Kameleon car - WThieves - 24.12.2009

Help!, i want to make a command that makes it so that yout car acts like a kameleon, with this i mean it changes its color to a random one every second, how do i do this?
I've got this:
Quote:

if (strcmp(cmd, "/Kameleon", true) ==0 )
{
SetTimer("Kameleon", 1000, 0);
}
Quote:

public Kameleon(playerid)
{
RandomVehColor(playerid);
SetTimer("Kameleon2", 1000, 0);
}
public Kameleon2(playerid)
{
RandomVehColor(playerid);
SetTimer("Kameleon", 1000, 0);
}
It compiles and all but it doesn't work

1. Why do you use 2 timers?
2. How did you declare the function"RandomVehColor"?

1:I used 2 timers for a loop
2:
Quote:

public RandomVehColor(playerid)
{
if(!IsPlayerInAnyVehicle(playerid)) return 0;
new rcolor = random(126); //max colors
ChangeVehicleColor(playerid,rcolor,rcolor);
return 1;
}

Yeah, what's the point in two different timers if they both do the same thing?

pawn Код:
new Chameleon[MAX_PLAYERS];//At the top, btw how you actually spell it :P

if(!strcmp(cmd, "/kameleon", true))
{
   if(Chameleon[playerid]==-1)
       Chameleon[playerid]=SetTimerEx("Kameleon", 1000, 1, "i", playerid); 
   else
   {
       KillTimer(Chameleon[playerid]);
       Chameleon[playerid]=-1;
   }
}

public Kameleon(playerid)
{
  RandomVehColor(playerid);
  return 1;
}
That would be a better version of it. The reason it wasn't working, was because you need to use SetTimerEx when the public function has parameters. And for a loop, just use a 1 in the last parameter of SetTimer. Just make sure you store the timer id to kill it later.

Re: Kameleon car - Backwardsman97 - 24.12.2009

Use the code I posted. You changed the name of the public function, which was already assigned to the global variable of Chameleon.
pawn Код:
public Chameleon(playerid) //26827
Should have stayed:
pawn Код:
public Kameleon(playerid)
