How to make a players name go invisible/disappear at a command? - theshigbat - 26.01.2008

I have no idea how to make it so when a player types /namesoff or /nameson or even /names to toggle names every player's name turns transparent/totally invisible.

I heard that it can only be done upon a gamemode start.. anyone know how to make it so when people type a command they can make names disappear? (Make sure they can turn back on! :P)

Thanks

Using ShowPlayerNameTagForPlayer(playerid, showplayerid, show) and loops, easy

I'm guessing the show variable is between 1 and 0 yes?

But how would I manage to do it with everyone's id?

pawn Код:

for(new i=0; i<MAX_PLAYERS; i++)
{
  ShowPlayerNameTagForPlayer(i, showplayerid, show);
}

This will disable/enable all player names (i think.. UNTESTED)

I think he wanted it for the player who type the command also should playerid stay and the showplayerid must be everyone

Код:

for(new a=0; a<MAX_PLAYERS; a++) { 
ShowPlayerNameTagForPlayer(playerid,a,true/false);
}

a have question about how to hide playermarker...
is theres a function? :S

Re: How to make a players name go invisible/disappear at a command? - yom - 26.01.2008

SetPlayerMarkerForPlayer(playerid, showplayerid, color)

Aren't functions names clear enough?

On the place where you want it to execute.

Re: How to make a players name go invisible/disappear at a command? - IA015 - 27.01.2008

Re: How to make a players name go invisible/disappear at a command? - theshigbat - 27.01.2008

Yeah I'm struggling aswell, I don't understand where it's meant to go.

Re: How to make a players name go invisible/disappear at a command? - IA015 - 27.01.2008

Код:

if(strcmp(cmdtext, "/invisible", true) == 0)
{
	for(new a=0; a<MAX_PLAYERS; a++)
	{
		ShowPlayerNameTagForPlayer(playerid,a,false)
	}
	return 1;
}

maybe. no errors but i haven't test yet

Re: How to make a players name go invisible/disappear at a command? - theshigbat - 27.01.2008

When I put that in, it says 'Invalid function or declaration' in the errors list.

Have you spelled/put something in wrong?

Re: How to make a players name go invisible/disappear at a command? - Nero_3D - 27.01.2008

he forgot the ";" after showplayer...

Код:

if(strcmp(cmdtext, "/invisible", true) == 0)
{
	for(new a=0; a<MAX_PLAYERS; a++)
	{
		ShowPlayerNameTagForPlayer(playerid,a,false);
	}
	return 1;
}

Noobish question

but will players who connect 2 the server be able to see the invisible player's name tag

I have always ran the loop continuously in the past, to make sure.
