Is there a way to make this const changeable ?

PHP Code:

 new const zclass_info[] =  { "Infos about Zm" } 


I mean as an exemple :

PHP Code:

if is user VIP/Admin
new const zclass_info[] =  { "Infos about zm" }
else
new const zclass_info[] =  { "VIP/Admin Only" }

const is short for constant . . . By definition, the variable is no longer constant if it changes.

Also, you shouldn't create variables inside an if statement that are intended to be used outside the if statement.

So, you should declare the string as a normal variable indexed with the maximum number of characters that you expect might be used in there. Then, use copy() to populate the string variable:

copy(zclass_info, charsmax(zclass_info), "string goes here")

Just don't make it a constant variable and change it where you need it to change?

declaring it is simple by just typing "new variable[] = "new var"", also we're actually talking about arrays here..

If you wanna change the value of it, you can just use this "variable = "String""

If you want to change strings/text in your plugin you should do it with cvars.

If not use formatex or copy.

No! Do not assign a string to an array variable. You should always use copy, format, formatex or other string formatting functions. If you assign it directly, it is very easy to cause an overflow.

Actually I am pretty certain that it's perfecrly safe. The compiler should issue an error if you try to assign an array that's bigger than destination array.

I don't think this should be a problem since you don't tag the variable? I'm not sure though, correct me if i'm wrong.

Thanks all that was helpful.
