Anybody that knows E2 & the findPlayerByName() function, I need your help!

[Fatman55]

I am making a TF2 style capture point, but it uses a chat command of !blueteam and !redteam to set the teams which are up to a maximum of 4 each, but it only sets the first team member of the command, HELP!

@name Cap point
@model models/props_gameplay/cap_point_base.mdl
@inputs Target:entity Target1 Target2
@persist Red:entity Reda:entity Redb:entity Redc:entity Blue:entity Bluea:entity Blueb:entity Bluec:entity Tick Iscaptured Redcap Bluecap
#Team fortress 2 Capture point: By Fatman55




if(first() == 1)
{
    runOnTick(1)
    runOnChat(1)
    Iscaptured = 0
    Tick = 0
    entity():setSkin(0)
    entity():soundPlay(0, 0, "common/null.wav")
}

if( chatClk(owner()) )
    {
    
    
    ChatArray = owner():lastSaid():explode(" ")
    
    if(ChatArray:string(1) == "!blueteam")
    {
    Blue = findPlayerByName(ChatArray:string(2))
    Bluea = findPlayerByName(ChatArray:string(3))
    Blueb = findPlayerByName(ChatArray:string(4))
    Bluec = findPlayerByName(ChatArray:string(5))
    hint("Blue team: " + Blue:name() + ", "
     + Bluea:name() + ", " + Blueb:name() + ", "
     + Bluec:name()                         , 10)
    }
    
        if( ChatArray:string(1) == "!redteam")
    {
    Red = findPlayerByName(ChatArray:string(2))
    Red2 = findPlayerByName(ChatArray:string(3))
    Red3 = findPlayerByName(ChatArray:string(4))
    Red4 = findPlayerByName(ChatArray:string(5))
    }
    
    
    }



if(Target2 == 1){Target1 = 0}
if(tickClk() & Target1 == 1){Tick += 1}
elseif(Target1 == 0 & Iscaptured == 0){Tick = 0}
if(Tick == 250)
{
    if
    (
    Target:name() == Blue:name() & Bluecap == 0|
    Target:name() == Bluea:name() & Bluecap == 0|
    Target:name() == Blueb:name() & Bluecap == 0|
    Target:name() == Bluec:name() & Bluecap == 0
    )
    {
        entity():soundPlay(0, 0, "music/portal_still_alive.mp3")
        entity():setSkin(2)
        print("Point captured by blue!")
        Redcap = 0
        Bluecap = 1
    }
    if
    (
    Target:name() == Red:name() & Redcap == 0|
    Target:name() == Red2:name() & Redcap == 0|
    Target:name() == Red3:name() & Redcap == 0|
    Target:name() == Red4:name() & Redcap == 0
    )
    
    {
        entity():soundPlay(0, 0, "music/portal_4000_degrees_kelvin.mp3")
        entity():setSkin(1)
        print("Point captured by red!")
        Redcap = 1
        Bluecap = 0
    }
}

You should post this on the wiremod forums.

I do not have a wiremod forum account.

You can only run the find function once every 100ms (1/10th second). Thus, the code above will not work.

Thank you, so I just need to add a 100ms delay between them?

just do

@persist Target:entity
if (findCanQuery()) {Target = findPlayerByName("whatever")}
