Title: Licenseplates (after donating)
Post by: ihatetn931 on March 16, 2012, 19:22
If i was to donate could i use color codes in license plates?

Like the welcome messages.

I am seriously thinking about donating but i was curious if i could use color codes.

This is just an example. You can see how the license plate text is in red and blue (if any one ask, that is a script i made from scratch and lost the motivation to finish it so i just use the server for testing mods, that license plate is just showing the vehicleid and the vehiclename)

Ahh that kinda sucks, do you know if any one has suggested to have colored license plates before?

If not i may suggest it.

Maximum length of numberplate is 8, so even if you could use colors, the code would waste all of the allowed space.

The color codes from what i know wouldn't appear as part of the licnese plate so it wouldn't be considred the 8 letters, if you look in that pic i have posted. That has 2 color codes in it while still showing all the words that are set for it. I dunno how you set the color codes so i really couldn't say much.


YCMD:changeplate(playerid, params[], help)
{
new str[128];
new vehicleid = GetPlayerVehicleID(playerid);
if(PLogged[playerid] == 0) return
    SendClientMessage(playerid, ERROR_COLOR, NOT_LOGGED);
if(help) return
    SendClientMessage(playerid, ERROR_COLOR, "Changes The Plate of the car you're in you own");
if (isnull(params))
  {
  format(str, sizeof (str), "Usage: \"/%s [text]\"", Command_GetDisplayNamed("plate", playerid));
      SendClientMessage(playerid, COMMAND_PRINT, str);
    }
    else
    {
  format(str, sizeof (str), "Plate Set to %s with Color [ %s ]",params,ColouredText(params));
      SendClientMessage(playerid, COMMAND_PRINT, str);
    SetVehicleNumberPlate(vehicleid,ColouredText(params));
//    VehicleInfo[vehicleid][vLplate] = params;
    format(Query, sizeof(Query), "UPDATE vehicles SET LicensePlate = '%s' WHERE VehicleOwner = '%s' AND VehicleDescription = '%s'",
params,
    GetEscName(playerid),
    PlayerVehicles[GetVehicleModel(vehicleid)-400]);
mysql_query(Query);
printf("%s",Query);

}
    return 1;
}


That's how i got my command. If you say it would take up the whole license plate then i really can't argue with you since you know your shiznit.

To make this claim you would first have to understand my gamemode.

Yes, that's why i really can't say much. Your gamemode is pretty complex. But then simple at the same time.

I guess it's just about how you do color codes. Everyone does them diffrent

Then don't say that I "know shizniz". I know very well how numberplates work, but I chose to limit them to 9 cells to save space.

That was a compliment. It wasn't intended to be a sarcastic remark.
