Chat with staff's tag

Shisui · February 24, 2015

Hello, I want to make the tag for GM's when they talk in chat.

I followed this tutorial

My input_main.cpp

		if(global_chat)
		{
			char buf[256];
			char chatbuf_global[CHAT_MAX_LEN + 1];
			const BYTE char_empire = ch->GetEmpire();
			if(char_empire == 1)
			{
				strlcpy(buf, LC_TEXT("Shinsoo"), sizeof(buf));
				std::string kingdom_red = "|cFFff0000|H|h[";
				kingdom_red += buf;
				kingdom_red += "]|cFFA7FFD4|H|h";
				sprintf(chatbuf_global, "%s %s", kingdom_red.c_str(), chatbuf);
			} 
			else if (char_empire == 2)
			{
				strlcpy(buf, LC_TEXT("Chunjo"), sizeof(buf));
				std::string kingdom_yel = "|cFFFFFF00|H|h[";
				kingdom_yel += buf;
				kingdom_yel += "]|cFFA7FFD4|H|h";
				sprintf(chatbuf_global, "%s %s", kingdom_yel.c_str(), chatbuf);
			} 
			else if (char_empire == 3) 
			{
				strlcpy(buf, LC_TEXT("Jinno"), sizeof(buf));
				std::string kingdom_blue = "|cFF0080FF|H|h[";
				kingdom_blue += buf;
				kingdom_blue += "]|cFFA7FFD4|H|h";
				sprintf(chatbuf_global, "%s %s", kingdom_blue.c_str(), chatbuf);
			}
			else if (ch->GetGMLevel() != GM_PLAYER)
			{
				strlcpy(buf, LC_TEXT("Staff"), sizeof(buf));
				std::string staff_color = "|cFFFFC700|H|h[";
				staff_color += buf;
				staff_color += "]|cFFA7FFD4|H|h";
				sprintf(chatbuf_global, "%s %s", staff_color.c_str(), chatbuf);
			}

locale_string.txt

"Staff";
"Staff";

When I speak shows the kingdom tag.

What am I missing?

I have the same, I still don't know why.

try :

else if (ch->GetGMLevel() == GM_IMPLEMENTOR)

safademirel · February 24, 2015

if (char_empire == 1 && ch->GetGMLevel() ==GM_PLAYER)

Try like this and change char_empire 2 and 3 too

Try this ...

if(global_chat)
{
    char buf[256];
    char chatbuf_global[CHAT_MAX_LEN + 1];
    const BYTE char_empire = ch->GetEmpire();
    if (ch->GetGMLevel() != GM_PLAYER)
    {
        strlcpy(buf, LC_TEXT("Staff"), sizeof(buf));
        std::string staff_color = "|cFFFFC700|H|h[";
        staff_color += buf;
        staff_color += "]|cFFA7FFD4|H|h";
        sprintf(chatbuf_global, "%s %s", staff_color.c_str(), chatbuf);
    }
	else if (char_empire == 1)
    {
        strlcpy(buf, LC_TEXT("Shinsoo"), sizeof(buf));
        std::string kingdom_red = "|cFFff0000|H|h[";
        kingdom_red += buf;
        kingdom_red += "]|cFFA7FFD4|H|h";
        sprintf(chatbuf_global, "%s %s", kingdom_red.c_str(), chatbuf);
    }
    else if (char_empire == 2)
    {
        strlcpy(buf, LC_TEXT("Chunjo"), sizeof(buf));
        std::string kingdom_yel = "|cFFFFFF00|H|h[";
        kingdom_yel += buf;
        kingdom_yel += "]|cFFA7FFD4|H|h";
        sprintf(chatbuf_global, "%s %s", kingdom_yel.c_str(), chatbuf);
    }
    else if (char_empire == 3)
    {
        strlcpy(buf, LC_TEXT("Jinno"), sizeof(buf));
        std::string kingdom_blue = "|cFF0080FF|H|h[";
        kingdom_blue += buf;
        kingdom_blue += "]|cFFA7FFD4|H|h";
        sprintf(chatbuf_global, "%s %s", kingdom_blue.c_str(), chatbuf);
    }
}

You first have to check of Player is GM or not. Because a GM is also in an Empire. So the Empire Check will be first True and they will never reach the GM Check.

Greatz

You're right Benhero !

And if I want to make more than one tag for each GM level?

just wondering you guys ever heard something from switch?

if (ch->GetGMLevel() == GM_IMPLEMENTOR)
    else if (ch->GetGMLevel() == GM_HIGH_WIZARD)
    else if (ch->GetGMLevel() == GM_LOW_WIZARD)
    else if (ch->GetGMLevel() == GM_GOD)
switch(ch->GetGMLevel() ) {
case GM_IMPLEMENTOR:
......
}

That's what I have.

I want to know more about that switch function.

@lolor2

Actually I don't know C++ as much as you do, but let's try again with your help.

switch(ch->GetGMLevel())
{
    case GM_IMPLEMENTOR:
    {
        strlcpy(buf, LC_TEXT("Implementor"), sizeof(buf));
        break;
    }
    case GM_HIGH_WIZARD:
    {
        strlcpy(buf, LC_TEXT("High_Wizard"), sizeof(buf));
        break;
    }
    case GM_LOW_WIZARD:
    {
        strlcpy(buf, LC_TEXT("Low_Wizard"), sizeof(buf));
        break;
    }
    case GM_GOD:
    {
        strlcpy(buf, LC_TEXT("God"), sizeof(buf));
        break;
    }
 
    std::string staff_color = "|cFFFF5C5C|H|h[";
    staff_color += buf;
    staff_color += "]|cFFA7FFD4|H|h";
    sprintf(chatbuf_global, "%s %s", staff_color.c_str(), chatbuf);
}

Could it work? Atleast I hope so.

// @galet

srsly wtf man, I don't have to be C++ master to know that your code won't work.

Galet · February 24, 2015

if (ch->GetGMLevel() == GM_IMPLEMENTOR) // check if GM is Implementor

    else if (ch->GetGMLevel() == GM_HIGH_WIZARD) // if not, check if GM is HW
    else if (ch->GetGMLevel() == GM_LOW_WIZARD) // if not, check if GM is LW
    else if (ch->GetGMLevel() == GM_GOD) // if not, check if GM is God

switch(ch->GetGMLevel() ) { // Put the switch of GetGMLevel()

case GM_IMPLEMENTOR: // if GetGMLevel() is marked as Implementor (first check) then :
        strlcpy(buf, LC_TEXT("Implementor"), sizeof(buf));
        std::string staff_color = "|cFFFFC700|H|h[";
        staff_color += buf;
        staff_color += "]|cFFA7FFD4|H|h";
        sprintf(chatbuf_global, "%s %s", staff_color.c_str(), chatbuf);

case GM_HIGH_WIZARD: // if GetGMLevel() is marked as HW (first check) then :
        strlcpy(buf, LC_TEXT("High"), sizeof(buf));
        std::string staff_color = "|cFFFFC700|H|h[";
        staff_color += buf;
        staff_color += "]|cFFA7FFD4|H|h";
        sprintf(chatbuf_global, "%s %s", staff_color.c_str(), chatbuf);
}
