I'm pretty sure a lot of scripters are doing format + SendClientMessage for detect a function. Exemple

pawn Код:

format(output, 64, " This number is %d ", number);

then SendClientMessage to send the function to the text player. It will be more easly to do a function as printf but SendClientMessageEx instead. It's more useful, simply, faster. Ah and comatible with "strings", "integers" because are most used.

Lol, this can already be scripted and has been released on this forum a countless times already.

@Garsino compare format + sendclientmessage to printf directly.

pawn Код:

#define SendFMessage(%0,%1,%2,%3)                               do{new _str[150]; format(_str,150,%2,%3); SendClientMessage(%0,%1,_str);}while(FALSE)
#define SendFMessageToAll(%1,%2,%3)                             do{new _str[190]; format(_str,150,%2,%3); SendClientMessageToAll(%1,_str);}while(FALSE)

new FALSE = false;

SendFMessageToAll(red,"Hello there %s",someformat);

pawn Код:

new FALSE = false, _ex_string[156];
#define SendClientMessageEx(%0,%1,%2,%3)                               do{format(_ex_string, 156,%2,%3); SendClientMessage(%0,%1,_str);}while(FALSE)
#define SendClientMessageToAllEx(%1,%2,%3)                             do{format(_ex_string, 156,%2,%3); SendClientMessageToAll(%1,_str);}while(FALSE)

EDIT: FireCat beat me to it (sorta, I was typing the post before he posted).

Ow guys, come on... I wouldn't encourage the usage of the defining method. Instead use the direct ways provided by ******. That code can be found in YSI and other various places and it is really useful and better than format+SendClientMessage.

But still; he get the point.

I wouldn't recommend macros or function like that to anyone. What's so hard about format + SendClientMessage? If ur lazy and want your code less optimised then use it.

Lol, there isn't really any difference at all (depends on how you do it).
