Whos got the fewest deaths? - Timmeyable - 21.08.2012

Hi,

I want to know how I can find out which player has the fewest deaths.
The deaths are saved via SetPVarInt.

Example:

Let's say Player 1 has died 10 times. Player 2 compared to only 8 times.
A timer find out which player has the fewest deaths from all players.
In this case that would be the second player. A message should be send to all
players like: Player 2 won the game.

I think i need a loop through all the players but I do not know how to do it.

I hope you know what i mean

You have two vars;
* A var which stores the player with the least deaths (default = 0)
* A var which stores the deaths of this player (default = 999999999999 or something).

Use a loop to loop through each player. Each round you check if the deaths of the player is lower than the saved deaths. If this is true, set the vars.

I hope I gave you an idea

Why would you use a timer if OnPlayerDeath callback is called automatically each time someone dies?

He said this will happen when the round ends

Exactly Jochemd.

Thanks, i test it out.

By the way, isn't it better to check for a kill/death ratio?

Код:

ratio = kills/deaths

Well, of course it'll be more efficient to use a loop instead of doing it in OnPlayerDeath if you're needing to know the player with fewest deaths only when the round ends, but if you want to i.e. display a text draw with the name of the player with the fewest deaths it's a lot more efficient to use OnPlayerDeath instead.

Something like this: (untested code, but I hope you get the point)

pawn Код:

static fewestdeaths_player = INVALID_PLAYER_ID, fewestdeaths_count, deaths[MAX_PLAYERS];

stock GetPlayerWithFewestDeaths()
    return fewestdeaths_player;

public OnPlayerDeath(playerid, killerid, reason)
{
    deaths[playerid]++;

    if(fewestdeaths_player == playerid)
    {
        fewestdeaths_player = INVALID_PLAYER_ID;
        fewestdeaths_count++;
    }

    if(fewestdeaths_player == INVALID_PLAYER_ID)
    {
        new loneplayer = INVALID_PLAYER_ID;

        foreach(Player, id)
        {
            if(deaths[id] < fewestdeaths_count)
            {
                if(loneplayer == INVALID_PLAYER_ID)
                {
                    loneplayer = id;
                }
                else
                {
                    fewestdeaths_count = deaths[id];
                    loneplayer = INVALID_PLAYER_ID;
                    break;
                }
            }
        }

        if(loneplayer != INVALID_PLAYER_ID)
        {
            fewestdeaths_player = loneplayer;
            fewestdeaths_count = deaths[loneplayer];
        }
    }

    return 1;
}

You can use my top player's include by inserting deaths as data and getting playerid acc to ascending order.
