error C2679: binary '+=' : no operator defined which takes a right-hand operand of type 'unsigned char [32]'

Trying to do:

Code: Show/Hide s += player->player->Name;

And i get the error above.

What i'm trying to do is change the ?login on CatID's biller so that it says:
Login successful. Welcome back <username>. So in my case, Welcome back Contempt+.

1st glance,
player->name instead of
player->player->name?


or perhaps you cant strcat strings with +...
your compiler wouldnt allow it

like A + E != AE

I'm using MSVC 6.0.. And player->Name doesn't exist.

You can't use += with a char array...
Nothing to do with the compiler, but more with the language itself.
It works in MervBot when you use the String class, but it never works with char[]
You need to use strcat(char *, char *)
google some for help on it. But basically, one of the arguments is const, which is the string you want appended, and the other one is the string to which you want to append stuff
strcat(s, player->player->Name);
or something like that

So pretty much, just make the whole string strcat?

EDIT: There's no other way to do it?

Hmm, I'm a newbie with coding. Anyone have a link or a reference I can look at so I can implement it?

Well, the biller uses strings all throughout the src, so string.h is in the header.

Only problem is, my dumb ass can't figure it out haha.
