I've come across this in the SM documentation:

PHP Code:

public OnPluginStart()
{
    RegConsoleCmd("say", Command_Say)
}
 
public Action:Command_Say(client, args)
{
    new String:text[192]
    GetCmdArgString(text, sizeof(text))
 
    new startidx = 0
    if (text[0] == '"')
    {
        startidx = 1
        /* Strip the ending quote, if there is one */
        new len = strlen(text);
        if (text[len-1] == '"')
        {
            text[len-1] = '\0'
        }
    }
 
    if (StrEqual(text[startidx], "/ff"))
    {
        new Handle:ff = FindConVar("mp_friendlyfire")
        if (GetConVarInt(ff))
        {
            PrintToConsole(client, "Friendly fire is enabled.")
        } else {
            PrintToConsole(client, "Friendly fire is disabled.")
        }
        /* Block the client's messsage from broadcasting */
        return Plugin_Handled
    }
 
    /* Let say continue normally */
    return Plugin_Continue
} 


but can't figure out how to change it to report the actual value of mp_friendlyfire. What am I missing?

That looks like it should work fine. What exactly do you want it to do?

I want it to report the actual value, i.e. in this example 1 or 0, rather than say enabled/disabled

[RM_Hamster]

All you would need to change is the two PrintToConsole lines to whatever you want them to say. 1 is enabled and 0 is disabled, so you could easily just change it to:

        if (GetConVarInt(ff))
        {
            PrintToConsole(client, "mp_friendlyfire is 1.")
        } else {
            PrintToConsole(client, "mp_friendlyfire is 0.")
        }

I see where you're coming from, but thats not what I'm after. mp_friendlyfire is just in the example code I'm trying to adapt. I would like to be able to adapt it to report other stuff like gravity, plugin version etc, so I'm trying to suss how to get the actual value of a given cvar to display.

[bl4nk]

PrintToConsole(client, "%s is %i", cvarNameString, cvarValue);

[msleeper]

Use GetConVarInt and a Format. What the code Hamster quoted is using a programming trick; since GetConVarInt(ff) returns 1 when it is on, and since 1 is interpreted as "true", the first console string is printed. When it is off, set to 0, and interpreted as "false", the second string is printed.

PrintToConsole(client, "mp_friendlyfire is %d.", GetConVarInt(ff))

Why make it more complex than it has to be?

Works great, thanks Kigen

How could I use this to return a value with a '.' in it? I tried to get the value of a plugin version:

         if (StrEqual(text[startidx], "cvars"))
        {
        new Handle:ff = FindConVar("mp_friendlyfire");
        new Handle:cda = FindConVar("cd_announcer_version");
        if (GetConVarInt(ff), (cda))
        {
            PrintToChat(client, "FF is %d", GetConVarInt(ff));
            PrintToChat(client, "CD Announcer Version %d", GetConVarInt(cda));
        }

But it only returns the first number of the plugin version i.e. 2 instead of 2.1. What am I missing here?
