Paste ID into Name - DeathOnaStick - 06.08.2009

Hey Community...

Here i go again with another question:
Today i just tried to paste the Id of the Player into his name, and used this code:

Код:

public OnPlayerSpawn(playerid)
{
new CurrentName[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
new CurrentID;
new NewName[128];
GetPlayerName(playerid,CurrentName,sizeof(CurrentName));
CurrentID = GetPlayerID("CurrentName");
format(NewName,sizeof(NewName),"%s[%i]",CurrentName,CurrentID);
SetPlayerName(playerid,NewName);

return 1;
}

It doesnt give me Errors or warnings, but the problem is, that it doesnt work :/
Pls tell me what i did wrong!

Greetings from Germany,
DeathOnaStick

Why do you need GetPlayerID? It's already stored in "playerid"

By the way, its not working because you put "CurrentName" in quotes, which makes it a string, its searching for "CurrentName" and not the name thats defined in the variable, just change it to:

GetPlayerID(CurrentName);

Also, you don't need to do that anyway, just add playerid to the end of the format instead of CurrentID

Because i needed to use it in format.... didnt know how to do it another way =D... Seemed to be the easiest way for me
