Re: hide cvar no notification in chat

Have you tried using return PLUGIN_HANDLED?

Re: hide cvar no notification in chat

thanks for reply,

return PLUGIN_HANDLED is for chat that will not work for cvar

Re: hide cvar no notification in chat

You shouldn't be using the amx_cvar command when setting a cvar from within a plugin. Simply use set_cvar_num().

And that's exactly why you should use set_cvar_num(). What's the issue?

That's not true, plugins don't own cvars. Did you even try it?

Re: hide cvar no notification in chat

:facepalm:

Of course you get an undefined symbol, the_notification variable is not defined in your second plugin. Look at set_pcvar_num function prototype. The first argument is:

Quote:

pcvar
Pointer to cvar to set value of

It's a pointer to your cvar, this means you need a way to retrieve the pointer from the cvar name. If you simply search the api page for pointer you will get get_cvar_pointer function. It's argument is:

Quote:

cvar
Cvar name to find

Go figure from here what you should do.
