Sorry for the title now containing any useful info but, I couldn't explain it any simpler than this,

Well I was wondering how to make a Command which would SendClientMessageToAll, But would have the players name in the Message who sent it, E.G..

Goverment: Dear Citizens of Los Santos, Los Santos Police Officer [Players name], Is now on Duty!

If you could provide a code for me It'll be hugely appreciated, Thank you

You have to create a string like so:

pawn Код:

new string[128]; // String size is 128 as I dont know how big it will be.
format(string, sizeof(string), "Government: Dear Citizens of Los Santos Police officer %s is now ON duty.", GetName(playerid));

SendClientMessageToAll(COLOURHERE, string);
return 1;

This is a bad example. You can't assume those using this code would have 'GetName' implemented.

He didnt say. I will give him the function. Also that doesnt make it a BAD example, it just means its not complete, He needs to learn.

pawn Код:

GetNameEx(playerid) {

    new
        sz_playerName[MAX_PLAYER_NAME],
        i_pos;

    GetPlayerName(playerid, sz_playerName, MAX_PLAYER_NAME);
    while ((i_pos = strfind(sz_playerName, "_", false, i_pos)) != -1) sz_playerName[i_pos] = ' ';
    return sz_playerName;
}

Sorry i'm a noob with Pawno, So where do i put that code in my script?

[Dokins]

Below a function or command, not under any public.

[scottyishere]

You used GetName(playerid) function in your code and you gave him GetNameEx(playerid) which will output another error.

pawn Код:

GetName(playerid) {

    new sz_playerName[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
    GetPlayerName(playerid, sz_playerName, MAX_PLAYER_NAME);
    return sz_playerName;
}

This code should be posted anywhere in your script outside of any function or callback. (e.g. After all '}' of a function are closed)
