Hi guys, I would like to limit the amount of characters in a string to 39. This is what I have so far:

Код:

COMMAND:helpme(playerid, params[])
{
	format(string, sizeof(string), "%s-%s",sendername,params);
	RefreshHelpMeChatBox();
	return 1;
}

I need it to send a message to the user if they have used more than 39 characters in the string... how can I do this?

Thanks
