String problems - Jack_Leslie - 15.10.2011

I have this string:

pawn Код:

format(string, sizeof(string), "Your origin is %s.", GetPlayerOrigin(playerid));

It's meant to switch between the enum values (which are right, I debugged them) and output the string but it doesn't. here's the getplayerorigin:

pawn Код:

public GetPlayerOrigin(playerid)
{
    new string[126];
    switch(PlayerInfo[playerid][Origin])
    {
        case 5: string = "Russia";
        case 4: string = "Africa";
        case 3: string = "Australian";
        case 2: string = "Europe";
        case 1: string = "America";
        case 0: string = "No Origin Specified";
        default: string = "None";
    }
    return 1;
}

I think that this would work:

pawn Код:

public GetPlayerOrigin(playerid)
{
    new string[126];
    switch(PlayerInfo[playerid][Origin])
    {
        case 5: string = "Russia";
        case 4: string = "Africa";
        case 3: string = "Australian";
        case 2: string = "Europe";
        case 1: string = "America";
        case 0: string = "No Origin Specified";
        default: string = "None";
        return string;
    }
    return 1;
}

Again, I don't know if this works.

pawn Код:

stock GetPlayerOrigin(playerid)
{
    new string[126];
    switch(PlayerInfo[playerid][Origin])
    {
        case 5: string = "Russia";
        case 4: string = "Africa";
        case 3: string = "Australian";
        case 2: string = "Europe";
        case 1: string = "America";
        case 0: string = "No Origin Specified";
        default: string = "None";
    }
    return string;
}

Must be a stock, a public cannot return a string.

Thank you handsome sir.

Does that actually work correctly?
I'm sure assigning strings to variables cannot be done through the equals operator...

Could be having a stupid moment though...

Definitely a stupid moment, I guess! Sorry!

Re: String problems - GrimR - 15.10.2011

I agree though funky, I always got errors when doing this, I even posted about it....

Also you were doing return 1;, so it wouldn't be passing a string back anyway lol. But I see you have it solved now.
