Spawning a car by name not using indivisual commands - RajatPawar - 21.04.2014

Hi, just saw a script with indivisual commands like /nrg and /infernus and what not! This is a small snippet, would probably help you! You need to do this using OnPlayerCommandText, if by a command processor like zcmd, use the callback OnPlayerCommandPerformed, like the first poster has stated below.

You need an array with all the names of vehicles.

pawn Код:

static const gNames[212][] = {
{"Landstalker"},{"Bravura"},{"Buffalo"},{"Linerunner"},{"Perrenial"},{"Sentinel"},{"Dumper"},
{"Firetruck"},{"Trashmaster"},{"Stretch"},{"Manana"},{"Infernus"},{"Voodoo"},{"Pony"},{"Mule"},

{"Rustler"},{"ZR-350"},{"Walton"},{"Regina"},{"Comet"},{"BMX"},{"Burrito"},{"Camper"},{"Marquis"},
{"Baggage"},{"Dozer"},{"Maverick"},{"News Chopper"},{"Rancher"},{"FBI Rancher"},{"Virgo"},{"Greenwood"},
{"Jetmax"},{"Hotring"},{"Sandking"},{"Blista Compact"},{"Police Maverick"},{"Boxville"},{"Benson"},
{"Mesa"},{"RC Goblin"},{"Hotring Racer A"},{"Hotring Racer B"},{"Bloodring Banger"},{"Rancher"},

{"Police Car (LVPD)"},{"Police Ranger"},{"Picador"},{"S.W.A.T. Van"},{"Alpha"},{"Phoenix"},{"Glendale"},
{"Sadler"},{"Luggage Trailer A"},{"Luggage Trailer B"},{"Stair Trailer"},{"Boxville"},{"Farm Plow"},
{"Utility Trailer"}
};

Then, you need to use the callback OnPlayerCommandText - contains cmdtext - which is the text sent by the player. We used strcmp to compare the strings and identify and handle commands.

pawn Код:

public OnPlayerCommandText(playerid, cmdtext[])
{
    for(new i = 0 ; i < sizeof(gNames); i++) // Loop through all the names of vehicles
    { 
          // You can delete the '/' in the cmdtext, or ADD / to every vehicle name. Deleting seems better instead of  adding, 212 times!
           strdel(cmdtext, 0, 1); // Delete the first char

           if(strfind(gNames[i], cmdtext, true) != -1))
           // Matched, so add 400 to the index (First index - 0, Landstalker model is 400..)
           {
                    new Float: x, Float: y, Float: z;
                    GetPlayerPos(playerid, x, y, z);
                 
                    new _temp = CreateVehicle( (400 + i), x, y, z + 5, 0, 0, 0); // Look at the wiki for the params
                    PutPlayerInVehicle(playerid, _temp, 0); // Put in _temp vehicle in driver seat
                    return 1;  // Break out of the loop
            }
     }

    return 0;
    
}

That's it! You can reduce the array to the vehicles you WANT to allow. But then you wouldn't add 400. (NRG, FCR, Infernus, etc)

It would work even if zcmd is being used, though not by using the basic way of creating commands using zcmd.

pawn Код:

public OnPlayerCommandPerformed(playerid, cmdtext[], success)
{
    //This callback is called always when a command is executed.
    if(!success) //It's better to check if it's not a command which is created by zcmd basically to avoid collision.
    {
      //Stuffs
    }
    return 1;
}

True that, forgot about the callbacks, thanks and edited.

I can't get though how i could script it using zcmd? i mean /car [name]

Very... Very Simple. There's a lot of functions already made to do this exact job, but this tutorial is still good.

Lol i thought car id

You could use the custom specifiers that sscanf offers for an easier way.

Did you actually bother to test this code for flaws and bugs?
