()
    if(cantalk)// Sloppy way of doing so, though. But works
        cantalk=0
    else cantalk=1

No, here is something much simpiler. He is refering to a Global Mute sort of thing, like I have. Try this.

var/global_mute = 0 //make this a global var, like so
GM/verb/Global_Mute()//just remember to make special GM verbs and a staff list or something of the sort.
    set category = "GM"
    global_mute = !global_mute//if global mute is not already active, activate it. otheriwse deactivate it.
    world << INFO: "Global Mute is now [global_mute ? "Activated" : "Deactivated"]."


You must also put this into your worldsay command, like this.

mob/verb/Worldsay(T as text)
     if(global_mute)
          usr << "Global Mute is active."
          return
     else
         world << "[usr] says: [T]"
