hi

How would I be able to replace the ^ symbol in a name?

I've tried this but it doesn't work
replace_all(szName, 31, "^4", "^1" );

[swapped]

replace_all(szName, 31, "^", " " );

Works thank you for the quick help.

There is another issue which occurred before as well.

PHP Code:

replace_all(szName, 31, "^^4", "^^1" ); 


When someone has a space in their name in example players name = "^4Dirk^4 uNITED^4"
It would take everything till the space and new nickname becomes = "^1Dirk^1"
Im assuming replace_all by default would remove spacing.
Are there symbols to maintain spacing in users name?

cont szName2
for(new i=0;i<=((sizeof szName)-1);i++)
{
if(szName[i]!='^^')
{
szName2[i]=szNAme[i+1]
i++
}
}

someone fix it if the transition between c++ and pawn is wrong, but this would be the very basic handling of what you want, probably what replace_all does(except it changes to what you want instead of deleting)

I've tried the following

PHP Code:

replace_all(szName, 31, " ", "^n" ); 


Which didnt work ofcourse, I'll try that code out aron.

replace_all does not touch the spacing unless it is passed as the "what". You must have something else wrong

Yes just sorted it.

PHP Code:

console_cmd(id,"name %s", szName); 


----------->

PHP Code:

console_cmd(id,"name ^"%s^"", szName); 


Noobishly overlooked

For changing someones name, use engclient_cmd(id, "name", "new name here").

Interesting, can you also tell me the reason why or what the difference is?
Would guess one difference to be the spacing to be of no issue
