So you have to just swap around the parameters:

if(strfind(playerIP, searchIP) != -1)

Remember with strfind: the haystack comes before the needle.

Oh DERP. I see what I did wrong. Thanks!

Anyone happen to know how i can make a checkpoint pickup a trailer instead of the player.

So if the trailer enters the checkpoint it does what it's suppose to , instead of having to enter it with the truck

I want to make a command that creates a new file. The files will have numbers as titles. But, they should not overwrite eachother but just a new number Like: 1.ini, 2.ini 3.ini.
How can I create this using ini by y_less?

How do I create text that the other player gets a message when a player types a command?
E.G: /pay, the sender recieves "You have sent money to %s" by SendClientMessage, but how does the reciever recieve text that they have been given money?
Thanks

Use the same player ID variable you used in GivePlayerMoney.

I want to use va_format to ShowPlayerDialogEx but I don't know why i have error "error 029: invalid expression, assumed zero".

PHP Code:

ShowPlayerDialogEx(playerid, dialogid, style, caption[], format[], button1[], button2[], va_args<>)
{
    new out[128];
    va_format(out, sizeof(out), format, va_start<7>);
    ShowPlayerDialog(playerid, dialogid, style, caption[], out, button1[], button2[]);
}

Use a loop, that then checks if the file exists.

PHP Code:

for(new i = 0; i<MAX_FILES; i++)
{
    new string[10];
    format(string,sizeof(string), "/%i.ini", i);
    if(!fexist)
    {
        break;
        //code to create the file.
    }
}

I want to gain knowledge of MySQL as I would like to eventually use it for account storage. With there being no current R7 guides, should I just use and follow a R6 based guide and then when my knowledge is wider, move onto R7. Not going to be hosting a server or using a MySQL database fully anytime soon, so it's just down to if it's a good path to take; to learn MySQL.

Thanks.
