I need a fix for my script [Solved]

[Spidy]

Hello there!

I lately started learning scripting, yet I'm still new, I have made my first script, and ofc, something is missed on it because it doesn't work, the script is /goto (mapname)

function Changemap (thePlayer, goto) 
        bool changeGamemodeMap ( resource newMap, [ resource gamemodeToChangeTo ] ) 
        outputChatBox(getPlayerName(source).." changed the map!") 
end      
addCommandHandler("ChangeGamemod", Changemap) 

As I said, I'm still new at scripting, I hope I won't get aggressive comments..

Thanks!

function Changemap (thePlayer, cmd, goTo) 
    exports.mapmanager:changeGamemodeMap (goTo) 
    outputChatBox(getPlayerName(thePlayer).." changed the map!") 
end     
addCommandHandler("goto", Changemap) 

Im not sure myself as i never worked with the mapmanager, but i belive this is right.

Ingame do /goto mapname

addCommandHandler('goto', 
    function(p,c,...) 
        local m = table.concat(arg,' ') 
        local e = exports.mapmanager 
        if #m > 0 then 
            for i,v in ipairs(e:getMaps()) do 
                local n = getResourceInfo(v,'name') 
                if n and n:lower():find(m:lower(),1,true) then 
                    e:changeGamemodeMap(v) 
                    return outputChatBox(getPlayerName(p)..' starts '..n,root,255,255,0) 
                end 
            end 
            return outputChatBox('Map not found',p,255,255,0) 
        else 
            outputChatBox('/goto [mapname]',p,255,0,0) 
        end 
    end 
)

Karthik's one works, but I have to type whole mapname to goto, it's like the /changemap cmd, I don't want it in this way, I want it like:

E.gs: /goto Pure Skills P, it'll goto Pure Skills Paradise

/goto DC ,if there are two maps with the name DC it'll has to say "Found (2) matches": 'DC 15', 'DC 16'.."

Got me?

Anyone? Please?

Use

string.find  

to get possible maps and find string that you write in cmd

local showmapsLimit = 5 
addCommandHandler('goto', 
    function(p,c,...) 
        local m = table.concat(arg,' ') 
        local e = exports.mapmanager 
        local t = {} 
        if #m > 0 then 
            for i,v in ipairs(e:getMaps()) do 
                local n = getResourceInfo(v,'name') 
                if n and n:lower():find(m:lower(),1,true) then 
                    table.insert(t,{v,n}) 
                end 
            end 
            if #t == 0 then 
                outputChatBox('No maps found',p,255,0,0) 
            elseif #t == 1 then 
                e:changeGamemodeMap(t[1][1]) 
                outputChatBox(getPlayerName(p)..' starts '..t[1][2],root,255,255,0) 
            else 
                outputChatBox('Found '.. #t ..' matches:',p) 
                for i,v in ipairs(t) do 
                    outputChatBox(v[2]) 
                    if i == showmapsLimit then 
                        outputChatBox('...',p) 
                        break 
                    end 
                end 
            end 
        else 
            outputChatBox('/goto [mapname]',p,255,0,0) 
        end 
    end

Still does not work..Whenever I type /goto a mapname it says "goto (mapname), once I write the whole name still nothing happen..

Debugscript 3: goto:8: "bad agrument #1 "ipairs' (table expected, got boolean)"..

Are you sure you've put the code serverside?

Debugscript 3: goto:8: "bad agrument #1 "ipairs' (table expected, got boolean)"..

Are you sure that mapmanager resource is running?

[Spidy]

No I wasn't.. Sorry..

Set it serverside and it works now, thank you for wasting your time helping me)

You can close this as well.
