Signature
native format(output[], len, const format[], any:...);
Description
Formats a string according to the AMX Mod X format rules (see documentation).
Notes
-
Example: format(dest, "Hello %s. You are %d years old", "Tom", 17).
If any of your input buffers overlap with the destination buffer,
format() falls back to a "copy-back" version as of 1.65. This is
slower, so you should using a source string that is the same as
the destination.
Parameters
- output — Destination string buffer.
- len — Maximum length of output string buffer.
- format — Formatting rules.
- ... — Variable number of format parameters.
Returns
Number of cells written.
