you see broken colors on your code?

what did you do actually?

you have to put your code in separate files, then add them to meta.xml

you wanted to add it like in HTML or something..

read about meta.xml and basics of scripting on the https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/

I will not tell you the same thing multiple times but GetPlayerName does NOT exist, there is getPlayerName...

Forget about SA-MP. ALL MTA's function names start with lower case letters.

Yea, I come from samp to so I'm used to the pawn functions. I've had a couple of issues because of this lower case allready
