What is going on? Is it connected to the fact that punkbuster or etadmin mod capturing the command before lua or smth?
p.s im talking about client command:

I believe the /name command doesn't get sent to the server at all. It should be processed on client side already, and you should only get userinfo changed or sometihng liek that (which you can intercept with lua).

i see, thx for reply ! Im trying to create some name limit mod which will not kick a player and instead of it after the limit it will restoring original name. Im using Hadro's code but the only problem is now how to set the nick and block from setting the nick because i can't run et_clientcommand its very complicated ;[
so far i got, but its not working:
Code: Select all
function et.trap_Maxname(clientNum, ret)
local msg = string.format("cpmsay \"^3ID: ^g" .. clientNum .. "^7 reached the name change limit. ^1Restoring original name !\n")
et.trap_SendConsoleCommand(et.EXEC_APPEND, msg)
et.trap_SendServerCommand(clientNum, string.format("print \"" .. ret .. "\n"))
local userinfo = et.trap_GetUserinfo( clientNum )
local infostring = et.Info_RemoveKey( userinfo, "name" )
local setstring = et.Info_SetValueForKey( infostring, "name", origin_name[clientNum] )
et.trap_SetUserinfo( clientNum, setstring )
end
edit:
debugged it and vars are ok but its not changing the nick ;/

At a glance, I'm not sure you need "et.Info_RemoveKey" at all. Further, I had a look back at Gotenks' rename function in Powermod (because I've used that before and I know it works).
Code: Select all
function RenameUser(PlayerID,Name)
local userinfo = et.trap_GetUserinfo( PlayerID )
local PlayerName = et.Q_CleanStr( et.Info_ValueForKey( userinfo, "name" ) )
userinfo = et.Info_SetValueForKey( userinfo, "name", Name )
et.trap_SetUserinfo( PlayerID, userinfo )
et.trap_SendConsoleCommand(et.EXEC_APPEND, "mute " .. "\"" .. PlayerName .. "\"" .. "\n" )
PlayerName = et.Q_CleanStr( et.Info_ValueForKey( userinfo, "name" ) )
et.trap_SendConsoleCommand(et.EXEC_APPEND, "unmute " .. "\"" .. PlayerName .. "\"" .. "\n" )
end
Your code more or less uses the same lines as his but your problem might be in updating the userinfo. You can see that Gotenks used a little mute/unmute handywork, which I think forces the new info on the client (I'm assuming this since it appears to mute with the old name and then unmute with the newname).
Other than that, I could only suggest spamming your code with debugging print lines, checking all of your variables (inc info) at each step in your code.
Best of luck, hope you get sorted.

hey, thx for the help but this code is not working either :<
as u can see setstring got modified name but it is not setting and userinfo is still the same ;/
btw SetUserinfo is putting the name at the end of userinfo, is it ok?

this alternative seems to work for me:
Code: Select all
function RenameUser(clientNum, newname)
local userinfo = et.trap_GetUserinfo(clientNum)
userinfo = et.Info_SetValueForKey(userinfo, "name", newname)
et.trap_SetUserinfo(clientNum, userinfo)
et.ClientUserinfoChanged(clientNum)
end
