    {
        new nodeid = strval(cmdtext[21]);

        if (nodeid < 0 || nodeid > 63)
            return SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFF0000FF, "Invalid node ID. Must be between 0 and 63.");

        new count = NPC_GetNodePointCount(nodeid);

        SendClientMessage(playerid, 0x00FF00FF, "Node %d has %d points", nodeid, count);
