Small Bit of Help Needed Please!

Okay, so I was helping a Soldat friend write a script. He admins several servers for the !EliteCTF community and I admin a couple. This script is supposed to use a '/tempmute' command that is only on !Elite servers (as far as I know). You have the server scripts in "Soldat Server\scripts\". The script that contains the /tempmute is in "Soldat Server\scripts\XtraCommands\XtraCommands.pas". This script we wrote needs to use /tempmute depending on whether or not a player uses certain words when chatting in-game using "OnPlayerSpeak". However, if I use "Command('/tempmute time ID');" it simply does not do anything. I tried putting our script file in "scripts\XtraCommands" but everytime a player says something it simply says "XtraCommands -> OnPlayerSpeak: Out Of Range" (or something to that effect). How can I fix this?

Post the whole source of your script please.

I am assuming time and ID are variables with the numbers you need.

At the moment, the command is not recognosing the variables, as the quotes around them tell the compiler to treat it as a string. If you want it to use the variables, you need to split your string up, like so:

Code: (pascal) [Select]

Command('/tempmute ' +inttostr(time) +' ' +inttostr(ID));
The + when used with strings allows you to join them together, and inttostr() treats the intigers as strings, so they can be used with the +. Also, if you are wondering what the +' ' is for, it puts a space between the time and ID, otherwise the command /tempmute 12 2 would come out as /tempmute 122, which wouldn't work.

Command() only works for default commands, but you can trigger OnCommand event in other script which will work just as good:

Code: [Select]

CrossFunc([255,'/tempmute ' +inttostr(time) +' ' +inttostr(ID)],'XtraCommands.OnCommand');
