gj! the code looks way better then the first one you posted in the request thread :)rnrnSome things wont work as the code looks now e.g:rnrn

public NameHelp(id)	rn{rn	if(get_pcvar_num(p_on))	rn		client_cmd(id,"messagemode name;")rn	set_hudmessage(0, 255, 255, 0.02, 0.10, 0, 6.0, 12.0)rn	show_hudmessage(id, "Type your name NOW!!!! ")rn	rn	return PLUGIN_HANDLEDrn}

rnrnThe only thing that will happen if p_on isnt positiv is that it will show the HUD message when ppl say /name. Like this it will do nothing:rnrn

public NameHelp(id)	rn{rn	if(get_pcvar_num(p_on))rn	{rn		client_cmd(id,"messagemode name;")rn		set_hudmessage(0, 255, 255, 0.02, 0.10, 0, 6.0, 12.0)rn		show_hudmessage(id, "Type your name NOW!!!! ")rn	}rn	return PLUGIN_HANDLEDrn}

rnrnBut its a simple thing.. You can leave out the branches if you only had this eg:rnrn

public NameHelp(id)	rn{rn	if(get_pcvar_num(p_on))rn		client_cmd(id,"messagemode name;")rn}

rnrnIts always best to leave out the branches if possible the function above could also look like this and still be working:rnrn

public NameHelp(id)	rn	if(get_pcvar_num(p_on))rn		client_cmd(id,"messagemode name;")

rnbut branches will make the code a bit more easy to read for others. I always wrap functions with { }.....rnrnAlso public dod_client_spawn(id) will happen even if name_menu is 0, so maybe you should make an overall on/off function.. Idk if that dod_client_spawn forward is still buggy, i would use hamsandwich see the tutorial forum for how to catch it with ham..

Thank you Dr. G, rnrnOkay I fixed the /name but I wanted to keep the text to make sure people notice they should be typing a name. I have not tested this version yet but I will soon after my server uploads this evening. I will also see if I understand the HAM stuff and do some testing as well before my next post.

rnrnOkay I can not reply to this thread anymore..... So I never got around to working with the ham stuff. I really just don't get everything yet. Anyways anyone know if this plug in can crash a server using the client crash / freeze bug?rnrnhttps://www.dodplugins.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1821
