Get Player id from name - n00el - 17.01.2015

Hello, i have a varible 'nev' for e.g. "Thommas_Cook".
And the code is:

Код:

new id = GetPlayerID(nev);
if (IsPlayerConnected(id)) {
   // 1
}
else
{
   // 2
}

The second cames always, when the player (Thommas Cook) is connected, or not connected. Why?
I debug it with prinf(id) and printf(nev) and it's good, (id = playerid, 0), nev is Thommas_Cook

Use sscanf its lot more easier and has a specifier already for that
Example

pawn Код:

new id;
if(sscanf(nev, "u", id))
{
     //player is NOT connected
}
else
{
     //now 'id' contains id of the player who's name is in 'nev'
}

PS. You need sscanf plugin and include to use this function
