syntax for wildcard playerid?

[squshy7]

Hate to start a thread for such a simple question, but Google isn't giving me any results. Is there a wildcard statement for playerids? I.e, I want

if (_playerID == "12345678")

to be

if (_playerID == "wildcard goes here")

Is it just a simple "%"?

What are you trying to achieve ? There are built in inString functions that could be used..

We are toying with a multiple custom load out script for various donators (look through my posts I just posted in the thread), and we need a reliable way to call a load out for normal players. It's looking like we might just Use else if statements, though I WOULD like to know about playerid wildcards and if it's possible. Would you care to elaborate a little?

Why not make an array with all donator ID's serverside.

 OurDonators = [123456789,123456789,123456789,123456789];

Then send to clients via publicVariable then setup a AddPublicVariableEventHandler on clients then check for current connecting playersUID in OurDOnators.

if (_playerUID in OurDonators) then {
    add donator load out.
} else {
    add standard player loadout.
};

Have a good read through this: http://dayzepoch.com/forum/index.php?/topic/2638-donator-gear-with-database/

 

I think it has what you need :)
