global string ? - NvidiaForTheWin - 07.11.2013

hi all.
my and some friends (6) are working on a new GM.
we are almost 20% done but we are having a problem here.
first , we are using this player inventory include
https://sampforum.blast.hk/showthread.php?tid=130436

what we want to do is a /sell and /accept command.
the commands works , but we have the item name in command params.
sscanf take it there is no problem.
but how do we put the item name (string ) GLOBAL so i can add the item in the inventory of the player that do /accept ?
we already tried pvars with no luck.

here are the code we actually have for that

command /sellitem

pawn Код:

CMD:sellitem(playerid, params[])
{
    new id;
    new itemname[30];
    new amount;
    new price;
    if(sscanf(params, "uiis[30]", id, amount, price, itemname))
    {
         SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_WHITE, "[USAGE] /sellitem [playerid] [amount] [price] [itemname]"); //-1 stands for white, change that with your colors if wanted.
    }
    else
    {
        new targetname[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
        new playername[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
        new string[128];
        new string2[128];
        GetPlayerName(id,targetname,sizeof(targetname));
        GetPlayerName(playerid,playername,sizeof(playername));
        Player[id][AmountHD] = amount;
        Player[id][PriceHD] = price;
        format(string, sizeof(string), "Player {808000}%s{FFFFFF}(%i) want to sell you %i %s for $%i. Use /acceptitem [sellerid] to accept.", playername, playerid, amount, itemname, price);
        SetPVarString(id,"ItemToAccept", itemname);
        SendClientMessage(id, -1, string);
        Player[id][PendingHD] = 1;
        Player[playerid][OfferingHD] = 1;
        format(string2, sizeof(string2), "Transaction sent to %s(%i)", targetname, id);
        SendClientMessage(playerid, -1, string2);
    }
    return 1;
}

command /acceptitem

pawn Код:

CMD:acceptitem(playerid, params[])
{
    new id;
    new itemname[30];
    new amount;
    new price;
    if(sscanf(params, "u", id))
    {
         SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_WHITE, "[USAGE] /acceptitem [seller id]");
    }
    else
    {
        new targetname[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
        new playername[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
        GetPlayerName(playerid,playername,sizeof(playername));
        GetPlayerName(id,targetname,sizeof(targetname));
        new string[128];
        amount = Player[id][AmountHD];
        price = Player[id][PriceHD];
        if(GetPlayerMoney(playerid) <price)
        {
            SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_RED, "Not enought cash.");
            Player[playerid][PendingHD] = 0;
            Player[id][OfferingHD] = 0;
        }
        else
        {
            if(Player[playerid][PendingHD] == 1)
            {
                if(Player[id][OfferingHD] == 1)
                {
                    GetPVarString(playerid, "ItemToAccept", itemname, 30);
                    format(string, sizeof(string), "Player %s(%i) accepted the transaction.", playername, playerid);
                    SendClientMessage(id, COLOR_GREEN, string);
                    
                    Player[id][PendingHD] = 0;
                    Player[playerid][OfferingHD] = 0;
                    AddItem(playerid,itemname,amount);
                    AC_BS_GivePlayerMoney(playerid, -price);
                    AC_BS_GivePlayerMoney(id, price);
                    
                    new string2[128];
                    format(string2, sizeof(string2), "%i %s have been added to your inventory and $%i have been given to %s(%i)", amount, itemname, price, targetname, id);
                    SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_GREEN, string2);
                    SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_GREEN, itemname);
                }
            }
        }
    }
    return 1;
}

the id , amount , price are all working perfect as they are Int and stored in enum ( global ).
now how can we do it for a string ( item name , which is text , undefined lenght )

we also tried new thestring[MAX_PLAYERS][30]; and new thestring[MAX_PLAYERS][] = "NULL"; and everything similar with no luck.

you can see we also tried using pvars.

thank you

ii did another fast test and this one seem to work. at least for me.

pawn Код:

CMD:setstring(playerid, params[])
{
    new pvarstring[128];
    new string[30];
    if(sscanf(params, "s[30]", pvarstring))
    {
        SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_WHITE, "[USAGE] /setstring [string]");
    }
    else
    {
        format(string, sizeof(string), "%s", pvarstring);
        SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_PINK, string);
        SetPVarString(playerid, "sellingitem", string);
    }
    return 1;
}


CMD:getstring(playerid, params[])
{
    new string[30];
    new pvarstring[128];
    GetPVarString(playerid, "sellingitem", pvarstring, 128);
    format(string, sizeof(string), "%s", pvarstring);
    SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_PINK, string);
    AddItem(playerid, string, 1);
    return 1;
}

the item ( entered in /setstring command ) is added to the inventory.
but i still need to wait my team to test i with some players because we had a script that was working for 1 player not the other.

if you have suggestion , other way , or anything tell me! it's gonna help my whole team.

thanks

Re : global string ? - NvidiaForTheWin - 09.11.2013

there is no way they could get it working.

the pvarstring part is working great ( player 2 can get player 1 pvarstring )
but the item wont add to inventory.
exactly like if the pvarstring was empty but it is NOT.

anyone can help us ?
