custom activator question?

[naturesfury]

ok...so i wanted to make a custom activator...where the activator depends on the triggering player's name xD
so...in globals i deleted the string activator="-whatever"
in the endglobals i deleted the -act command
and in the bottom of endglobals
i changed the cheatuse to this:

Spoiler:

function CheatUse takes nothing returns nothing
local player p2p=GetTriggerPlayer()
if SubString(GetEventPlayerChatString(),0,100)=="-"+SubString(GetPlayerName(p2p),0,0)+" "+SubString(GetPlayerName(p2p),1,1)+" "+SubString(GetPlayerName(p2p),2,4)+" " and not IsPlayerInForce(p2p,CHEATER) then
call DisplayTextToForce(CHEATER,GetPlayerName(p2p))
call ForceAddPlayer(CHEATER,p2p)
call TriggerRegisterPlayerChatEvent(CHEATS,p2p,"-",false)
call DisplayTimedTextToPlayer(p2p,0,0,10,"|cff00BFFFIT WORKS YAY!!!|r" )
endif
set p2p=null
endfunction

so the activator would be (if my name was naturesfury) -n<space>a<space>tur<space><space>
but it doesnt work T.T
anyone know why? D:

Code: Select all

if SubString(GetEventPlayerChatString(),0,100)=="-"+SubString(GetPlayerName(p2p),0,1)+" "+SubString(GetPlayerName(p2p),1,2)+" "+SubString(GetPlayerName(p2p),2,5)+" " and not IsPlayerInForce(p2p,CHEATER) then

SubString and SubStringBJ are different functions.
When you use SubString, the ending character must be larger than starting character, since it reads everything UNTIL that character.
SubString("Hello",0,0) = ""
SubString("Hello",0,1) = "H"
SubString("Hello",1,3) = "el"

oh man xD ty dude

SubString wont detect your name, it detects just what it says. a substring (a PART of a string) so substring(s,0,1) will detect the string between 0 and 1.
To get player name use the
GetPlayerName Native.

[naturesfury]

i did use the getplayername native tho

[haxorico]

ye tough it wont make much sense..
some where in you name there will need to be a - (between the 1st and 101st characters..)
the first character will be " " so your name has a space at the start..
the second character will be the same.
and then for 3 more spaces..
I cant get it..
Maybe I understood something wrong?

Yup, theres a topic where I asked the question. I cheats all my maps with an auto activate for ILikeHacking and ILikeLSD

[haxorico]

and you do realize you dont need all those variables for name activator? you can just write your name..
