First time, second time, third time, etc - knackworst - 24.09.2011

Hi, it's me again
I know that I post alot of threads here in the weekend, its cuz I only play SAMP in the weekend...

ok basically I have a question if something is possible, I think it easy, but I think it's very hard too!
ok, so what I need is something wich gets called every 5 seconds, and then in the public there are 5 things, wich should be done once per time the public gets called...

E.x:

pawn Код:

public fivesectimer(stuff here)
{
    SendClientMessage(playerid,COLOR_RED,"blahblah");
    SetPlayerHealth(playerid, 0);
    GameText(stuff here);
    Kick(playerid);
    ban(playerid);
}

ok, this stuff makes no sence, but its just to give a clear exampl
so what it should do is the following:
after 5 seconds you get the clientmessage
after another 5 seconds the playerhealth thing
after another 5 secs the Gametext
after anhother 5 secs, kick
after another 5 secs, ban

then, it should go to the clientmessage again...
I know it can be scripted by creating 5 different timers, but it is extremely stuid i guess since it's possible with another way, but I don't know how...

rep++ for helper

Create an integer inside the function that adds +5 ( integer = integer + 5; ) every time the function is called (every 5 seconds)
Then, make an if query inside the function:

pawn Код:

if(integer == 5)
{
    SendClientMessage(playerid,COLOR_RED,"blahblah");
}
else if(integer == 10)
{
    SetPlayerHealth(playerid, 0);
}
[...]

For a particular player or for all of them ? Answer me this and I will make it :3

Re: First time, second time, third time, etc - knackworst - 24.09.2011

For one player, I need it for making a conversation look alike in td
but I think that the other guy's method will work too, it's a bit like a timer, now I see it

Re: First time, second time, third time, etc - sleepysnowflake - 24.09.2011

pawn Код:

// Top :3
forward SumTimer(playerid);
new TimeValue = 0;

// Sumwhere.

    SetTimerEx("SumTimer",5000,1,"i",playerid);

//Sumwhere else :3

public SumTimer(playerid)
{
    switch(TimeValue)
        {
        case 0: SendClientMessage(playerid,16,"blahblah");
        case 1: SetPlayerHealth(playerid, 0);
        case 2: GameTextForPlayer(playerid,"b",5000,3);
        case 3: Kick(playerid);
        case 4: Ban(playerid);
        }
    TimeValue++;
    return 1;
}

Not tested. Test it, report bugs.

Ban after a kick ? Doesn't work, the player is disconnected after kick.

If you use /command ( with this timer ) on 2+ players, this thing will be bugged, You must to add [playerid] thing to TimeValue.

You forgot to use KillTimer somewhere.. Like this:

pawn Код:

// Top :3
forward SumTimer(playerid);
new TimeValue[MAX_PLAYERS] = 0;
new sTimer[MAX_PLAYERS];

// Sumwhere.

    sTimer[playerid] = SetTimerEx("SumTimer",5000,1,"i",playerid);

//Sumwhere else :3

public SumTimer(playerid)
{
    if(!IsPlayerConnected(playerid)) 
    {
        KillTimer(sTimer[playerid]);
        TimeValue[playerid] = 0;
        return 1;
    }
    switch(TimeValue[playerid])
        {
        case 0: SendClientMessage(playerid,16,"blahblah");
        case 1: SetPlayerHealth(playerid, 0);
        case 2: GameTextForPlayer(playerid,"b",5000,3);
        case 3: Kick(playerid);
        case 4: Ban(playerid);
        case 5: KillTimer(sTimer[playerid]); TimeValue[playerid] = 0;
        }
    TimeValue[playerid]++;
    return 1;
}
