Hello scripters , I am looking for a color text for chat, every sourcemod or eventscript that ive used has errors or dont work at all, was wondering if someone could make a sp for somthing like that.

This might not be exactly what you're looking for, but it's at least a good start:

Syntax: Select all

from random import choice
import colors
from cvars import ConVar
from listeners.tick import Delay
from messages import SayText
from messages.hooks import HookUserMessage
from players.entity import Player


CHAT_STRINGS = {
    'HL2MP_Chat_All': '{color}{data.param1}\x01 : {data.param2}',
    'HL2MP_Chat_Team': '\x01(Team) {color}{data.param1}\x01 : {data.param2}',
}

# Add any colors not represented in the 'colors' package
CONFIG_COLOR_CHOICES = [
    '87CEEB',
]


COLOR_CHOICES = [
    str(getattr(colors, color))
    for color in dir(colors)
    if isinstance(getattr(colors, color), colors.Color)
] + [f'\07{color}' for color in CONFIG_COLOR_CHOICES]


@HookUserMessage('SayText2')
def _saytext2_hook(recipients, data):
    if int(ConVar('mp_teamplay')):
        return

    key = data.message
    if key not in CHAT_STRINGS:
        return

    Delay(
        0,
        _send_new_message,
        (key, data.index, list(recipients)),
        {
            'data': data,
            'color': choice(COLOR_CHOICES)
        }
    )
    recipients.remove_all_players()


def _send_new_message(key, index, *ply_indexes, **tokens):
    """Send the message to the given players."""
    message = SayText(
        message=CHAT_STRINGS[key],
        index=index,
    )
    message.send(*ply_indexes, **tokens)

Don't call the plugin 'colors'. There's a package called 'colors' inside SP itself, which is what is imported and causing that error.

I thought we would have a check for that in the plug-in loading logic

We do, but it will only catch packages not modules because we internally lookup the spec of colors.colors instead of colors so importlib tries to resolve the colors module from the colors package but since colors is a module it fails to retrieve its __path__ which produce the exception above. For example, os is a module:

Syntax: Select all

sp plugin load os
[SP] Loading plugin 'os'...

[SP] Caught an Exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "..\addons\source-python\packages\source-python\plugins\command.py", line 164, in load_plugin
    plugin = self.manager.load(plugin_name)
  File "..\addons\source-python\packages\source-python\plugins\manager.py", line 180, in load
    spec = find_spec(plugin.import_name)

AttributeError: module 'os' has no attribute '__path__'

And asyncio is a package:

Syntax: Select all

sp plugin load asyncio
[SP] Loading plugin 'asyncio'...
[SP] Cannot load plugin 'asyncio'. Plugin name cannot be name of a built-in module

An easy fix would be to replace ../plugins/manager.py#L180-L184 with something such as:

Syntax: Select all

spec = find_spec(plugin_name)
if spec is not None and (
        spec.origin != 'namespace' and
        Path(spec.origin).parent != plugin.file_path.parent):
    raise PluginHasBuiltInName(
        'Plugin "{}" has the name of a built-in module.'.format(
            plugin_name))
