Well, while in-game at my server, i noticed that taking the time to type a players whole name can have issues... So, how can i make a code so that players can type for ex. "id1" and it would show the player with id 1's name, instead of typing the wholke thing, it is probably something simple that i missed, but i have tried it myself...

um there are many ways, one could be by doing the following:

ex:

pawn Код:

stock GetName(playerid)
{
    new pName[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
    GetPlayerName(playerid, pName, MAX_PLAYER_NAME);
    return pName;
}
//then
CMD:getname(playerid, params[])
{
    new string[64];
    format(string,64,"The name of ID: %d is %s", params[1], GetName(params[1]));
    return 1;
}

I meant like, when aplayer is going to use a players name in the chat, like "Hey id0," and it would show as "Hey [name of id 0 here]"

loop + valstr + strfind then strdel + strins + break; = Success

That doesnt help... How to..?

[Jefff]

pawn Код:

public OnPlayerText(playerid,text[])
{
    for(new i,g = GetMaxPlayers(); i != g; i++)
    {
        if(IsPlayerConnected(i) && i != playerid)
        {
            new str[7],pos;
            format(str,sizeof(str),"ID%d",i);
            if((pos = strfind(text,str,true)) != -1)
            {
                new Nick[MAX_PLAYER_NAME + 1];
                GetPlayerName(i,Nick,MAX_PLAYER_NAME);
                strdel(text,pos,pos+strlen(str));
                strins(text,Nick,pos,128);
                break;
            }
        }
    }
    return 1;
}

If you are using foreach inc replace that loop

Thats not working, you can type id1 in game and it doesnt send the name or id1... It just sends a blank message

public OnPlayerText(playerid,text[])

    for(new i,g = GetMaxPlayers(); i != g; i++)
    {
        if(IsPlayerConnected(i) && i != playerid)
        {
            new str[7],pos;
            format(str,sizeof(str),"ID%d",i);
            if((pos = strfind(text,str,true)) != -1)
            {
                new strr[128];
                new Nick[MAX_PLAYER_NAME + 1];
                strcat(strr,text);
                GetPlayerName(i,Nick,MAX_PLAYER_NAME);
                strdel(strr,pos,pos+strlen(str));
                strins(strr,Nick,pos);
                SendPlayerMessageToAll(playerid,strr);
                return 0;
            }
        }
    }
    return 1;
}
