the difference is one calls a public function at a set interval

the other SetTimerEx does the same
however it allows you to also pass arguments to the function
Thats the only difference i can tell.

This will run the timer for only one person.
pawn Код:
SetTimer("KillPlayer",5000,false);
This will run a timer for each player so as to not get mixed up timers.
pawn Код:
SetTimerEx("KillPlayer",5000,false,"d",playerid);

SetTimer is for calling functions with no parameters.
SetTimerEx is for calling functions with params.

To kill any timer.
pawn Код:
new timer = SetTimerEx("somefunc", 1000, false, "dd", 1, 3);
KillTimer(timer);
