colorThe color of the message (0xRRGGBBAA Hex format).
const format[]The text that will be displayed (max 144 characters).
OPEN_MP_TAGS:...Indefinite number of arguments of any tag.

Returns​

true - The function was executed successfully. Success is reported when the string is over 144 characters, but the message won't be sent.

false - The function failed to execute. The player is not connected.

Examples​

#define COLOR_RED 0xFF0000FF

public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
    SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_RED, "This text is red");
    SendClientMessage(playerid, 0x00FF00FF, "This text is green.");
    SendClientMessage(playerid, -1, "This text is white.");
    return 1;
}

public OnPlayerDeath(playerid, killerid, WEAPON:reason)
{
    if (killerid != INVALID_PLAYER_ID)
    {
        new name[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
        GetPlayerName(killerid, name, sizeof(name));

        SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_RED, "%s killed you.", name);
    }
    return 1;
}

Notes​

wskazówka
  • You can use color embedding for multiple colors in the message.
  • Using '-1' as the color will make the text white (for the simple reason that -1, when represented in hexadecimal notation, is 0xFFFFFFFF).
warning
  • If a message is longer than 144 characters, it will not be sent. Truncation can be used to prevent this. Displaying a message on multiple lines will also solve this issue.
  • Avoid using the percent sign (or format specifiers) in the actual message text without properly escaping it (like %%). It will result in crashes otherwise.
