So I've got that dialog, and the inputtext is returning:

pawn Код:

dmin Name

No matter what I input, so if i input 'Jack' it will still return that.

Print result:

Код:

[10:28:07] dmin Name - dmin Name

(check the attachment to see the weird character it's inserting)

I've probably done some real noob mistake somewhere, but I can't notice anything wrong.

format(string, sizeof(string), "%s", strlen(inputtext));
THIS is the problem line
%s is for strings
but sterlen returns integer type

change this line to the following
format(string, sizeof(string), "%s", inputtext);

I always use "strlen(inputtext)" for cases like this, example:

pawn Код:

format(string, sizeof(string), "%s's response to your report:{FFFFFF} %s", GetPlayersName(playerid), strlen(inputtext));
SendClientMessage(target, COLOR_SERVER, string);

That works fine, how ever, in this case, I tried what you suggested, and just used "inputtext", and it worked fine. So thanks for that, still confused though lol.

You were doing some weird stuff like:

pawn Код:

format(string, sizeof(string), "%s", strlen(inputtext));
if(SetPlayerName(playerid, string))

You know what 'strlen' is right?

I'm not sure if this is what you're trying to achieve, but hopefully I'm on the right track.
