hide cvar no notification in chat
i want to hide this only cvar whether admin trying to change or server or from another plugin
cmd : amx_cvar the_notification "0"
I don't want to hide all cvars by doing this amx_show_activity 0

check below screenshot


Main plugin :

PHP Code:


#include amxmodx 

new TEST_CVAR;

public plugin_init()
{
    TEST_CVAR = register_cvar("the_notification","1") 
    // say hello to get msg
    register_clcmd("say /hello","allied_welcome");
}

public allied_welcome(id)
{
   if(get_pcvar_num(TEST_CVAR))
     {
        client_print(id,print_chat,"Welcome to ALLIEDMODDERS");
     }
    else
    {
        client_print(id,print_chat,"the cvar is off");
    }
} 


from another plugin

PHP Code:


#include amxmodx

public plugin_init()
{
    register_clcmd("say /disable","disable_cvar");
    register_clcmd("say /enable","enable_cvar");
}

public disable_cvar(id)
{
      server_cmd("amx_cvar the_notification 0");
      client_print(id,print_chat,"off off off");
}

public enable_cvar(id)
{
    server_cmd("amx_cvar the_notification 1");
    client_print(id,print_chat,"on on on");
}

Have you tried using return PLUGIN_HANDLED?

[indraraj striker]

thanks for reply,

return PLUGIN_HANDLED is for chat that will not work for cvar

You shouldn't be using the amx_cvar command when setting a cvar from within a plugin. Simply use set_cvar_num().

thanks for reply,
i know set_cvar_num() will not give you notification when you change cvar
but i want to change that cvar from another plugin

And that's exactly why you should use set_cvar_num(). What's the issue?

That's not true, plugins don't own cvars. Did you even try it?

:facepalm:

Of course you get an undefined symbol, the_notification variable is not defined in your second plugin. Look at set_pcvar_num function prototype. The first argument is:

pcvar Pointer to cvar to set value of

It's a pointer to your cvar, this means you need a way to retrieve the pointer from the cvar name. If you simply search the api page for pointer you will get get_cvar_pointer function. It's argument is:

cvar Cvar name to find

Go figure from here what you should do.

Of course you are getting undefined symbol, what did you think that would do? There's a difference between set_pcvar_num and set_cvar_num. Also there's get_cvar_pointer if you would like to use the former solution.
