[FS]Second Chatbox!! =>Version 1.0<= - Sandra18[NL] - 30.03.2008

Second Chatbox!!

What is it:

This filterscript creates a total new chatbox in the bottom-right corner of the screen.
The chatbox will use 15 or 30 textdraws. (depending on the line-mode you're using)
Messages will scoll from down to top.


What's wrong with the normal one?

Basically nothing, but sometimes it's annoying when you want to view for example a /command pages
Such command sometimes takes up all 10 lines in the normal chat, and when someone else is typing a message, you already lost the first line
So this filterscript prevent players from chatting in the normal chat, and instead their messages will be shown in this new chatbox.
For some people it's very useless, but it may be usefull for some (busy) servers.

There are 2 diffrent modes: I recomment you to use the Double-line-mode:
Why? Because it allows you to type much longer messsages:
With Single-line mode your messages can not be longer than about 30 characters.
With Double lines, messages can be around 90 characters long.
Only with singlelines, 30 messages will be shown, doublelines (only) 15 (normal chat has 10 lines).

If a player connects, he/she can see the last 15 or 30 messages!


How to instal: Commands: Screenshots:

Double-Line-Mode:


Single-Line-Mode:





Download:

- Chatbox.pwn (MediaFire)
- Chatbox.pwn (MyFreeFilehosting.com)

Known Bugs:
- When you restart your gamemode (with gmx) you may crash
- When you type after a messages 2 (or more) spaces, the message will not be shows
I fixed 1 space, but more are still buged.
If someone knows how fix this, help would be appreciated

Notes:

- This is the very first release, had not very much time to test with multiple players so there may be more bugs
- I think i will release a new version soon, including more configuration.
- The small lettersize of the messages may be problematic for some users with bad eyes, you can eventually change the lettersize in the filterscript by yourself. (Search for: "TextDrawLetterSize(Message[line], 0.20, 0.70);" (2x)

- I hope you will like this Filterscript, and if you're going to use this: PLEASE GIVE ME CREDITS!!!!
- I also would like to receive comments about this Filterscript.

Re: [FS]Second Chatbox!! =>Version 1.0<= - GenerationX - 30.03.2008

How can you do a like,

SendClientMessage(playerid,COLOR_BLUE,"You are Getting Hijacked Idiot");


How can you make any function Run in that Chat box :S

Re: [FS]Second Chatbox!! =>Version 1.0<= - Killerkid - 30.03.2008

pawn Code:
SendChatMessage(playerid, "You are Getting Hijacked Idiot");
Do that.

Uhh, i made this Filterscript to prevent such messages in the chat!

You can still use the normal chat,
but if you really really want it, use:
Code:
SendChatMessage(-1, "~b~You are Getting Hijacked Idiot");
But everybody will see that message.

You can use this function only inside this filterscript.
But if you're an experienced scripter, you can implement this filterscript in your own gamemode.
But im not going to explain.

No possible yet, this fs has 15 diffrent textdraws, and each has it's own permanent position.
So if you're using double-lines mode and youre not typing 2 lines, it's inevitable to have space (~n~-like) between 2 lines.
Maybe i find a solution to this problem, till than....

What key do you press to talk in that chat...?
Is it the same? pressing the key "T" to have the chat box thing come up?

Yes, it's exactly like normal chatting, but now your message will not appear in normal chat, but in the second chat.

Well done, nice work. As for the highlighted part (effect that the server may crash on executing gmx), have you tried destroying textdraw on disconnecting yet? There was a sa-mp bug I believe, it might be that.

ps.: I haven't checked the source yet.

Edit: I just did, well try destroying the text draw under OnPlayerDisconnect. And/ or make a command which 1.) destroys text draw for everyone, 2.) calls GameModeExit();
