[Simple]How to Send Messages only to specific team - xMCx - 06.12.2012

The Beginning:
Hello , this is me again with another simple tutorial, today im explaining how to send messages to specific team/kind of
players that you cant do it with

pawn Код:

SendClientMessage

Function.

So lets start , with sending a message to/between admins . so they can only see it.
now forward a new function that called AdminMessage(color,string[])
color : is the color of the message
string: is the string that we want to send.
forwarding is to declare a new function

pawn Код:

forward AdminMessage(color,string[]);// add this on the top of your script[under includes ofc] or before the public version

now lets make the public version of it:

pawn Код:

public AdminMessage(color,string[])// we dont need line ender here ';'

now we are going to loop through the player, so to know who is the online admin from the players.

pawn Код:

public AdminMessage(color,string[])
{//a
        for(new i = 0; i < MAX_PLAYERS; i++)// i = the players.
    {//b
                 if(IsPlayerConnected(i))//we are using this function to check if the i(player) is online or not
        {//c
                        if (IsPlayerAdmin(i))//this function used to condition that i(player) have to be admin
            {//d
                         SendClientMessage(i, color, string);/*
                        now if the all conditions are true , the message going to be sent to the admins , 
                        SendClientMessage = to send a Message , i = the player , which now is an admin , 
                        color = the color of the message , string = the string that is going to be sent to the admins.
                        now this function will be included under a command or else , without a timer.
                        */
                        }//d
                   }//c
          }//b
          return 1;
}//a

and we are done ! , the function is now ready, but wait , ill give u an example of how to use it!
under OnPlayerConnect function add this:

pawn Код:

public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
    new pname[MAX_PLAYER_NAME],//the player name of its size (24)
        string[128];//declaring a string with size of 128
    GetPlayerName(playerid,pname,sizeof(pname));//getting it
    format(string,128,"*'%s' Has Connected!",pname);//formating the message
    AdminMessage(-1, string);//sending it to admins!, -1 = the color , string = the sent string
    return 1;
}

Finishing:
and we are done

, hope you learnt something today, if you didnt get something just reply and ill do my best
to help, thanks!

Not bad, but you could've explain abit more, other than that good job.

Re: [Simple]How to Send Messages only to specific team - [D]ry[D]esert - 06.12.2012

Good job. it will be good for newbies.

Re: [Simple]How to Send Messages only to specific team - iSaad - 06.12.2012

No it would be bad for newbies, as i always say "Tutorials" should contain the latest scripting methods,
so you are using normal loops instead of using foreach.

Edit: And why not using a stock ?

Re: [Simple]How to Send Messages only to specific team - gtakillerIV - 06.12.2012

Why use Foreach when you can use the normal loop? Seriously come on..

foreach is easy there is nothing in it that is difficult to understand.

Goddamn it, each scripter has his own choice, and a good job. Quite easy
