hey so basicaly i want this line to say (playername) Has just stole a couch ! to all players so how would i get this code line to say there name at the start ?

Код:

SendClientMessageToAll(0x33AA33AA, "playersnamehere has just stole a hobo's couch!");

[Annihalation]

you would format a string

add this at the top of your couch stealing code

Код:

new pname[24], string[128];
GetPlayerName(playerid, pname, sizeof(pname);
format(string, sizeof(string), "%s has just stole a couch!", pname);

and change your "SendClientMessageToAll", "(player name) has just stole a couch!", change that to string (no quotes

should look like this

Код:

SendClientMessageToAll(<color>, string);

put your color in where <color> is

hmm it dont say there name it just dose this

[member]

The GetPlayerName should be before the format line i think. If that don't work try this:

pawn Код:

new string[128], adminname[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
        GetPlayerName(playerid,adminname,sizeof(adminname));
        format(string, sizeof(string), "%s has just stole a hobo's couch!",adminname);
        SendClientMessageToAll(0x33AA33AA, string);

Look carefully these lines:

pawn Код:

new pname[24], string[128];
format(string, sizeof(string), "%s has just stole a hobo's couch!", pname);
GetPlayerName(playerid, pname, sizeof(pname);

You use GetPlayerName AFTER formatting.. so at the moment format() is called, pname is empty.

Change the order of the format and the GetPlayername so it looks like this:

pawn Код:

new pname[24], string[128];
GetPlayerName(playerid, pname, sizeof(pname);
format(string, sizeof(string), "%s has just stole a hobo's couch!", pname);
