VERY annoying Problem :( - BlackWolf120 - 02.03.2011

hi,

this bug already bugs me for such a long time now and i just CANT get this solved

This is also the last bug preventing me to get my server finally online!

There is a checkpoint on the map.
As soon as a player enters it, i want that a textdraw appears for only this player that has entered the cp.
This textdraw shall count from 20 down to 0.Thats how it should be

But its totally buged

If there are more than 1 player on the server the textdraw doesnt appear at all or just for one single player if he enters the cp.
Another issue is that it is counting down faster as soon as there are 2 or more players in the cp at the same time.
Also i want the countdown to be killed for a player as soon as he leaves the cp.
So this is what i got, i tried so much and modified it about 20 times but its still not working

I hope someone can fix this for me

pawn Код:

//at the top of the script

forward counterzone(playerid);
new countdownzone[MAX_PLAYERS] = 20;
new CDONZone[MAX_PLAYERS];

new Text:MiniCountdown;

//OnGameModeInit

MiniCountdown = TextDrawCreate(3.000000, 412.000000, "20");
TextDrawBackgroundColor(MiniCountdown, 255);
TextDrawFont(MiniCountdown, 3);
TextDrawLetterSize(MiniCountdown, 0.939999, 3.900000);
TextDrawColor(MiniCountdown, -1);
TextDrawSetOutline(MiniCountdown, 1);
TextDrawSetProportional(MiniCountdown, 1);
TextDrawUseBox(MiniCountdown, 0);
TextDrawBoxColor(MiniCountdown, 1684300900);
TextDrawTextSize(MiniCountdown, 41.000000, 0.000000);

//OnPlayerEnterCheckpoint

CDONZone[playerid] = SetTimerEx("counterzone",990,false,"i",playerid);


//the timer

public counterzone(playerid)
{
if(countdownzone[playerid] > 0)
{
TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid,MiniCountdown);
new textformat[85];
format(textformat,sizeof textformat,"~g~%d",countdownzone[playerid]);
TextDrawSetString(MiniCountdown,textformat);
CDONZone[playerid] = SetTimerEx("counterzone",990,false,"i",playerid);
countdownzone[playerid] --;
}

return 1;
}

//OnPlayerLeaveCheckpoint

KillTimer(CDONZone[playerid]);
countdownzone[playerid] = 20;
TextDrawHideForPlayer(playerid,MiniCountdown);

This is all i got for this countdown and im begging you to help me

thanks in advance.

regards...

Thats the cause of this

pawn Код:

new countdownzone[MAX_PLAYERS] = 20;

which set the first cell to 20 and leave the rest

pawn Код:

new countdownzone[MAX_PLAYERS] = {20, ...};

It doesnt count faster, there are only two different timers running which update the textdraw
And that is the problem because there is only one textdraw!

Hi there again,
as you've called me in PM for help, here you go:

At TOP:

pawn Код:

forward counterzone(playerid);
new countdownzone[MAX_PLAYERS] = {20,...};
new CDONZone[MAX_PLAYERS];
new Text:MiniCountdown[MAX_PLAYERS];

At OnPlayerEnterCheckpoint:

pawn Код:

CDONZone[playerid] = SetTimerEx("counterzone",990,true,"i",playerid);
MiniCountdown[playerid] = TextDrawCreate(3.000000, 412.000000, "20");
TextDrawBackgroundColor(MiniCountdown[playerid], 255);
TextDrawFont(MiniCountdown[playerid], 3);
TextDrawLetterSize(MiniCountdown[playerid], 0.939999, 3.900000);
TextDrawColor(MiniCountdown[playerid], -1);
TextDrawSetOutline(MiniCountdown[playerid], 1);
TextDrawSetProportional(MiniCountdown[playerid], 1);
TextDrawUseBox(MiniCountdown[playerid], 0);
TextDrawBoxColor(MiniCountdown[playerid], 1684300900);
TextDrawTextSize(MiniCountdown[playerid], 41.000000, 0.000000);

The timer

pawn Код:

public counterzone(playerid)
{
    if(countdownzone[playerid] > 0)
    {
        TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid,MiniCountdown[playerid]);
        new textformat[10];
        format(textformat,sizeof textformat,"~g~%d",countdownzone[playerid]);
        TextDrawSetString(MiniCountdown[playerid],textformat);
        countdownzone[playerid] --;
    }
    return 1;
}

At OnPlayerLeaveCheckpoint

pawn Код:

KillTimer(CDONZone[playerid]);
countdownzone[playerid] = 20;
TextDrawHideForPlayer(playerid, MiniCountdown[playerid]);
TextDrawDestroy(MiniCountdown[playerid]);

I think this should work. Give it a shot.

Jeffry
