How to make connect message delayed? - grand.Theft.Otto - 24.03.2011
Say when a player connects, it shows a textdraw or gametext on the screen, etc...
I want it to be delayed for maybe 5 seconds so the player can take a quick look before it puts the player into class selection.
Do I use SetTimer?

Yes that can be used.

He want's to delay the execution of code so the player screen will be 'frozen' for a while.. at least that is what I think he wants to do.

Yes, gamer_Z is correct.
Re: How to make connect message delayed? - Gamer_Z - 24.03.2011
Yep then let's say, make a copy of your current 'public OnPlayerconnect...' and name it something like OnPlayerConnect2 and in OnPlayerConnect make a timer that calls OnPlayerConnect2 BUT do NOT use SETTIMER BUT INSTEAD USE SetTimerEx("OnPlayerConnect2",5000,0,"d",playerid) ;
example:
pawn Код:
public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
SetTimerEx("OnPlayerConnect2",5000,0,"d",playerid);
return 1;
}
forward OnPlayerConnect2(playerid);
public OnPlayerConnect2(playerid)
{
//your original onplayerconnect code
}

Thanks. But it delays 5 seconds AFTER the player is in class selection, not when they are on the Santa Marina Beach background.
Do you know why?

Maybe it's the client that after load it goes to another 'default' location? Or your code is maybe wrong.
