I want to make a command that changes server's current password immediately. A say command like; .svpass <newPassword>

I made a code that works but not properly. If I use "say .svpass 12345" via console, it works. But it doesnt when I try do this by pressing "y" key to say, then type .svpass 12345 , nothing happens.

Here is what I coded :

PHP Code:

#include <amxmodx>
#include <amxmisc>
#include <cstrike>

public plugin_init()
{
        register_plugin(PLUGIN, VERSION, AUTHOR)
        register_clcmd("say .svpass", "pass")
}


public pass (id) {
new newpass[32]
read_argv(1, newpass, 31)
server_cmd("sv_password %s", newpass)
return PLUGIN_HANDLED
}

edit:

tested and works:

PHP Code:

#include <amxmodx>
 
#define SVPASS_CMD ".svpass"
#define SVPASS_LEN 7 // how many chars the cmd has
 
public plugin_init() 
{
    register_clcmd("say", "hookSay")
}
 
public hookSay(id)
{
    static msg[192]
 
    read_args(msg, 191)
    remove_quotes(msg)
    trim(msg)
 
    if(!equali(msg, SVPASS_CMD, SVPASS_LEN))
        return PLUGIN_CONTINUE
 
    copy(msg, 191, msg[SVPASS_LEN+1]) // remove the ".svpass" from string
 
    server_cmd("sv_password ^"%s^"", msg)
 
    client_print(0, print_chat, "(test) Server password changed to: %s", msg) // you can remove this
 
    return PLUGIN_HANDLED
}

hmm, maybe it works. But I didn't like this method. Do we have to catch svpass in this way? Coz I have more "say" commands and I dont want to use all in one function and using if/elses

[Hunter-Digital]

You could use just IF

PHP Code:

public hookSay(id)
{
    static msg[192]
 
    read_args(msg, 191)
    remove_quotes(msg)
    trim(msg)
 
    if(equali(msg, SVPASS_CMD, SVPASS_LEN))
    {
        copy(msg, 191, msg[SVPASS_LEN+1])
        server_cmd("sv_password ^"%s^"", msg)
        client_print(0, print_chat, "(test) Server password changed to: %s", msg)
 
        return PLUGIN_HANDLED
    }
 
    if(equali(msg, ".hostname", 9))
    {
        copy(msg, 191, msg[9])
        server_cmd("hostname ^"%s^"", msg)
 
        return PLUGIN_HANDLED
    }
 
    return PLUGIN_CONTINUE
} 


Anyway, another method I do not know, search through plugins that does this thing you want and see their methods

[Cader]

thank you anyway, is it possible to use more than one register to "say" command? like ;

public plugin_init()
{
register_clcmd("say", "SVPass")
register_clcmd("say", "HostName")
}

Yes (I think, try it and find out). Also, I don't see why your first code won't work.

it's because you can't retrieve any other arguments from the say command, except for all arguments together like Hunter-Digital did, and then you need to separate each word.
