Calling Names

[durama]

Ok im just starting scripting but how would i do this

i want the script to find the users name in the middle of a sentence

for example

Hello * how are you?

*the user character name not there login

what would i have to do to accomplish this?

Text is handled via the source code. This isn't a scripting matter. But you'd just do something like

```
For x = 1 to MAX_PLAYERS
  If IsPlaying(x) Then
    If InStr(1, Text, GetPlayerName(x) Then
      'DO THINGS
      Exit Sub
    End If
  End If
Next
```

Never mind i figured it out!! im not sure you kneew what i meant tho here is my code

```
Case 0
call PlayerMsg(index,"hello " & GetPlayerName(index) & ".",BLUE)
Exit Sub
```

Oh, I see. I just didn't get your explanation. Yeah, that's much easier than I was thinking.
