Getting a players name?

[hailstorm]

hello

how would i go about gettin a players name for example
how would i target a player, and then tell whether he says Hello in the journal? but only that player
like UO.InJournal('PLAYERNAME: hello')
?
thanks

exactly as you said
if uo.injournal(uo.getname("lasttarget")+": hello") then

the only problem is comparation case sensitive (MURDER not equal MurDer)

cMsg - message, you wanna check.
mAuthor - nick or ID of the player, this message would be from...

Code: Select all

sub CheckMsg(cMsg, mAuthor)
   if IsNumber(mAuthor) then
      mAuthor = UO.Int2Hex(VAL(STR(mAuthor)))
   endif
   var ij
   ij = UO.InJournal(cMsg)
   if ij Then
      if ((UO.JournalSerial(ij-1) == mAuthor) or (UO.GetName(UO.JournalSerial(ij-1)) == mAuthor)) then
         return ij
      else
          if (mAuthor == 'System') and (UO.JournalSerial(ij-1) == '0x01010101') then
             return ij
          else
              return 0
          endif
      endif
   else
       return 0
   endif
end sub

'laststatus' is not equal to 'LastStatus'

That's the answer

standart procedure not get player names on some shards
also make sure Track World is enabled
