Код:
SendClientMessageToAll(0x33AA33AA, "playersnamehere has just stole a hobo's couch!");


Re: name in sendclientmessage - Annihalation - 18.07.2009

you would format a string

add this at the top of your couch stealing code

Код:
new pname[24], string[128];
GetPlayerName(playerid, pname, sizeof(pname);
format(string, sizeof(string), "%s has just stole a couch!", pname);
and change your "SendClientMessageToAll", "(player name) has just stole a couch!", change that to string (no quotes

should look like this

Код:
SendClientMessageToAll(<color>, string);
put your color in where <color> is

Re: name in sendclientmessage - member - 18.07.2009

The GetPlayerName should be before the format line i think. If that don't work try this:

pawn Код:
new string[128], adminname[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
        GetPlayerName(playerid,adminname,sizeof(adminname));
        format(string, sizeof(string), "%s has just stole a hobo's couch!",adminname);
        SendClientMessageToAll(0x33AA33AA, string);

Look carefully these lines:
pawn Код:
new pname[24], string[128];
format(string, sizeof(string), "%s has just stole a hobo's couch!", pname);
GetPlayerName(playerid, pname, sizeof(pname);
You use GetPlayerName AFTER formatting.. so at the moment format() is called, pname is empty.

Change the order of the format and the GetPlayername so it looks like this:
pawn Код:
new pname[24], string[128];
GetPlayerName(playerid, pname, sizeof(pname);
format(string, sizeof(string), "%s has just stole a hobo's couch!", pname);
