Hello,

I'm building a bot but the function doesn't really matter. Anyways, i'm trying to put a _listnode in it but it gives erros all the time. Here's the code and the error:

Code: Show/Hide

int countnum=0;
            _listnode *parse1 = playerlist->head;

            {
               Player *p = parse1->item;

               if (p->ship != SHIP_Spectator)
               {
                  pilots[countnum].PlayerCall=String(p->name);
                  countnum++;
               }

               parse1 = parse1->next;
            }

Maybe lose the '*'.

pilots[countnum].PlayerCall=String(p->name);

You can't assign a String to PlayerCall, which is interesting as I have seen people post code like:

Code: Show/Hide

String s = "*setfreq ";
s += p->ship;

Where assignment is done.

Actually, you need to specify the struct type. _listnodes can store any kind of data whatever, so (to put it simply), you must tell the compiler what type of stuff you're putting in it right now. Example "_listnode <Player> *parsel;" which is what you need to use here.

There's an error there, but what Smong said isn't the problem. What datatype is PlayerCall?

int countnum=0;
_listnode <Player> *parse1 = playerlist->head;

while(parse1 != NULL)
{
Player *p = parse1->item;

if (p->ship != SHIP_Spectator)
{
//pilots[countnum].PlayerCall=String(p->name);

//if PlayerCall is of the type String then you can just do PlayerCall= p->name and it work. Otherwise, if its a char[20] then you use strncpy or strcpy to copy in the player's name. Hopefully there is some control over how many piolets are in the game or you might have a buffer overrun on that pilots array. Dont overindex it!
countnum++;
}

parse1 = parse1->next;
}

When you're finished w/ your plugin, don't compile it w/ DEBUG mode in MSVC
