pawn Код:

public OnPlayerEnterCheckpoint( playerid )
{
    new 
        rand = random( sizeof( RandomMoney ) );

    GivePlayerMoney( playerid, RandomMoney[ rand ][ 0 ] );// this line gives the error
    DisablePlayerCheckpoint( playerid );
    return 1;
}

Edit: Try it now, I forgot to add the "[ 0 ]" before.
It should work.

You don't need the extra dimension!

Change the array to this:

pawn Код:

new RandomMoney[] =
{
    5000,
    3900,
    8900,
    7600,
    6758,
    4589,
    3000
};

It gives the error because it was returning another array instead of the integer

yeah that works XD
eehm and how do i make it that when the player enters the cp he gets the money and a msg says how much money he has earned?

Re: [REP+]why this random gives error? and how to fix it? - Babul - 04.02.2012

you created a 2dimensional array, thats not needed for a linear ordered amount of values:

pawn Код:

new RandomMoney[]={
    5000,
    3900,
    8900,
    7600,
    6758,
    4589,
    3000
};

and then, the same as Dwane suggested: (now including the message ^^)

pawn Код:

new rnd=random(sizeof(RandomMoney));
GivePlayerMoney(playerid,RandomMoney[rnd]);
new string[128];
format(string,sizeof(string),"You earned $%d",RandomMoney[rnd]);
SendClientMessage(playerid,0x33aa33ff,string);

edit: lucky you, i posted between. just delete the double shit hehe

Use format in the code that Dwane provided:

pawn Код:

public OnPlayerEnterCheckpoint( playerid )
{
    new 
        rand = random( sizeof( RandomMoney ) );

    GivePlayerMoney( playerid, RandomMoney[ rand ] );
    format(string, sizeof(string), "You earned $%d!", RandomMoney[rand]); //Change the message to whatever you like :P
    SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFFFFFFFF, string); //Sends the message
    DisablePlayerCheckpoint( playerid );
    return 1;
}

EDIT: This time "Babul" was faster XD
