Well,people i have seen a lot of guys searching around for a /announce command or even if they have it it has some problem or something.So today i decided to show you how you can make a FULLY WORKING /announce command in ZCMD and sscanf.

First i will tell you the code then i will explain it....

Code:

CMD:announce(playerid, params[])
{
    
    if(IsPlayerAdmin(playerid))
		return SendClientMessage(playerid, "You are not allowed to use this command");

    new text[64], time, style;
    if (sscanf(params, "iis[64]", style, time, text)) return
        SendClientMessage( playerid,"Usage: /announce <style[0-6]> <time in ms> <text>");

    if (strlen(text) > 64) return
        SendClientMessage(playerid,"Message too long please shorten it ");

    if(style == 2) return SendClientMessage(playerid,"Bug with style 2 don't use it!");
    
    if (style < 0 || style > 6) return
        SendClientMessage(playerid,0x854900FF,"Invalid style");

    if (time > 20*1000) return
        SendClientMessage(playerid,"No longer than 20 seconds");

    GameTextForAll(text, time, style);
    
    return true;
}

Now to understand the code

1.

Code:

if(IsPlayerAdmin(playerid))
		return SendClientMessage(playerid, "You are not allowed to use this command")

This command checks if the player i rcon admin or not you can change this to normal admins only by seeing what is defined in your admin system.If the player is not rcon admin it send a error.

2.

Code:

new text[64], time, style;
    if (sscanf(params, "iis[64]", style, time, text)) return
        SendClientMessage( playerid,"Usage: /announce <style[0-6]> <time in ms> <text>");

This code first defines usage and parameters.

3.

Code:

 if (strlen(text) > 64) return
        SendClientMessage(playerid,"Message too long please shorten it ");

This checks if the text exceeds the length of 64 chars. if it does it sends and error.

4.

Code:

if(style == 2) return SendClientMessage(playerid,"Bug with style 2 don't use it!");

This checks if the style is 2 because according to GTA:SA style 2 wont disappear from the screen till you respawn so if the style = 2 then it sends an error.

5.

Code:

    if (style < 0 || style > 6) return
        SendClientMessage(playerid,0x854900FF,"Invalid style");

This checks if the style is valid that means between 1-6 or it sends an error.

6.

Code:

    if (time > 20*1000) return
        SendClientMessage(playerid,"No longer than 20 seconds");

This checks if the time of the gametext exceeds 20 seconds it sends an error if it does you can change this.

7.

Code:

GameTextForAll(text, time, style);

finally if there are no problems it sends a gametext to all.

Please +rep me if you like my work.Thank you.

Have a nice day......

You have some argument type mismatch.
It's

pawn Code:

SendClientMessage(playerid,COLOR,"Invalid style");

Not

pawn Code:

SendClientMessage(playerid,"Invalid style");

sorry i had forgotten now edited!!!!!!!!!

[Astralis]

its simple and nice. 4/5.

[Tanush123]

I think you made a error

pawn Code:

if(IsPlayerAdmin(playerid))
        return SendClientMessage(playerid, "You are not allowed to use this command");

Should be

pawn Code:

if(!IsPlayerAdmin(playerid))
        return SendClientMessage(playerid, "You are not allowed to use this command");

So it will only work for rcons

[§с†¶e®РµРe]

I am sorry for all errors as in my server i dont use rcon i use P_DATA etc etc so maybe i made a mistake soryy!

[Kuddie]

There's a couple of mistakes in the code but other than that it works great!

[Tanush123]

Apologies for my old post sayin about that it only works for players, atleast the good part is the announce command works like kuddie said. Good job §с†¶e®РµРe or w/e your name is XD.

Just use

PHP код:

SendClientMessage(playerid, -1, "Text"); 


Instead of puttin in the colour, etc... Plus atm you have argument type mismatch, you might wanna fix em.

[ComiGF]

Nice tut,i added this on my DM server xD

[§с†¶e®РµРe]

No Problem

[$$inSane]

simple and nice, thnx

I have read all the instructions, but when I compile I get Errors!!!:

Код:

C:\Users\Adonay\Desktop\samp03e_svr_R2_win32TEST\filterscripts\announce.pwn(1) : fatal error 100: cannot read from file: "zcmd" C:\Users\Adonay\Desktop\samp03e_svr_R2_win32TEST\filterscripts\announce.pwn(1) : fatal error 100: cannot read from file: "sscanf"

Here is the filterscript Filterscript:

Код:

#include <a_samp>
#include <zcmd>
#include <sscanf>

CMD:announce(playerid, params[])
{

    if(IsPlayerAdmin(playerid))
		return SendClientMessage(playerid, "You are not allowed to use this command");

    new text[64], time, style;
    if (sscanf(params, "iis[64]", style, time, text)) return
        SendClientMessage( playerid,"Usage: /announce <style[0-6]> <time in ms> <text>");

    if (strlen(text) > 64) return
        SendClientMessage(playerid,"Message too long please shorten it ");

    if(style == 2) return SendClientMessage(playerid,"Bug with style 2 don't use it!");

    if (style < 0 || style > 6) return
        SendClientMessage(playerid,0x854900FF,"Invalid style");

    if (time > 20*1000) return
        SendClientMessage(playerid,"No longer than 20 seconds");

    GameTextForAll(text, time, style);

    return true;
}
