Hello guys
I wanted a player name(nick name) plugin with these conditions,

1- Players can use max 12 words in their names ( remove extra words from name if they are using more then 12) 2 - automatically remove emojis or symbols from name (nicknames) , only alphabet and numbers are allowed

Could you add some examples of strings you not want in player names.

- Add in big,center text area, doesn't matter where you add.
- Then click upper-left "Untitled" title and fork, you then get new link, share that link here.

@bacardi ty for your reply
actually I don't know what is this and how to use this ,I will try to explain in my comment here.

i am trying to limit player names for my game server, that's why i want few limitation,
they can use max 12 words , numbers and alphabets and _ ( underscore ) are allowed. if they are using space then it should be auto merge, ex- if Raj Kaul then it will look like RajKaul
all other things are blocked or auto removed

check this image he is using emoji , i want to remove that too

[Bacardi]

You need space, to make words.

Do you mean max. 12 letters in names?

[raj kaul]

yes 12 max

[Bacardi]

Not sure how good is this.

- Regex pattern is [^a-zA-Z\d,._-]

• All simple letters a to z.
• All numbers 0 to 9.
• Comma ,
• Dot .
• Underscore _
• Hyphen -

- When removing not wanted character from player name, it get shorter or even empty.
Game set player empty name "unnamed" automatically, but this plugin change empty name to:
id_<userid> , example "id_53"

- out of topic. You can target player with userid, if you did not know. sm_kick #53 Bye

- Player name longer than 12 bytes is getting cut to 12 bytes.

*edit
You can enable debug_log mode by editing plugin source code:

#define DEBUG_ENABLE true // change false to true to start logging name replace, into sourcemod logs

just wanted to add one more thing in chat where players can see if their names are changing .
ex- x xx @ your name changed to xxx bcz you are using special text in your name

[Bacardi]

Try edit source code
then compile it to plugin.

PHP Code:

...    
    if(NameChanged[client])
    {
        if(IsClientInGame(client))
        {
            PrintToChat(client, " \x03[SM] '%N' your name changed to '%s' because you are using special characters in your name.", client, name);
        }
        
        SetClientName(client, name);
    }
}
...
