allow_rename

[caldas]

searching for the forum, i found this script but it seems that the allow_rename is missing.

can you tell what he does? do you have any?



playerinit()
{
self.izno = []; //initialize player-info array
self checkinitialname(); //fix initial "Unknown Soldier" names
self.izno["userinfoname"] = self get_userinfo("name"); //keep track of the name as per the user's userinfo
self thread monitor_namechange();
self allow_rename(false);
}

checkinitialname()
{
name = self get_userinfo("name");
self.izno["realname"] = name;
result = checkname(name); //checkname returns true if the name is not allowed or a duplicate
if(result)
{
//as i disallow duplicate names, this while() loop tries to find an open JumpersHeavenFan#NUMBER for the player to use
while(result)
{
self.izno["realname"] = "JumpersHeavenFan#" + randomintrange(100, 1000);
result = self checkname(self.izno["realname"]);
}
//now, to keep the userinfo the same to not excessively trigger a clientuserinfochanged event, store the user's name before renaming him
userinfoname = self get_userinfo("name");

//this will allow clientuserinfochanged to rename the player
self allow_rename(true);

//change the name in the userinfo, then call the clientuserinfochanged function to do the actual renaming
self set_userinfo("name", self.izno["realname"]);
self clientuserinfochanged();

//disallow any future user-started rename events
self allow_rename(false);

//restore the original userinfo
self set_userinfo("name", userinfoname);
}

}

monitor_namechange()
{
self endon("disconnect");
while(true)
{
name = self get_userinfo("name");

//if the name in userinfo is different than the one stored serverside, the user changed his /name
if(name != self.izno["userinfoname"])
{
//namechange event
//check if user is allowed to change his name and what his real name should be
self.izno["realname"] = self namechanged(name);

//next few lines to the same as the renaming in checkinitialname()
self set_userinfo("name", self.izno["realname"]);
self allow_rename(true);
self clientuserinfochanged();
self allow_rename(false);
self.izno["userinfoname"] = name;
self set_userinfo("name", name);
}
wait 0.05;
}
}

}

//you can add more names to this banned-names list.
