Hello everyone. I am not a pro scripter and thus want a help from you all.I wante to make a hidebadge command. It means that the player can hide his original nametag colour(the colour on your names when you press TAB)...

I used sscanf.. But I can't use it properly so I am using isnull..

First I defined these things at the top of my gamemode.
//---Some functions---//
#if !defined isnull
#define isnull(%1) \
((!(%1[0])) || (((%1[0]) == '\1') && (!(%1[1]))))
#endif
//----end of these functions---//

Then I used this command...(I use i-zcmd to make commands..)

CMD:hbadge(playerid, params[])
{

if(isnull(params)) return SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_RED, "USAGE: /hbadge [FBI,LSPD,OFF]");
else if(strcmp(params,"lspd",true) == 0)
{
SetPlayerColor(playerid,COLOR_BLUE);
SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_WHITE, "Badge on.");

}
else if(strcmp(params,"fbi",true) == 0)
{
SetPlayerColor(playerid,COLOR_LIGHTERBLUE);
SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_WHITE, "Badge on.");

}
else if(strcmp(params,"off",true) == 0)
{
SetPlayerColor(playerid,COLOR_WHITE);
SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_WHITE, "You're badge has been removed");

}
return 1;
}
//---End of command---//


I added isnull because if they just wrote /hbadge then a message would say them "Correct Usage:blah blah blah.."
Everything works perfect... The badge works..
But when I type only /hbadge the SendClientMessage with correct usage doesn't show up.. Please help..
If you think should use sscanf please mention how...
I say again.. I am a noob scripter..not as pro like you all..
Thanks...
Graceful if you help..

I Suggest you use a dialog response
because that is much easier and you can understand it better.

Do you want me to make it for you?

If you still need the old one, You Haven't returned a value so,

Code:

CMD:hbadge(playerid, params[])
{
	if(isnull(params)) return SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_RED, "USAGE: /hbadge [FBI,LSPD,OFF]");
	else if(strcmp(params,"lspd",true) == 0)
	{
		SetPlayerColor(playerid,COLOR_BLUE);
		SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_WHITE, "Badge on.");
		return 1;
	}
	else if(strcmp(params,"fbi",true) == 0)
	{
		SetPlayerColor(playerid,COLOR_LIGHTERBLUE);
		SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_WHITE, "Badge on.");
		return 1;
	}
	else if(strcmp(params,"off",true) == 0)
	{
		SetPlayerColor(playerid,COLOR_WHITE);
		SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_WHITE, "You're badge has been removed");
		return 1;
	}
   return 1;
}

Please rep me if it helped!

You're using an else-if statement for nothing. You're returning a value in every single statement making the else-if statements redundant. Here's an example with sscanf:

PHP Code:

CMD:hbadge(playerid, params[]) {
    new
        faction[5];
    if(sscanf(params, "s[5]", faction)) {
        return SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_RED, "USAGE: /hbadge [FBI, LSPD, OFF]");
    }
    if(!strcmp(faction, "fbi", true)) {
        SetPlayerColor(playerid, COLOR_BLUE);
        SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_WHITE, "Badge on.");
    }
    else if(!strcmp(faction, "lspd", true)) {
        SetPlayerColor(playerid, COLOR_LIGHTERBLUE);
        SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_WHITE, "Badge on.");
    }
    else if(!strcmp(faction, "off", true)) {
        SetPlayerColor(playerid, COLOR_WHITE);
        SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_WHITE, "Your badge has been removed.");        
    }
    else {
        SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_RED, "You've entered an incorrect faction name.");
    }
    return true;
} 


The exclamation point before the strcmp function is the same as doing "== 0" at the end of the strcmp function.
