erros with strcat..? - MrCesar - 28.06.2017

Hey guys, i've been trying to compile this test script (not written by me)

Код:

if(playertextid == TDEditor_PTD[playerid][20])
    {
    	new pDialog[512];
		strcat(pDialog, ""COL_WHITE"Hi, and welcome to my "COL_RED"super duper awesome "COL_WHITE"server!\n", sizeof(pDialog));
		strcat(pDialog, ""COL_WHITE"Here are some "COL_RED"rules "COL_WHITE"that you should respect:\n", sizeof(pDialog));
		strcat(pDialog, ""COL_GREEN"1. "COL_WHITE"You are not allowed to spam.\n", sizeof(pDialog));
		strcat(pDialog, ""COL_GREEN"2. "COL_WHITE"You are not allowed to advertise.\n", sizeof(pDialog));
		strcat(pDialog, ""COL_GREEN"3. "COL_WHITE"You are not allowed to cheat/hack.\n", sizeof(pDialog));
		strcat(pDialog, ""COL_GREEN"4. "COL_WHITE"You are not allowed to spawnkill.\n", sizeof(pDialog));
		strcat(pDialog, ""COL_GREEN"5. "COL_WHITE"You are not allowed to insult others.\n", sizeof(pDialog));
		strcat(pDialog, ""COL_GREEN"6. "COL_WHITE"You are not allowed to beg for admin.\n", sizeof(pDialog));
		strcat(pDialog, ""COL_WHITE"There are special rules for "COL_GREEN"VIPs"COL_WHITE"! Please check\n", sizeof(pDialog));
		strcat(pDialog, ""COL_GREEN"/yaddayaddayadda "COL_WHITE"for more information!", sizeof(pDialog));
		ShowPlayerDialog(playerid, DIALOG_HELP, DIALOG_STYLE_MSGBOX, ""COL_BLUE"My Super Rules", pDialog, "OK", "Cancel");
  		CancelSelectTextDraw(playerid);
    }

and those are the erros am getting:

Remove the red part
strcat(pDialog, ""COL_WHITE"Hi, and welcome to my "COL_RED"super duper awesome "COL_WHITE"server!\n", sizeof(pDialog));

use format() to format your text

Why would that fix any errors?

And what would he be formatting? There is no use for format here.

How have you defined 'COL_WHITE', 'COL_RED' etc.?

#define COL_WHITE 0xFFFFFFFF
or
#define COL_WHITE "{FFFFFF}"
??
