Hi, I'm new to scripting PAWN so I require a little help..

Okay, here's the problem:

How do I add text when I'm selecting classes?

For example, I select the Police class; I want it to say 'POLICE OFFICER' above.

Thank-you!

In order to do that you must know the following:
the classid
OR
the skinid

skinid = The ID of the skin.
classid = The numer of the class, for example if I did this:
AddPlayerClass(73,...);
AddPlayerClass(75,...);
'... stands for cordinates weapons etc... not required for this example

And 75 is a skin of a policeman (it is not, it's just an example), then the classid is 2, and the skin id is 75.

so now that you know what is each, do the following:
in the public OnPlayerRequestClass(playerid,classid)

if you want to work with classid:

pawn Код:

switch(classid)
{
    case 0..3: {
        GameTextForPlayer(playerid, "grove", 1000, 5);
    }
    case 10..17: {
        GameTextForPlayer(playerid, "ballas", 1000, 5);
    }
    case 18..20: {
        GameTextForPlayer(playerid, "Police", 1000, 5);
    }
}

This code means:
if the class id is from 0 to 3 (0 or 1 or 2 or 3) then write "Grove"
if the class is from 10 to 17 (10 or 11 or 12 or 13 and so on) then write Ballas...
same thing with 18..20

if you want to go by Skinid then do the following:

pawn Код:

new skinid = GetPlayerSkin(playerid);
    switch(skinid)
    {
        case 0,5,4,3: {
            GameTextForPlayer(playerid, "abc", 1000, 5);
        }
        case 8,2,8,9: {
            GameTextForPlayer(playerid, "efg", 1000, 5);
        }
        case 25,78,92: {
            GameTextForPlayer(playerid, "hijk", 1000, 5);
        }
        case 18,54,21: {
            GameTextForPlayer(playerid, "lmnop", 1000, 5)
        }
    }

This means that if the skinid of the player is 0 or 5 or 4 or 3 then write "abc" and so on...

hope you understood, good luck.

You have to make Teams if you want it to look better.

Add this to OnPlayerSpawn

NICKBUGUN .. there's something wrong .. where's the GetPlayerName , and it's not %d ( integer ) it's %s ( str )

[Eradicator]

Err Nick.. That isn't what he asked for, and you used an int (%d) in the format message so it wouldn't say his name.

EDIT: Damn, russiany beat me to it.

Thank-you!

Sorry about the Double-post, I was a bit confused on which topic to put it under;

Anyway, Thanks a bunch!
