I've found myself reusing some cookie & menu int/bool functions recently.

Example with cookies and ints:

/**
 * Sets a cookie to an integer value by converting it to a string.
 */
public void SetCookieInt(int client, Handle cookie, int value) {
    char buffer[INTEGER_STRING_LENGTH];
    IntToString(value, buffer, sizeof(buffer));
    SetClientCookie(client, cookie, buffer);
}

/**
 * Fetches the value of a cookie that is an integer.
 */
public int GetCookieInt(int client, Handle cookie) {
    char buffer[INTEGER_STRING_LENGTH];
    GetClientCookie(client, cookie, buffer, sizeof(buffer));
    return StringToInt(buffer);
}

My question is: there is a way to get around doing things like this? The lack of something like this makes me thing I'm doing something wrong.

If not, would something like this be accepted into smlib? (with better naming and not-1.7 syntax of course)

I don't really see much of a use case for them, as they basically do just String to int conversion.
However if you want them in you can create a pull request (follow the contribution guidelines).

I was mainly curious if there was a better way to write menu/cookie logic when things aren't stringy by nature. Since I haven't seem similar functions before I thought maybe I was just doing things a stupid way.

Here's my general use case, giving menu options across an enum:

enum MapType {
    MapType_Current,
    MapType_Vote,
    MapType_Veto
};

...


    Handle menu = CreateMenu(SetupMenuHandler);
    SetMenuTitle(menu, "How will teams be setup?");
    SetMenuExitButton(menu, false);
    AddMenuInt(menu, _:TeamType_Captains, "Assigned captains pick their teams");
    AddMenuInt(menu, _:TeamType_Random, "Random teams");
    AddMenuInt(menu, _:TeamType_Manual, "Players manually switch teams");
    DisplayMenu(menu, client, MENU_TIME_FOREVER);


...

public SetupMenuHandler(Handle menu, MenuAction action, param1, param2) {
    if (action == MenuAction_Select) {
        int client = param1;
        g_TeamType = TeamType:GetMenuInt(menu, param2);
    } else if (action == MenuAction_End) {
        CloseHandle(menu);
    }
}

looks fine to me.

Does it support CS:GO chat colors?

[berni]

There is support for CS:GO hex color tags in the GIT master branch. See: https://github.com/bcserv/smlib/issu...mment-13351277
Named CS:GO tags will be maybe added later.

CS:GO does not support those.

[berni]

Then there is no support for special CS:GO colors at the moment, sorry.

Atleast something like this is supported, right? http://pastebin.com/rat0z1Cd

You can find the table of color tags on the first page of this thread.
I can look into adding support for new color systems when I find some time.
