String to PlayerMp

[SteveDee]

Hi,

how can i get the player object from string parameter in command?

Using js.

Server-Side:

When you want to find a certain player, that didn't call the command, you could use that:
 

/**
 * @author Paccoderpster
 * @description With that function you can find a certain player
 * @param {str} name The name of the player
 * @returns {player}, if the player is found or null, if this player isn't logged in
 */
global.findPlayer = function findPlayer(name) {
	let players = mp.players.toArray();
	for(let p in players) {
		if(players[p].name == name) {
			return players[p];
		}
	}
	return null;
}

Or, if you want the player object from the player that called the command, you don't have to do anything.

mp.events.addCommand(`givemoney`, (player, string) => {
	//Do Something with player	
});

 

Client Side:

let player = mp.players.local;

I was searching for the first one.

I thought about doing it with an foreach loop but i hoped there would be a better possibility.

But thank you

The forEach in js is a pain in the ass. You cannot break (return) them like in php, the return only exit the current run (like continue would).
