How to send death messages to only admins. - total3clipse - 30.03.2013

When a player dies and you choose to senddeathmessage it then it sends it to the whole server, but how would I make it send to only admins as you can't do the for(new I=0; I<MAX_PLAYERS; I++) a there is no space to put I in the SendDeathMessage and I want the pictures, so I don't really want to do this by doing SendClientMessage.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me.

I think the death messages is only global (for everyone to see).
You can send only to admins with SendClientMessage or using textdraws that only shows for admins.

lets take a look at SendDeathMessage.

pawn Код:

SendDeathMessage(playerid /* the player who got killed*/, killerid /*the person who killed the player*/, reason /*how did he die*/);

In that I dont see a way you could possibly send a message to admins only as this is a native function by samp embedded already in the inc somewhere.

It's possible!

pawn Код:

stock SendDeathMessageToAdmins(killerid, playerid, reason)
{
    for(new i = 0; i < MAX_PLAYERS; i++)
    {
        if(IsPlayerAdmin(i)) SendDeathMessage(killerid, playerid, reason);
    }
    return 1;
}

pawn Код:

public OnPlayerDeath(playerid, killerid, reason)
{
    SendDeathMessageToAdmins(killerid, playerid, reason);
    return 1;
}

It shows the death message at the right side of the screen only to RCON admins.

If I change the rcon admin thing to my enum thing like if(p_data[i][AdminLevel] >= 1)... It would still work?

This won't work. It will spam the Death Message list, depending on how many admins are online. If there are 3 admins online, it will show each death 3 times in the list. You can't show the list only for admins, you should try SendClientMessage or something like that, if you want to report deaths only to admins.
