how do you know what to write to make a plugin do something? like is there a list of commands to write or do you have to figure it out yourself (guessing) lol

if you go through all the #includes all the functions are in there. The rest is just basic syntax.

for example in spawns.h we see the headers for the chat functions:

Code: Show/Hide void sendPrivate(Player *player, char *msg); void sendPrivate(Player *player, BYTE snd, char *msg); void sendTeam(char *msg); void sendTeam(BYTE snd, char *msg); void sendTeamPrivate(Uint16 team, char *msg); void sendTeamPrivate(Uint16 team, BYTE snd, char *msg); void sendPublic(char *msg); void sendPublic(BYTE snd, char *msg); void sendPublicMacro(char *msg); void sendPublicMacro(BYTE snd, char *msg); void sendChannel(char *msg);         // #;Message void sendRemotePrivate(char *msg);      // :Name:Messsage void sendRemotePrivate(char *name, char *msg);

so if we wanted to send a public message we could just call sendPublic with a char* and it would send it.

so like

char* helloMessage = "hello";
sendPublic(helloMessage);

or simply

sendPublic("hello");
