hello guys..i know topics with this name already exists, i was searching through them and i couldnt make it to work...any help is welcomed...what im tryting to do:

plugin1: print player's country (from plugin2)

client_print( id, print_chat, "he is from %s", player_country( id ) )

so what should plugin2 do with set_string, i cant get these get_params, no matter which stype i try to use, too confusing to me...tryed almost every combination, and no good results

plugins2 has that string which is storing every player's country:
g_szCountry[ 33 ][ 32 ]

thanks in advance!

You can't just return strings, you have to pass them byref.

PHP Code:

#define MAX_PLAYERS 32

new g_szCountry[ MAX_PLAYERS + 1 ][ 32 ];

// get_player_country( id, szOutPut[ ], iSize )
public YourNative( iPlugin, iParams )
{
    set_string( 2, g_szCountry[ get_param( 1 ) ], get_param( 3 ) );
} 


PHP Code:

public plugin_init( )
{
    register_clcmd( "say /country", "MyCountry" );
}

public MyCountry( id )
{
    new szCountry[ 32 ];
    get_player_country( id, szCountry, charsmax( szCountry ) );

    client_print( id, print_chat, "My country is: %s", szCountry );
}

player_country() should be the same as all other functions that are used to get strings e.g. get_user_name(), get_user_authid(), etc. I.e. it should be player_country(id, szString, iLengthOfString) then you would do this:

new szCountry[32]
player_country(id, szCountry, charsmax(szCountry))
client_print(id, print_chat, "%s", szCountry)

So, in your custom native, you need to populate szString with no more than iLengthOfString characters.

It's simple, you simply set your variable's values to your native's parameters and then use the native to retrieve that value.
