get user name for comparing

shino · **Author**

so, i would like to get player's name and compare it with the name of player i have picked when he wrote something. here's the code:

Code:

new TA[32],LA[32],LeaderA[32],CheckSay[128],TeamA,TeamALeaderDefined,BCTeamARdy
public plugin_init() {
    register_plugin(PLUGIN, VERSION, AUTHOR);
    register_cvar("bc_teamA","NiP");
    register_clcmd("say","check");
    BCTeamARdy = 0
    TeamALeaderDefined = 0
    get_cvar_string("bc_teamA",TeamA,31);
}
public check(id) {
    read_args( CheckSay, 127 );
    remove_quotes( CheckSay );
    format(LA,31,"!leader %s",TeamA);
    format(TA,31,"%s ready",TeamA);
    if(equal(CheckSay,LA)) {
        TeamALeaderDefined = 1
        get_user_name(id,LeaderA,31); // *** got his name ***
        server_cmd("say %s has become leader of %s.",LeaderA,TeamA);
        client_print(id,print_center,"It is very important for you to not rename from now on!");
    }
    if(TeamALeaderDefined == 1) {
        if(equal(get_user_info(id,"name"),LeaderA)) { // here's the problem
            if(equal(CheckSay,TA)) {
                BCTeamARdy = 1
                client_print(0,print_chat,"%s is ready!",TeamA );
                set_cvar_num("sv_restartround",2);
            }
        } else {
            client_print(id,print_chat,"You are not authorized for this action")
        }
    }
}

this is just a part of the code, so i might forgot some things.

how should i get his name?

You could use get_user_name(id, name[], len)

An example:
new name[18]
get_user_name(id, name, 17)
client_print(id, print_chat, "Your name is: %s", name)

I cant figure out precicly what you want?¿?

But an example how to compare name with your list:

Code:

new name[18] 
get_user_name(id, name, 17)
if(equali(name[17],myName[17]) {
//event or function
}
else {
//event or function
}

You can use equal instead of equali.
equal is case sensetive
equali is NOT case sensetive

Code:

public check(id) {
        new LeadACheck[32]
    read_args( CheckSay, 127 );
    remove_quotes( CheckSay );
    format(LA,31,"!leader %s",TeamA);
    format(LB,31,"!leader %s",TeamB);
    format(TA,31,"%s ready",TeamA);
    format(TB,31,"%s ready",TeamB);
    if(equal(CheckSay,LA)) {
        TeamALeaderDefined = 1
        get_user_name(id,LeaderA,31);
        server_cmd("say %s has become leader of %s.",LeaderA,TeamA);
        client_print(id,print_center,"It is very important for you to not rename from now on!");
    }
    if(TeamALeaderDefined == 1) {
        if(equal(CheckSay,TA)) {
            get_user_name(id,LeadACheck,31);
            if(LeadACheck == LeaderA) {         
                BCTeamARdy = 1
                client_print(0,print_chat,"%s is ready!",TeamA );
                set_cvar_num("sv_restartround",2);
            }
        } else {
            client_print(id,print_chat,"You are not authorized for this action")
        }
    }
}

when compiling, it shows:

Code:

Error: Array must be indexed (variable "LeadACheck") on line 76

Cant se the line numbers, but my guess is that it is this one:

Code:

if(LeadACheck == LeaderA)

Try these i instead:

Code:

if(equal(LeadACheck,LeaderA))
or
if(LeadACheck = LeaderA)
or
if(LeadACheck[31]==LeaderA[31])

I havent figured it completly out the thing about = or == in if's

equal works great, thanks

in if's, == must be used
