GetPiece help

[Spasman]

I'm making an invite system, where if the player types "/invite <playerID>" he invites that player ID to his team. GetPiece is not being too cooperative in this, here's the code, it's quite simple:

Code: [Select]

if Text = '/invite' then begin
     if GetPlayerStat(ID,'team') = 4 then begin
         SayToPlayer(ID,'Invite sent to '+IDToName(GetPiece(Text, ' ', 1)));
         SayToPlayer(GetPiece(Text, ' ', 1),'You have been anonymously invited to delta team.');
         SayToPlayer(GetPiece(Text, ' ', 1),'Type /canijoin to join.');
     end;
end;

The it has a "Type mismatch" error with the GetPiece(Text, ' ', 1) at most...
Anything you see wrong there? I'm stumped...

GetPiece returns a string, the first parameter of SayToPlayer is a byte. You need to do
strtoint(GetPiece(Text, ' ', 1))

Oh awesome, I'm not too good with programming parameter types.

Thanks.

You're too good? xD

Also, when you do

Code: [Select]

if Text = '/invite' then begin
I think it only evaluates to true if the complete text is just '/invite'. So i would do this way:

Code: [Select]

if GetPiece(Text, ' ', 0) = '/invite' then begin

also, i heard that it's better to use GetPlayerStat(ID,'Name') instead of IDToName(ID)....
