I am getting the following error:
error 047: array sizes do not match, or destination array is too small
At this:

pawn Код:

new rankname[100];
    rankname = ranks[strval(rank)];
    return rankname;

(note: also tried as this:

pawn Код:

new rankname[50];
    format(rankname, sizeof(rankname), "%s", ranks[strval(rank)]);
    return rankname;

and since then changed the array sizes because they were too large..)

Ranks being defined as such:

pawn Код:

new ranks[8][100] = { // note in above NOTE it is not 100 but 50
"New guy" // further results omitted
};

I tried in multiple ways but it still wont let me return the string.

Change [8][100] to [] [] - which will let the pawn compiler determine how big the array is based on what data is in there.

Still the same

what are you trying to return

//edit:

try this

pawn Код:

new rankname[50];
    format(rankname, sizeof(rankname), "%s", ranks[0]); // 
    return rankname;

I'm not sure how just returning it would work without any use of another public.
Here:

pawn Код:

new rankname[50];
    format(rankname, sizeof(rankname), "%s", ranks[0]); // 
    return SendClientMessage(playerid, -1, rankname);

If that doesn't work please do show how ranks is used.

I don't want to return the first rank but the rank specified in a MYSQL tuple.

pawn Код:

new connectString[128], rank[50];
        cache_get_field_content(0, "rank", rank);
        format(connectString, 128, "* %s %s (%d) has connected", getRank(rank), getPlayerName(playerid), playerid);

pawn Код:

stock getRank(rank[]) {
    if(strlen(rank) >= 2)
        return rank;
    new rankname[50];
    format(rankname, sizeof(rankname), "%s", ranks[strval(rank)]);
    return rankname;
}

(because I have not found a way to check if the value is an int or a string, I am just sending a string and checking the length)


Edit:
Changed this:

pawn Код:

stock getRank(rank[]) {
    if(strlen(rank) >= 2)
        return rank;
//  new rankname[50];
 // format(rankname, sizeof(rankname), "%s", ranks[strval(rank)]);
    return ranks[strval(rank)];
}

And that seems to work with an array like this:

pawn Код:

new ranks[][] = {
{"new guy"},
{"R2"}
};

It just doesn't return to its normal way but breaks off everything :/ Any thoughts on that?
