New line for each command used

N3v3rM1nd · **Author**

Hi, i have this code block

PHP Code:


			
public plugin_init() register_clcmd("say", "cmd_hud_say")

..

public cmd_hud_say(id)
{
    new szArg[6], szText[192]
    read_argv(1, szArg, charsmax(szArg))
    read_args(szText, charsmax(szText))
    remove_quotes(szText)

    get_user_name(id, g_player_data[id][szAdminName], charsmax(g_player_data[][szAdminName]))

    if(function_get_flags(id) & ADMIN_ACCESS_CHAT || function_get_flags(id) & ROOT_ACCESS)
    {
        if(szArg[0] == '@')
        {
            set_hudmessage(144, 144, 144, 0.05, 0.5, 0, 6.0, 6.0, 0.5, 0.15, -1)
            show_hudmessage(0, "%s: %s", g_player_data[id][szAdminName], szText) 
        }
        
    }
    else
    {
        client_print_color(id, id, "%s No acces.", TAG)
        console_print(id, "%s No acces.", TAG)
        return PLUGIN_HANDLED
    }
    return PLUGIN_HANDLED
}

what can i do for every time someone use the command, the hud message to be shown on a new line?

            show_hudmessage(0, "%s%s: %s", szTag, g_player_data[id][szAdminName], szText);
        }
        
    }
    else
    {
        client_print_color(id, id, "%s No acces.", TAG)
        console_print(id, "%s No acces.", TAG)
        return PLUGIN_HANDLED
    }
    return PLUGIN_HANDLED

here you go static variables in functions are very useful.

Is working like a charm, but how can i get rid of "@", is kinda annoying

PHP Code:


			
public cmd_hud_say(id)
{
    new szArg[6], szText[192]
    read_argv(1, szArg, charsmax(szArg))
    read_args(szText, charsmax(szText))
    remove_quotes(szText)

    get_user_name(id, g_player_data[id][szAdminName], charsmax(g_player_data[][szAdminName]))

    if(function_get_flags(id) & ADMIN_ACCESS_CHAT || function_get_flags(id) & ROOT_ACCESS)
    {
        if(szArg[0] == '@')
        {
            const MAX_LINES_SHIFTING = 4;
            static iLine = 0;
            new szTag[MAX_LINES_SHIFTING];
            
            if(iLine > 0 )
            {
                for(new i=0; i < iLine; i++) szTag[i] = '^n';
            }
            
            iLine = ++iLine % MAX_LINES_SHIFTING;
            set_hudmessage(144, 144, 144, 0.05, 0.5, 0, 6.0, 6.0, 0.5, 0.15, -1);
            show_hudmessage(0, "%s^n%s: %s", szTag, g_player_data[id][szAdminName], szText);
        }
        else return PLUGIN_CONTINUE
        
    }
    else
    {
        client_print_color(id, id, "%s No acces.", TAG)
        console_print(id, "%s No acces.", TAG)
        return PLUGIN_HANDLED
    }
    return PLUGIN_HANDLED
}

well it depended on your if logic there here you go fixed.

PHP Code:


			

public cmd_hud_say(id)
{
    new szArg[6];
    read_argv(1, szArg, charsmax(szArg));

    if(szArg[0] != '@') return PLUGIN_CONTINUE;
    
    if(function_get_flags(id) & ADMIN_ACCESS_CHAT || function_get_flags(id) & ROOT_ACCESS)
    {
        new szText[192];
        read_args(szText, charsmax(szText))
        remove_quotes(szText)
    
        const  MAX_LINES_SHIFTING = 4;
        static iLine = 0;
        new szTag[MAX_LINES_SHIFTING];
        
        if(iLine > 0 )
        {
            for(new i=0; i < iLine; i++) szTag[i] = '^n';
        }
        
        get_user_name(id, g_player_data[id][szAdminName], charsmax(g_player_data[][szAdminName]))
        iLine = ++iLine % MAX_LINES_SHIFTING;
        set_hudmessage(144, 144, 144, 0.05, 0.5, 0, 6.0, 6.0, 0.5, 0.15, -1);
        show_hudmessage(0, "%s%s: %s", szTag, g_player_data[id][szAdminName], szText[1]);
        return PLUGIN_HANDLED;
    }
    
    client_print_color(id, id, "%s No acces.", TAG);
    console_print(id, "%s No acces.", TAG);
    return PLUGIN_HANDLED;
}

For another example of how to write subsequent HUD messages on a different line can be found with the built-in AMX Mod X command amx_tsay which can be found here (where 'tsay' is true).

When registering "say", read_args() and readargv(1, ...) will result in the same text string (because there is only 1 argument for the "say" command with the exception of the quotes on the string provided by read_args(). So, after removing the quotes, they are the same.

To print a string without the first X number of characters, you can reference the string variable as myStringVariable[X]. In this case, it will be szTest[1] in the show_hudmessage() function.

oh yeah i forgot about that for some reason i thought it had more than 1 argument.

code edited removed the @ sign from the message.
