Im trying to run a code to check if the players steamid matches with what I have stored when they connect to the server. It should then say Match, but keeps saying No Match. Im not sure what im doing wrong, Ive tried soo many different variations and still nothing. right now, this is only a check to see how I would detect certain clients connecting. I would later make it alert admins of players that connected to the server so they can be watched.

#include <sourcemod>

public Plugin:myinfo = 
{
    name = "New Plugin",
    author = "Unknown",
    description = "<- Description ->",
    version = "1.0",
    url = "<- URL ->"
}
new String:g_SteamId[32] = "STEAM_0:0:42468081";

public OnPluginStart()
{
}
public OnClientConnected()
{
    new Clients = GetMaxClients();
    for (new i=1;i<=Clients;i++)
    {
        decl String:auth[33];
        GetClientAuthString(i, auth, sizeof(auth));
        if (IsClientAuthorized(i) && StrEqual(auth[32], g_SteamId, true))
        {
            PrintToChatAll("Match");
        }    
        else
        {
            PrintToChatAll("No Match");
        }
    }
}

PHP Code:

#include <sourcemod>

new String:g_SteamId[32] = "STEAM_0:0:42468081";

public OnClientAuthorized(client, const String:auth[])
{
    if (IsFakeClient(client))
    {
        // Ignore bots
        return;
    }

    if (StrEqual(auth, g_SteamId))
    {
        PrintToConsole(client, "Match");
    }
    else
    {
        PrintToConsole(client, "No Match");
    }
}

ohh, thats a forward, i didnt even look at the api for onclientauthorized. Ill give this a try. Thanks

[Static2601]

well that does work good and i was wondering how I would get the players other information like current name.

I see that I can getclientofuserid, but I need to first get their userid but how to I get this if I only had their steam id? I think I need to list all clients and get their userid's, then getclientauthstring and see which ones match and take that one and getclientofuserid... Im so lost with this. I normally do this by the trial and error method which I will try all the wrong ways before i find the right way, lol. This wasted alot of my time.

Sourcepawn is the first language ive learned or still learning. Im still struggling to learn everything, though I have learned alot so far and Im always on this site looking at how others made something work. There is still a lot I have problems with but I know where to go when I need help.

[Static2601]

yup Ive seen that but im not sure how I would use it to get their name from their steamId.

[Static2601]

Ok I figured it how to do it, but if 2 people connect at the same time, could it possibly get the other persons info instead of the one its looking for?

new String:g_SteamId[32] = "STEAM_0:0:42468081";
public OnPluginStart()
{
}
public OnClientAuthorized(client, const String:auth[])
{
    if (StrEqual(auth, g_SteamId))
    {
        decl String:Name[MAX_NAME_LENGTH]; decl String:IP[18];
        GetClientName(client, Name, sizeof(Name));
        GetClientIP(client, IP, sizeof(IP));
        PrintToChatAll("SteamId: %s, Name: %s, IP: %s", g_SteamId, Name, IP);
    }
}

It's fairly rare that you'll need to use GetClientName. For most situations, the %N format specifier works fine.

PHP Code:

new String:g_SteamId[32] = "STEAM_0:0:42468081";
public OnClientAuthorized(client, const String:auth[]) {
    if(StrEqual(auth, g_SteamId)) {
        decl String:IP[18];
        GetClientIP(client, IP, sizeof(IP));
        PrintToChatAll("SteamID: %s, Name: %N, IP: %s", auth, client, IP);
    }
}

Well, I use the name in other places in the plugin like in a menu, it will say options for %s, Name. But im mostly wondering how I can get that clients index or whatever, that wont change and I can call it when i need to, say I need to get there current health or number of deaths. Maybe target will work? Can I target by Steam Id or can I set a variable that only refers to that client?
