Yea, and what you just did takes a lot of time for every command, and creates a extra string for every command. Who's the smart one now?

I'm just saying that creating stocks when they are not needed is not very smart.. but anyways 10/10 amazing tutorial.

Thank you for bringing that into light, I did write this awhile back so I had no clue what strfind did. Although what you're saying about the stock I do not agree on, the getname stock I've included will create the string when it's called and return it, saving a lot more memory/work than creating a new string every time you want an underscoreless name. (memory isn't a problem on modern computers though)

I've updated my main post. Thanks for the feedback as well.

pawn Code:

CMD:shout(playerid, params[])
{       
    if(isnull(params)) {
        return SendClientMessage(playerid, -1, "USAGE: /(s)hout [message]");
    }
    
    else {
        new string[128];
        format(string, sizeof(string), "%s shouts: %s!", GetName(playerid), params);
        ProxDetector(50.0, playerid, string, -1);
    }
    return 1;

Above all, strfind returns -1 if no occurence is found, causing an "out of bounds" exception and crashing the server. Please remove this from your post, OP.

Good observation, scrapped that strfind segment altogether, thanks.

if(strfind(name, " ") >= 0) name[strfind(name, " ")] = ' ';

Good tutorial, +REP.

[Stefan_Merce]

Im using this Thanks

[Ryan_Bowe]

EDIT: I figured it out, you just need to do this!

Code:

CMD:do(playerid, params[])
{
    new
        string[128],
        action[100];
    if(sscanf(params, "s[100]", action))
    {
        SendClientMessage(playerid, -1, "USAGE: /do [action]");
        return 1;
    }
    else
    {
   		format(string, sizeof(string), "* %s (( %s ))", params, GetName(playerid));
        ProxDetector(30, playerid, string, COLOR_PURPLE);
    }
    return 1;
}

lol, you have no idea how much this has helped me to understand a few things.

Thank you very much.

If you what you are saying is true, then the problem might be in the OnPlayerText callback.

Where do I need to type the prox dedector code and the above?
