textdraw help - Sampiscool123 - 29.01.2010

how do i make it so when i type a command, say i type /help a textdraw would come up and say "hi" just under the sa-mp chat. how do i make it when i type another command like rules it would replace the "hi" with "hello"

Thanks

First... you'lll need the coords for the textdraw to go under the sa-mp chat, and then for the textdraw replacing the "hi" you'll need a timer for that.
go on :

and :

It would really help you.. because im guessing you're a beginner.

Then say i type /help and it comes up with a textdraw that says "Hi Sampiscool123, how are you?" how would i make it say "I am fine thank you" when i type /rules?

The example has it

TextDrawSetString(himessage, "I am fine thank you");
TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid, himessage);

Re: textdraw help - mansonh - 29.01.2010

Didn't read it carefully enough, or you would have used the definition.

new Text:himessage;

public OnGameModeInit()
{
himessage = TextDrawCreate(1.0, 5.6, "Hi, how are you?");
return 1;
}

public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
new newtext[41];
format(newtext, sizeof(newtext), "Hi %s, how are you?", GetPlayerName(playerid));
TextDrawSetString(himessage, newtext);
TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid, himessage);
return 1;
}
