Random Timer - knackworst - 25.10.2010

He guys, I have a cool maze map for my server, but to make it even cooler I want to change walls, like every 20seconds a wall moves... well is this possible whitout doing a command all the time?

You could use a 'timer function' that uses variables to know which walls he should move.
You need to be a bit experienced with timers though.

Little example:

forward ObjectTimer();
public ObjectTimer()
{
MoveObject(objectid, Float:X,Float:Y,Float:Z, Moving Speed);
return 1;
}

public OnGameModeInit()
{
SetTimer("ObjectTimer, 5000, true);
return 1;
}

This is just a minor example how to move an object in 5 seconds.
You can use 'variables' ( new ...; ) to let the script figure out where the object should move to.

Well, that's the most easiest way I can explain it to you..
So you should wait for another reply, else you might want to check out 'SA:MP' Wiki, loads of usefull information there!

Re: Random Timer - knackworst - 25.10.2010

well it just sounds so weirdl...
moving an object whitout doing a cmd, and making sure that after a while the object returns to its place...

btw, i'm new in scripting, so that makes it extremely hard...

Re: Random Timer - Jack Shred - 25.10.2010

Maybe you should try some less hard scripts for you and learn the basic ropes.
Anyway, here some SA:MP Wiki info about timers, might want to check out the 'related functions' aswell.
