Hey Guys...
I Added a command which sets the name on %s[GRoVe],

but how to get my old name ?
To Change It To %s[Ballas] if he spawns as one ^^

[Weirdosport]

Is the name:

Weirdosport[Grove]

pawn Code:

GetPlayerName(playerid, Name, sizeof(Name));
strdel(string, strlen(string)-7, strlen(string));
SetPlayerName(playerid, Name);

_________________________________________________

[Grove]Weirdosport?

pawn Code:

GetPlayerName(playerid, Name, sizeof(Name));
strdel(Name, 0, 7);
SetPlayerName(playerid, Name);

The second is easier, but the first isn't impossible.

Of course for different gang tags you'd have to change the number 7.



[Grove]


1234567



To suit the gang-tag length.

Damn I don't understand you Wierdo and I have the same problem, get an old name after changing it to whatever...

[Weirdosport]

strlen in a function, it works out the length of the name the player entered.

EDIT: This script only works with tag lengths that are set in stone, if you had players with varying tag lengths it wouldn't work.

yeah cos' I lost some of letters of my previous name ( can u give me the code to make for example /lv it will make a tag [LV]my_name and then when I type /ls it will just remove that [LV] tag ?? sorry i am noob but i really want to learn it thanks

It seemed to work on my quick test but i'll try it again when I get home later, might be a long wait..

PM me or something to remind me!

[Bearfist]

Strdel doesn't work o.O =(

I tried both Variations but none worked ...

[Weirdosport]

It works for me...

pawn Code:

#include <a_samp>

public OnFilterScriptInit()
{
    new string[20] = "Weirdosport[LS]";
    print("\n");
    printf("Before: %s", string);
    strdel(string, strlen(string)-4, strlen(string));
    printf("After: %s",string);
    print("\n");
    string = "[LS]Weirdosport";
    printf("Before: %s", string);
    strdel(string, 0, 4);
    printf("After: %s",string);
    print("\n");
    return 1;
}

Compile + load that, it works.

Made some stocks to use:

pawn Code:

stock RemoveClanTagFromFront(playerid,taglen)
{
    new string[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
    GetPlayerName(playerid, string, sizeof(string));
    strdel(string, 0, taglen);
    SetPlayerName(playerid, string);
    return 1;
}

stock RemoveClanTagFromEnd(playerid,taglen)
{
    new string[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
    GetPlayerName(playerid, string, sizeof(string));
    strdel(string, strlen(string)-taglen, strlen(string));
    SetPlayerName(playerid, string);
    return 1;
}

"taglen" is counted as:

• [LS] = 4
• [Grove] = 7

[Joe Staff]

pawn Code:

RemoveGangTag(name[])
{
  new first,last;
    for(new i; i<strlen(name);i++)
    {
        
        if(strfind(name,"[",true,i)>-1)first = strfind(name,"[",true,i);
        else continue;
    }
    last = strfind(name,"]",true,first);
    printf("%d,%d",first,last);
    if(first>-1)
    {
        if(last>first)
        {
            strdel(name,first,last+1);
        }
    }
    if(strfind(name,"[",true)>-1)RemoveGangTag(name);
}

Use

pawn Code:

OnPlayerConnect(playerid,ip[])
{
  new name[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
  GetPlayerName(playerid,name,sizeof(name));
  RemoveGangTag(name);
  SetPlayerName(playerid,name);
}

=)


EDIT* Fixed it a couple times through lol
