Hi,

are there any documented restrictions for characters set for menu title?

"[" character in SetMenuTitle causes menu is not appear in the screen. No errors in logfile.

#pragma semicolon 1
#pragma newdecls required

#include <sourcemod>

public void OnPluginStart()
{
	RegConsoleCmd("menu_test", ShowMenu);
}

public Action ShowMenu(int client, int args)
{
	Menu menu = CreateMenu(ShowMenuHandler, MENU_ACTIONS_DEFAULT);
	menu.SetTitle("[HSCoins]");
//	menu.SetTitle("HSCoins]");
	menu.AddItem("alias", "name");
	menu.Display(client, MENU_TIME_FOREVER);
	return Plugin_Handled;
}

public int ShowMenuHandler(Menu menu, MenuAction action, int param1, int param2)
{
	switch (action)
	{
		case MenuAction_End:
			CloseHandle(menu);
	}
}

/*
public Action ShowMenu(int client, int args)
{
	Handle menu = CreateMenu(ShowMenuHandler, MENU_ACTIONS_DEFAULT);
//	SetMenuTitle(menu, "[HSCoins]");
	SetMenuTitle(menu, "HSCoins]");
	AddMenuItem(menu, "alias", "name");
	DisplayMenu(menu, client, MENU_TIME_FOREVER);
	return Plugin_Handled;
}

public int ShowMenuHandler(Handle menu, MenuAction action, int param1, int param2)
{
	switch (action)
	{
		case MenuAction_End:
			CloseHandle(menu);
	}
}

SM v.1.9.0.6226

SM doesn't care about the characters. It's likely to be the game.

[Dragokas]

I tested it in L4d1.

Can anybody confirm the bug in another games?

If it's a common issue, maybe better SM will raise an exception in log for such cases?
I spent a lot of time to find the reason.

It's unlikely we'd accept a change to SM to try to deal with something like this, even if it happened on every game. Documenting it isn't a bad idea, but keeping info like that up to date over time is always a problem.
