When player leaves, display name?

[IronForge]

Hi, can someone linky/provide me with a method to create a system where when a player leaves, '<playername> has left the game, he touches little boys' would display? Can't seem to find a way to display player name as a chat string.

Thanks!!

Game - Display to (All players) for 10.00 seconds the text: ((Name of (Triggering player)) + has left the game to go touch little boys and experiment on his baby sister.)

Don't get what your color codes will do or how to do it tho.

It is relativey simple:

You need to save make a string array the size of you max players. Find the colour hexadecimal code for the respective player and put the first half of it to that index of the array.

e.g.
PlayerColours[1] = |c00FF0000
PlayerColours[2] = |c000000FF
e.t.c...

SO once you have this what you can do in your actions when you are displaying the text you would put something like...

• Actions
  • Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((PlayerColour[PlayerNumberOf(Triggering Player)] + (Name of (Triggering player))) + |r has left this game!)

So that the text will refer to the colour hexadecimal that corresponds to the player number of triggering player in the PlayerColour[] array.

Ah ok so for a simple one without colors its allright?
Erm toofless could you please give me a slightly more detailed guide on how to do that, or a sample where I can just copy/paste the trigger? Have no idea what you mean lol sorry I tried.

BUMP
Has been weeks, any help?

 

[onix_noob]

where the text is u must select an arithmetic or something like that (the one that allow u to combine strings) then first string paste the hexa code (|c000000FF) and in the second place player name of leaving player. it shouldn't be hard but still u have to experiment for like 10 minutes to make it fir best for your map

OK, but I don't really understand how to use arrays and such? Can you tell me how the variable will look like? Integer? How many arrays? 1?
And how should the trigger look like? For players 2,3,4,5,6,11

Have 12 string arrays containing the color code without the |r, and when it triggers, the array number in the action should be something like "Player Number of Triggering Player."

So then it displays the color of the player! Neat. But you also have to remember to have |r after "Name of (Triggering Player)" if you're going to have a message like:

Player has left the game! which would be [String Array Here]PlayerName|r has left the game!

P.S. Stop double posting and getting neg repped.

Double-Posting

Me: This... blah blah blah.

then

Me: But then... blah blah.

So basically you shouldn't have another post belonging to you under another post belonging to you. Use the "Edit" button available next to your post.

It was a bump. Thread had gone inactive and I was workin on other stuff. Edited since you didn't like it.

 

[Aesthetics]

So did you get it or not?

 

[IronForge]

No, not really sorry... what are the color codes anyway and how do I find them? And I only need for 6 players, do I still have array as 12?
Integer variable right?

 

[Aesthetics]

It's called Google.

And if you only need 6 players, then the array would be 6.

Not integer variable, a string-array of 6.
