Solved SendReply to player

Hi. I am trying to do something like this on C#:

Code:

SendReply(Reynostrum, "Something");

This should send a message to Reynostrum.

Is this possible?

Thank you.

 

Thanks again Wulf.

I get this: "error CS0103: The name `arg' does not exist in the current context".

 

Thanks Wulf.
I did this and it's working like a charm:

Code:

foreach (BasePlayer player in BasePlayer.activePlayerList)
  {
  if (player.displayName.ToString() == Defensor)
  {
  SendReply(player, "something");
  }
  }

Is there any way to make it "cleaner"?

 

you should make the name a variable in the method instead of writing a method that will only ever work on 1 name

Code:

void MethodName(string name)
        {
            foreach (var player in BasePlayer.activePlayerList)
            {
                if (player.displayName.ToLower() == name)
                    SendReply(player, "message");
            }
        }

then say your method runs from a chat command ex. /testchat name

Code:

[ChatCommand("testchat")]
        void cmdtest(BasePlayer player, string command, string[] args)
        {
            if (args.Length == 0)
                SendReply(player, "You need to enter a name");
            if (args.Length == 1)
            {
                MethodName(args[0].ToLower());
            }
          
        }

or a console command ex. testchat name

Code:

[ConsoleCommand("testchat")]
        void consoletest(ConsoleSystem.Arg arg)
        {
            if (arg.Args.Length == 0)
                SendReply(arg, "You need to enter a name");
            if (arg.Args.Length == 1)
            {
                MethodName(arg.Args[0].ToLower());
            }
          
        }

i used the '.ToLower()' to change it to lowercase to account for if it is typed like; Name, name, NAME, NaMe etc otherwise it would case-sensitive
also you dont need a .ToString() after displayname as it should already be a string
