[Solved] Creating a tag above player names. - Ace_Menace - 30.09.2009

My idea is to have an afk command, and using one of the new features ( create3dtextlabel )
It will place "afk" above their heads.
.

Here's what I have so far.

I am asking for help because I don't understand the syntax of the function.
I placed 0s mostly, in hopes that it would work.

pawn Код:

if(strcmp(cmd, "/afk", true) == 0) {
      new afk;
      Create3DTextLabel(afk, 0xFFFF00FF, 0, 0, 0, 100, 0, 0);
      Attach3DTextLabelToPlayer(afk, playerid, 0, 0, 0, 0);
    return 1;
    }

What's the correct way to do this?

Try...

pawn Код:

if(strcmp(cmd, "/afk", true) == 0) {
      new Text3D:afk;
      afk= Create3DTextLabel("afk", 0xFFFF00FF, 0, 0, 0, 100, 0, 0);
      Attach3DTextLabelToPlayer(afk, playerid, 0, 0, 0, 0);
    return 1;
    }

      Attach3DTextLabelToPlayer(afk, playerid, 0, 0, 0, 0);
    return 1;
    }

Ah, now this is what I thought.

But I receive these warnings, (probably nothing...)

Firstly: What's on line 29 and 30? (See edit at the bottom of the post)
Secondly: Change Attach3DTextLabelToPlayer to this - Attach3DTextLabelToPlayer(afk, playerid, 0, 0, 0, 0.7); This will make the label appear above the name tag rather than at the level of the player, you can change the 0.7 part to get the desired position but remember that 1.0 is a fairly large step, you can also go in the negatives I believe.

Edit: Sorry, didn't read the code well enough. What you need to do is change the line that says-
new afk = Create3DTextLabel("afk", 0xFFFF00FF, 0, 0, 0, 100, 0, 0);

into this-

new Text3D:afk = Create3DTextLabel("afk", 0xFFFF00FF, 0, 0, 0, 100, 0, 0);

Thanks, this information should be added to the wiki.

You will need something more.. When the player returns Text3D it should be deleted, and for that we will need ID, therefore it tries the following:

In the top

pawn Код:

new Text3D: Label_AFK[MAX_PLAYERS];

In OnPlayerConnect

pawn Код:

Label_AFK[playerid]=INVALID_3DTEXT_ID;

In OnPlayerDisconnect

pawn Код:

if(Label_AFK[playerid]!=INVALID_3DTEXT_ID) Delete3DTextLabel(Label_AFK[playerid]);

In Command /afk

pawn Код:

new Float:x,Float:y,Float:z;
GetPlayerPos(playerid,x,y,z);
Label_AFK[playerid]=Create3DTextLabel("afk", 0xFFFF00FF, x, y, z+1, 100, 0, 0),Attach3DTextLabelToPlayer(Label_AFK[playerid], playerid, 0, 0, 0, 0);

In Command /iamback

pawn Код:

Delete3DTextLabel(Label_AFK[playerid]);

I hope gives right

Why can't I see the Label myself?

When you attach a 3D text label to a player it seems to do that, other people can see it though.
