Replace Thing[MAX_PLAYERS][10]; wtih PVars - ikey07 - 30.07.2010

So how to use PVars if I need to set each player something with 10 subthings,

Now I have for example:

pawn Код:

new Thing[MAX_PLAYERS][10];

OnSomeWhere()
{
Thing[playerid][0] = 23;
Thing[playerid][1] = 34;
}

and how should I make this with PVars?

Use this:

SetPVarInt(playerid, "Thing1", 23);
SetPVarInt(playerid, "Thing2", 34);

Hmm.. this is only way?

because than script getting full very fast, because can't use for(new .....
Thing[playerid][i] = 0; etc

So, why don't you want to use the variables? I always work with them, its easier to script with them, and better for loops.

pawn Код:

for (new i = 0; i < MAX_SOMETHING; i++)
{
    new str[20];
    format(str, 20, "Thing%d", i);
    SetPVarInt(playerid, str, 0);
}

Well, yeah^^, but I read in Server updates page, that its save a lot of Memory, All Variables set to 0 automaticly after player leaves server, also don't need to spam half of script with new Things many....

EDIT, Thx Dice7, I will try

try to use

SetPVarInt(playerid, "Thing1", 23);
SetPVarInt(playerid, "Thing2", 34);

should be

pawn Код:

for (new i = 0; i < MAX_SOMETHING; i++)
{
    new str[20];
    format(str, 20, "Thing%d", i);
    SetPVarInt(i, str, 0);
}

just spotted that

Only use PVars for things that need to be shared across scripts, if not, why use PVARS?

Functions are SLOWER than varibles, so the pData array would be best.

No.
That would do the following:

Store zero in 'Thing0' for playerid 0
Store zero in 'Thing1' for playerid 1
Store zero in 'Thing2' for playerid 2
Store zero in 'Thing3' for playerid 3
etc
