Thanks.

Like i was saying:
new playa=random(MAX_PLAYERS);
if(IsPlayerConnected(playa)) Kick(playa);
-This will kick RANDOM CONNECTED playa

It will, if player is connected.

If you want to be sure, that really somebody is kicked at this time, but you still want it to be randomly, you may try this:
pawn Код:
new playa=random(MAX_PLAYERS);
if(IsPlayerConnected(playa)==0)
{
while(IsPlayerConnected(playa)==0)
{
playa=random(MAX_PLAYERS);
}
}

if(IsPlayerConnected(playa)) Kick(playa);
I used a "If" before, because it makes me better to notice what's going on. I think you actually could just delete it.
This might not be the best sollution, but i guess it does, what you want it to do.

Pls correct me if i'm wrong. Thanks.

Cheers,
DeathOnaStick

It will because you can't kick someone who's not connected. I bet if(Kick(id)) { success } would have done the job as well, but that's not my point.

It might have been the topic-starter's fault, he didn't really specify what he really wants to achieve. Kick a random player from the actual list, or randomize a number and take action if that number happens to be a valid ID.
