How to make random? - Ben7544 - 13.04.2011

Well, I want to make that, when player press KEY_CROUCH it'll activate freeze for random player, for 10 seconds.

I done this to check if OnPlayerKeySateChange works, it works, now how I make it as I wanted up there ^:

Код:

public OnPlayerKeyStateChange(playerid, newkeys, oldkeys)
{
    if(newkeys & KEY_CROUCH)
    {
		SendClientMessage(playerid,0xFFFFFFFF, "WORKING");
		}
	return 1;
}

Thank you!

    if(newkeys & KEY_CROUCH)
    {
	SendClientMessage(playerid,0xFFFFFFFF, "WORKING");
	new randomid = random(500);//500=number of players
	TogglePlayerControllable(randomid, false);
	SendClientMessage(randomid,0xFFFFFFFF, "You've been freezed by someone.");
    }
    return 1;
}

He wouldn't be able to use this. It would only work if all 500 player slots were filled.

Not quite sure how you could do this. I'm sure a more experienced Pawn Programmer will know how to do this properly.

    }
    return 1;
}

This will ALSO have bugs. If there are 2 players, and one has ID 3, it will exclude him, and it might pick 2 which is not connected. Best way is using foreach.

pawn Код:

#include < foreach >
public OnPlayerKeyStateChange( playerid, newkeys, oldkeys )
{
    if( newkeys & KEY_CROUCH )
    {
        SendClientMessage( playerid,0xFFFFFFFF, "WORKING" );
        new randomid = Iter_Random( Player );
        TogglePlayerControllable( randomid, false );
        SendClientMessage( randomid,0xFFFFFFFF, "You've been frozen by someone." ); // It's frozen not freezed :P
    }
    return 1;
}
