Array must be indexed - Mado - 15.12.2012

I have got this code in my script and it says the array must be indexed (target), while I think I did. What might be the issue?

pawn Код:

new target[26];
            target = ReturnUser("inputtext");
            if(target != INVALID_PLAYER_ID)

Re: Array must be indexed - Huxley - 15.12.2012

I think the index was supposed to be MAX_PLAYERS.

Remove [26] as target is a id.

Can you explain that a little bit better?

pawn Код:

new target;
            target = ReturnUser("inputtext");
            if(target != INVALID_PLAYER_ID)

Target is a integer. Not a string. ReturnUser return's a ID, not a name.

Target gets the ID of a user. In your case, you're getting the user's name by inputtext.

pawn Код:

new 
    target
;
target = ReturnUser(inputtext);
if(target != INVALID_PLAYER_ID)

If you use on inputtext " ", that means that you're searching for a player named inputtext!

Actually it is a name, since the player must insert a full name in the dialog.

Alright I did this:

pawn Код:

new target = ReturnUser("inputtext");

And it compiles, but when I am ingame this part won't work:

pawn Код:

if(target != INVALID_PLAYER_ID)
            {
                //blabla
            }
            else
            {
                //blabla

            }

Ofcourse the //blabla contains code, but even if the name is a correct one it is recognized as an invalid one.

if(target != INVALID_PLAYER_ID)

This means if the target is NOT a valid playerid. Make sure your code isn't backwards.

Re: Array must be indexed - Konstantinos - 15.12.2012

If you read my post above, you'll understand that the name you insert into the dialog is not called to the ReturnUser, as you've got

pawn Код:

"inputtext"

and it searchs for a player named inputtext, not what you've inserted into the dialog.

That means the opposite from what you said. If the target is not an invalid player, continue!

Re: Array must be indexed - ikey07 - 15.12.2012

You should use IsPlayerConnected(target ); instead of if(target != INVALID_PLAYER_ID) because if someone enter player id what isnt connected, but is valid, your script wont work
