Commands

Typed chat commands with automatic argument parsing.

Declare a command with a leading /name literal and typed arguments.

knight

player::command("/heal") {
    SetPlayerHealth(playerid, 100.0);
};

player::command("/give", int amount, string reason) {
    GivePlayerMoney(playerid, amount);
    SendClientMessage(playerid, "Received {amount}: {reason}");
};

player::command("/tp", float x, float y, float z) {
    SetPlayerPos(playerid, x, y, z);
};

How arguments are parsed

int — the next whitespace-separated token is parsed as an integer.
float — parsed as a decimal number.
string — the remainder of the line (or one token, per declaration).

Note

Unknown commands can be handled in player::chat or left to the engine's SERVER: Unknown command reply.
