[BigBaller]

I am trying to make a private message plugin for all users, something kinda neat you know, its based off the amx_psay code for 2 reasons, I am learning and because it is already setup to log chat actions within the standard amx log files, I want to keep a eye on people if they are saying things privately just incase of disputs and other lil things.

but I cant seem to get the /msg username message to work

/* 

Private Messaging 0.1 
by BigBaller

Based from AMXX Team amx_psay command

*/

#include <amxmodx>
#include <amxmisc>

public plugin_init() {
    register_plugin("Private Messaging","0.1","BigBaller")
    register_clcmd("say /msg","pmsg",0," - Sends a private message to another user")
    register_concmd("amx_msg","pmsg",0," - Sends a private message to another user")
}

public pmsg(id,level,cid){
  if (!cmd_access(id,level,cid,1))
    return PLUGIN_HANDLED
  new name[32]
  read_argv(1,name,31)
  new priv = cmd_target(id,name,0)
  if (!priv) return PLUGIN_HANDLED
  new length = strlen(name)+1
  new message[192], name2[32],authid[32],authid2[32], userid, userid2
  get_user_authid(id,authid,31)
  get_user_name(id,name2,31)
  userid = get_user_userid(id)  
  read_args(message,191)
  if (message[0]=='"' && message[length]=='"'){
    message[0]=' '
    message[length]=' '
    length+=2
  }
  remove_quotes(message[length])
  get_user_name(priv,name,31)
  if (id&&id!=priv) client_print(id,print_chat,"(PM To - %s) %s Says :   %s",name,name2,message[length])
  client_print(priv,print_chat,"(PM From - %s) %s Says :   %s",name,name2,message[length])
  console_print(id,"(PM To - %s) %s Says :   %s",name,name2,message[length])
  get_user_authid(priv,authid2,31)
  userid2 = get_user_userid(priv)
  log_amx("Private Message: ^"%s<%d><%s><>^" pmsg ^"%s<%d><%s><>^" ^"%s^"",
      name2,userid,authid,name,userid2,authid2,message[length])
  log_message("^"%s<%d><%s><>^" triggered ^"amx_msg^" against ^"%s<%d><%s><>^" (text ^"%s^")",
    name2,userid,authid,name,userid2,authid2,message[length])
  return PLUGIN_HANDLED
}

I know I am missing something, anyone got some ideas on how to get the /msg command to work?

[_KaszpiR_]

as far as i remeber on old forum is a such plugin that manages private messages...

say command has 2 arguments
say and "chat",
and say works different than console commands

i had that problem on playtime addon
it detect say /playtime part_of_nick
the prblem was that i thought part_of_nick will be a next argument, say nr 3, but it was not
the whole command was

say "/playtime part_of_nick"

so i had to detect the /playtime

you may use the string exploding by space detection (problem can be if player has a space in his name)

Mmm I didnt know there was a plugin on the other forum related to this, maybe ill go find it and learn how to do it.

[BigBaller]

still i have no clue >_<

[BigBaller]

ANYONE!@#!@#!@ PLEASE hehe help?

[IceMouse[WrG]]

I might have an answer...
Use read_argv(2,...);
If not then make a different function for only say and then check argv 1 to see if its msg, then argv 2 for the name

[BigBaller]

Nope your first suggestion didnt work IceMouse.

Ill try the other one when I got some time.

[devicenull]

Try this simple fix:
Change the 0 in the cmd_target to a 1
That will probably fix it

dangit baller your gettin ahead of me AHH i gotta work faster!!


haha gj Baller

[BigBaller]

AHH

I see, I tried to do the say command in console and it returned as followed

] say /msg BigBaller testing Client with that name or userid not found

So basically it is not finding the clients name and sending them the message.

This is with devicenull suggestion compiled. I assume the same thing if cmd_target 0 becuase it didnt send the message either way.

Any clue on that, I beleive the only way I would be able to do this now is making a new function, am I correct?
