How can I retrieve what a client say's with say command?

Reel mafioso · **Author**

So I'm working on a difficulty system which a client uses say commands like !easy or !extra etc. to change difficulty. Currently it's a big code with 7 functions, each dedicated to changing difficulty. 1 function is for easy, 1 for hard and so on. I want to, instead of having 7, have only 1 with a switch loop and use "!easy" "!hard" and so on as a CASE. Is there a way to do this?

not quite sure about this, and didnt test yet

PHP Code:


			
public plugin_init()
{
    register_clcmd("say", "handle_say")
}
public handle_say(id)
{
    new arg[10]
    read_args(arg, charsmax(arg))
    remove_quotes(arg)
    switch(arg)
    {
        case "!easy":
        //// so on
    }
}

}

Switch string isnt supported in pawn perhaps other lang like ... ( c# . vb . Java ... ) . Anyway change the size of args because it will read the args not the unique cmd . Use a check for string equali() ...
or just handle it it will be better ...

Example #1 is for using clcmd directly for handling certain commands.
Example #2 is for handling them with register_event

#1:

PHP Code:


			
public plugin_init() {
register_clcmd( "say !easy", "Handle_Easy" )
register_clcmd( "say !medium", "Handle_Medium" )
//...
}
public Handle_Easy(){
//...
}
public Handle_Medium(){
//...
}

#2:

PHP Code:


			
public plugin_init(){
register_event("SayText", "Handler");
}

public Handler() {
new arg[10]
read_args(arg, charsmax(arg))
remove_quotes(arg)

if ( equali( arg, "!easy" ) )
// handle easy

if ( equali( arg, "!medium" ) )
// handle med

//...
}

Hope you success in your coding ;)
Good luck.

// handle med

//...
}

Wow thanks! It worked just like I wanted it to. Although little not, xEhsaan, register_event didn't work for me (it kept saying invalid number of arguments, even though i quadruple checked I typed it correctly). So I had to use

Code:

register_clcmd("say", "set_lvl");

Thanks Shiina.Mashiro for the idea on the first one!

@Reel mafioso
just change this on the xEhsaan code

PHP Code:


			
register_event("SayText", "Handler");

PHP Code:


			
register_clcmd("say", "Handler");

and

PHP Code:


			
public Handler()

PHP Code:


			
public Handler(id)

Yes, I had done exactly such. But I just named Handler to set_lvl which is the name of the function that changes difficulty.
