Change hostname - Mike Garber - 08.02.2010

Is there any way I can change the hostname from within the script, from a string or define?

Re: Change hostname - Grim_ - 08.02.2010

pawn Code:
new string[128];
format(string, sizeof(string), "hostname %s", DEFINE_HERE);
SendRconCommand(string);

I've already tried that. Does not work.
I wouldn't ask If It worked.

Code:
forward RandomServerNames();
new SVNAMES[1][256] = {
"Name",
"Name"
};

public RandomServerNames()
{
new string[256];
new random1 = random(sizeof(SVNAMES));
format(string, sizeof(string), "hostname %s", SVNAMES[random1] );
SendRconCommand(string);
return 1;
}

Then why do I get; warning 202: number of arguments does not match definition
on that line when I try It? I've already tried It, as I said...

Re: Change hostname - Grim_ - 08.02.2010

Are you putting your define in quotations marks? Like:
pawn Code:
#define HOST_NAME "My Server"


Re: Change hostname - [HUN]Gamestar - 08.02.2010

Try this.

pawn Code:
stock ChangeServerName(name[])
{
  new tmp[256];
  format(tmp, sizeof tmp, "hostname %s", name);
  SendRconCommand(tmp);
}

If you would like it automatically:
pawn Code:
#include a_samp

new server_names[][]={ "my server", "my server2", "my server3..." };
new gServerNameCounter=0;
//-------------------------------------------------
public OnFilterScriptInit() SetTimer("ChangeServerNameRun",30*1000,true);
//-------------------------------------------------
public ChangeServerNameRun();
public ChangeServerNameRun()
{
  ChangeServerName(server_names[gServerNameCounter]);
  gServerNameCounter++;

  if(gServerNameCounter>=sizeof server_names) gServerNameCounter =0;
  return 1;
}
//-------------------------------------------------
stock ChangeServerName(name[])
{
  new tmp[256];
  format(tmp, sizeof tmp, "hostname %s", name);
  SendRconCommand(tmp);
}

LOL I'm not a noob. Now I see why, I've been so slow all day, maybe I've been sleeping too much xD
I tried to do
pawn Code:
SendRconCommand("hostname %s"), SERVERNAME);
wich wouldn't work.

Now enjoy my stupidity xD
