SetPlayerColour loading variable problem - DaRoderick - 02.01.2013

So, when a player sets his colour, this happens:

pawn Код:

PlayerInfo[playerid][pIconColour] = 0xE85A7AFF;

Now the colour works and is viewable on the map perfectly.

Then, it gets saved on disconnect:

pawn Код:

dini_Set(file, "pIconColour", PlayerInfo[playerid][pIconColour]);

And on player loading, this happens:

pawn Код:

format(PlayerInfo[playerid][pIconColour], 15, "%x", dini_Get(file, "pIconColour"));
SetPlayerColor(playerid, PlayerInfo[playerid][pIconColour]);

And after that function, the player marker shows up in complete black. How do I manage to fix this?

No, should be player color, not marker only. And that spawn color thing doesn't really help since there're no variables used there.

You can just do this:

Код:

// Loading the color from file:
PlayerInfo[playerid][pIconColour] = dini_Int(file, "pIconColour");

// Saving the color in a file:
dini_IntSet(file, "pIconColour", PlayerInfo[playerid][pIconColour]);

Because the hex value is handled the same as an integer. It's not like a string. (dini_Set and dini_Get are for strings.)

Re: SetPlayerColour loading variable problem - DaRoderick - 03.01.2013

Yes, but that will still not fix my problem hehe.

Re: SetPlayerColour loading variable problem - Basssiiie - 03.01.2013

Yes, it will. Have you tried it? Oh, and remove that format thing. You can just use this and it will work fine:

Код:

PlayerInfo[playerid][pIconColour] = dini_Int(file, "pIconColour");
SetPlayerColor(playerid, PlayerInfo[playerid][pIconColour]);

Re: SetPlayerColour loading variable problem - DaRoderick - 04.01.2013

Thanks for the help. Still, it doesn't work.

Now the playericon appears as

Код:

pIconColour=92247295

In the player's file.

On load char;

pawn Код:

format(PlayerInfo[playerid][pIconColour], 15, "%d", dini_Get(file, "pIconColour"));
SetPlayerColor(playerid, PlayerInfo[playerid][pIconColour]);

On saving;

pawn Код:

dini_IntSet(file, "pIconColour", PlayerInfo[playerid][pIconColour]);

But SetPlayerColor doesn't accept strings! So it wouldn't work anyway.

@DaRoderick: Pawn handles integers the same as hex values. These sets below will each to the same.

Код:

// Both functions set the player color to red:
SetPlayerColor(playerid, 16711680);
SetPlayerColor(playerid, 0xFF0000);

// Both lines add 255 to the number:
number += 255;
number += 0xFF;

// This will work too:
number = 0xFF00 + 255; // This will output 65535 or 0xFFFF, which both is the same.

If you don't know what number a hex value is, there's a converter here.

If the examples in my previous posts still don't work, try making the pIconColour item in your enum a integer instead of a string.

Re: SetPlayerColour loading variable problem - DaRoderick - 05.01.2013

So, for example, you suggest that when a player chooses a colour, he doesn't do

pawn Код:

PlayerInfo[playerid][pIconColour] = 0xE85A7AFF;

but

pawn Код:

PlayerInfo[playerid][pIconColour] = 3898243839;

Right?

Above.
