Basic Command
Description
This code adds a red chat message to the chat box when any player types /text
Code
All examples below do the same thing, in terms of adding the chat message when the command is typed.
Two examples are shown for each supported scripting language, 1 with a global function, 1 with a lambda function. Lambda functions are favoured.
All examples below are server-side code, not client-side code.
JavaScript - Global Function
function textCommand(command, args, client) {
message('This text is displayed in the chatbox when /text is typed ingame.', COLOUR_RED);
};
addCommandHandler('text', textCommand);
JavaScript - Lambda Function
addCommandHandler('text', function(command, args, client) {
message('This text is displayed in the chatbox when /text is typed ingame.', COLOUR_RED);
});
Squirrel - Global Function
function textCommand(command, args, client) {
message('This text is displayed in the chatbox when /text is typed ingame.', COLOUR_RED);
};
addCommandHandler('text', textCommand);
Squirrel - Lambda Function
addCommandHandler('text', function(command, args, client) {
message('This text is displayed in the chatbox when /text is typed ingame.', COLOUR_RED);
});
Lua - Global Function
function textCommand(command, args, client)
message('This text is displayed in the chatbox when /text is typed ingame.', COLOUR_RED)
end
addCommandHandler('text', textCommand)
Lua - Lambda Function
addCommandHandler('text', function(command, args, client)
message('This text is displayed in the chatbox when /text is typed ingame.', COLOUR_RED)
end)
Notes
The code uses addCommandHandler, which is a shared function, shared means that the functionality is available both server-side and client-side.
The code uses COLOUR_RED which is a server define, see Server Colour Defines.
