Command not with /

Hey,
I want to do command with a ! because i think this is more cool as /.
Now How to see if player has do the good command
The command is like that
!ban {player}.
I know use PlayerChatevent.
and i know how to get the message but how to know if player has do the correct usage?
thanks!
And sorry i'm french

 

You could get the message from PlayerChatEvent, and use $args = explode(" ", $message); Be careful with $args[0], because $args[0] would be the actual command, not the first argument. To check if the first symbol is the one you want it to be, use: if($message[0] === "!") { }
I hope that helps.

 

Okay,

$message[0] you mean $args[0]?
because i have see the function explode
And they just coold be $args[0]
But $args[0] can't contain only ! because you said explode " "
So $args[0] contain "!ban" and $args[1] contain the name.
I think you mean that if i'm false Tell me please

 

PHP:

/** @var PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent $event */
$message = $event->getMessage();
if($message[0] === "!"){
    $expl = explode(" ", $message);
    $command = substr($expl[0], 1);
    $expl[0] = "/".$command;
    $event->setMessage(implode(" ", $expl));
}


 

PHP:

public function specialCommand (PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent $event) {
    $message = $event->getMessage();
    if($message[0] == "!") {
        $msgParts = explode(" ", $message); //separate the message by the spaces
        $command = substr($msgParts[0], 1); //extract command
        $msgParts[0] = "/".$command; //change the ! into a /
        $event->setMessage(implode(" ", $msgParts)); //set message to be a proper command for processing
    }
}


 

Without using the hacky string as an array and risk throwing errors method:

PHP:

public function onPlayerCommandPreprocess(pocketmine\event\player\PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent $event) {
    $message = $event->getMessage();
    if(substr($message, 0, 1) === "!") {
        $message = trim($message, "!");
        $event->setMessage("/" . $message);
    }
}


 

there is a problem if player has changed default command it get original args if

if I am right

 

English?

The command hasn't been processed yet, hence the event name being 'player command preprocess event'.

 

That's sort of hypocritical because you are saying for everyone to be like each other and use the default /

 

Yep, it's the same with custom enchants, one server has them and now everyone wants that, even tough it's so useless....
