Syntax
- getcharid(<type>{,"<character name>"});
Description
This function will return a unique ID number of the invoking character, or, if a character name is specified, of that character.
For most purposes other than printing it, a number is better to have than a name (people do horrifying things to their character names).
If the character is not in a party or not in a guild, the function will return 0 if guild or party number is requested. If a name is specified and the character is not found, 0 is returned.
If getcharid(0) returns a zero, the script got called not by a character and doesn't have an attached RID. Note that this will cause the map server to print "player not attached!" error messages, so it is preferred to use 'playerattached' to check for the character attached to the script.
Type Values
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | Character ID number. |
| 1 | Party ID number. |
| 2 | Guild ID number. |
| 3 | Account ID number. |
| 4 | Battleground ID number. |
Examples
if( getcharid(2) == 0 ) mes "Only members of a guild are allowed here!";
// This code will get charid from not attached player, if he is online (useful in dialogues) input .@charname$;
if (getcharid(.@charname$,0)>0) { do something } // if player online
