have a look at the sscanf2 plugin. pay attention to the "u" specifier, it converts "babul" to (my) playerid. since the latest update, you can create your own name detection script...

thx a lot

would this also work?

pawn Код:

foreach(Player,i)
{
    if(FindPlayerByName(DOMPlayer)!= -1)//if player is online
    {
        new DOMname[24];
        GetPlayerName(i,DOMname,24);
        if(strfind(DOMname,"PawnoQ", true) == 0)//if player is the player with the right name
        {
            SetPlayerScore(i,GetPlayerScore(i)+20);//give only him score
        }
    }
    else
    {
        //if player is not online
    }
}






stock FindPlayerByName(name[])
{
    new Pname[24];
    foreach(Player,i)
    {
        GetPlayerName(i, Pname, 24);
        if(!strcmp(Pname, name, true)) return i;
    }

Use this:

pawn Код:

CMD:id(playerid, params[])
{
    new ID, str[64];
    if(sscanf(params,"u",ID)) return SendClientMessage(playerid,COLOR_RED,"USAGE: /id [playername]");
    
    format(str, sizeof(str), "%s is ID: %d", pName(ID), ID);
    SendClientMessage(playerid, -1, string);
    return 1;
}

what color is -1 in color argument?

Re: get the playerid of a certain player - Alexander_123 - 29.01.2012

Its white colour.

Re: get the playerid of a certain player - jamesbond007 - 29.01.2012

ok can u do -2 ? what color would that be? anyone can explain why -1 is white ? 0.o

Because -1 converts to 0xFFFFFFFF in hex. -2 to -256 would also be white, with a decreasing alpha value.
