About strings - Zex Tan - 26.07.2013

I was wondering how to edit strings such as

Quote:

Player A: Le anonymous is talking right ...
here

Something like, when the string text is too long it will continue to the bottom after the word "right".

I won't copy anyone else's code, so I'm going to quote what I found using the SEARCH button.

        {
            strdel(buffer, 0, EX_SPLITLENGTH+5);
            if(len-(i*EX_SPLITLENGTH)>EX_SPLITLENGTH)
            {
                strmid(buffer, final, EX_SPLITLENGTH*i, EX_SPLITLENGTH*(i+1));
                format(buffer, sizeof(buffer), "%s ...", buffer);
            }
            else
            {
                strmid(buffer, final, EX_SPLITLENGTH*i, len);
            }
            SendClientMessage(playerid, color, buffer);
        }
    }
    else
    {
        SendClientMessage(playerid, color, final);
    }
}

Usage:

SendSplitMessage(playerid, color, msg);

EDIT:

The above code is just more or less an example and may or may not be really fast processing your strings. Your probably better off using split.
