Hello i like this plugin alot so i went ahead and made some small bad modifications to suit my own needs however i caused myself some problems and hope you could help me pinpoint what im doing wrong.
Its about KeyValues and KeyValues.JumpToKey failing for me on random ocassions while working on others.
i have a file called playerprefs.ChatColors.txt which content is:
Quote:
"ChatColors"
{
"STEAM_1:1 4783317"
{
"color" "orchid"
}
}
|
on OnClientPostAdminCheck i do the following:
Quote:
g_hChatColor.Rewind();
static char sAuth[32];
GetClientAuthId(client, AuthId_Steam2, sAuth, sizeof(sAuth));
if (g_hChatColor.JumpToKey(sAuth, false))
{
g_hChatColor.GetString("Color", ChatTagColor[client], sizeof(ChatTagColor));
}
else
{
Format(ChatTagColor[client], sizeof(ChatTagColor), "default");
}
|
With this i read the value from the .txt file to assign a color to each player on connect if they have an stored entry.
CP_OnChatMessage then has the following:
Quote:
Format(sNewName, MAXLENGTH_NAME, "{%s}[%s] %s%s{default}", ChatTagColor[i], ChatTagchat[i], sTags[author][NameColor], name);
Format(sNewMessage, MAXLENGTH_MESSAGE, "%s%s", sTags[author][ChatColor], message);
|
on average in 4/5 reconnects that i do to the server the keyvalue suceeds with jumptokey (i tested around 3 hours yesterday). But the one other time the jumptokey method fails on me while entry is still untouched.
I feel rather confused about the jumptokey method appearing inconsistent to me right now.
Welp, thanks for reading.
Edit: ohwell nevermind it seems consistent now with jumptokey when values exist. I added ImportFromFile for the keyvalue on OnClientPostAdminCheck and now it seems to work correct everytime.
