Lua getPlayerName?

[ond]

Hi, this doesn't work:

doPlayerSay(getPlayerName(cid), "Aaaah...", TEXTCOLOR_ORANGE)
doPlayerAddMana(cid, math.random(100, 210))

Please help me!

Error: LuaDoPlayerSay<>. Player not found

I believe you should put "cid" instead of "getPlayerName(cid)". I think it wants the player object there and not the players name. Thats why it cant find the player.

My two thoughts.

Can you "re-script" it for me? I suck at this kind of stuff:S

bump come on anyone, I need this!

 

[MG Zeke]

doPlayerSay(cid, "Aaaah...", TEXTCOLOR_ORANGE)
doPlayerAddMana(cid, math.random(100, 210))

I think.. Try it and let me know

I appriciate your help, but it didn't work. I only get debug ò_ó

I pulled this right out of my potion script so I know it works,

	doCreatureSay(itemEx.uid, "Aaaah...", TALKTYPE_ORANGE_1)

Hope it helps

Just tested some stuff out,

If you want the player to say it.. (shows up in the chat window), you can use this

		doCreatureSay(cid, "Aaaah...", 1)

Or

		doPlayerSay(cid, "Aaaah...", 1)

It does not like the talktypeorange when a player is trying to say it.

If you want it to show up in the orange color, I don't think you use doPlayerSay or doCreatureSay with a person. The item does in fact work though.

Hope this helped.
