Get a part of name but it don't output it all..

[King12]

Hello,

I've used this function getPlayerFromPartialName :

  
function getPlayerFromPartialName(name) 
    local name = name and name:gsub("#%x%x%x%x%x%x", ""):lower() or nil 
    if name then 
        for _, player in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
            local name_ = getPlayerName(player):gsub("#%x%x%x%x%x%x", ""):lower() 
            if name_:find(name, 1, true) then 
                return player 
            end 
        end 
    end 
end 
  

it worked fine with my AddCommandHandler event, but when it outputs the name, you will see the name you wrote.

for example, my name is King12 if I write /setxp Ki 1000 it will output Ki only not my full name..

My codes :

  
addCommandHandler ( "setlevel", 
    function( thePlayer, _, playerName, Level ) 
        local Level = tonumber ( Level ) or 0 
        local ThePlayer = getPlayerFromPartialName(playerName) 
        if isObjectInACLGroup("user."..getAccountName(getPlayerAccount(thePlayer)), aclGetGroup("Admin")) then       
            if ( ThePlayer ) then 
                setElementData( ThePlayer,"Level",Level ) 
                outputChatBox ( "Succesfully set " ..playerName.. "#00C800's Level to "..Level.." !", getRootElement(), 0, 200, 0, true , source ) 
                triggerClientEvent(ThePlayer, 'LevelSound', ThePlayer ) 
            else 
                outputChatBox ( "Couldn't find '" ..playerName1.. "#00C800'", getRootElement(), 200, 0, 0, true , source )       
            end 
        end  
    end 
)

try this :

addCommandHandler ( "setlevel", 
    function( thePlayer, _, playerName, Level ) 
        local Level = tonumber ( Level ) or 0 
        local ThePlayer = getPlayerFromPartialName(playerName)

                outputChatBox ( "Succesfully set " ..getPlayerName ( ThePlayer ).. "#00C800's Level to "..Level.." !", thePlayer, 0, 200, 0, true  ) 
                triggerClientEvent(ThePlayer, 'LevelSound', ThePlayer ) 
            else 
                outputChatBox ( "Couldn't find '" ..playerName.. "#00C800'", thePlayer, 200, 0, 0, true  )

Wait? getPlayerName with a text which is not a string? First arguement should be the player element shouldn't it be?

[Anubhav]

it's not needed tostring .

And IS IT A PLAYER ELEMENT?

[#DRAGON!FIRE]

what u mean ! ?

[Anubhav]

what u mean ! ?

No need to argue.

Please don't reply, you should understand your mistake.

If you use getPlayerName with "ki" it will not work. getPlayerName needs a element which is a player not player's name. Check out wiki. He defined ThePlayer with the function which returns the player name so you can use getPlayerName on it. Your arguement was wrong. You should've used ThePlayer.
