Squirrel/Server/Functions/Blips/Owner

Latest revision as of 00:22, 29 September 2010

This Blip class member returns a pointer to the owner of this blip, or null if the blip is visible for everyone.

Player Blip.Owner

This example function will return the name of the blip owner (or "Unknown" if the blip is a global blip) when called.

 
// This is a custom function
function GetBlipOwnerName( blip )
{
     if ( blip.Owner ) return blip.Owner.Name;
     return "Unknown";
}

The function Player.Name was used in in this example. More info about it in the corresponding page.

Note that this function is a completely custom function, you'll have to call it using your own script.
