error 008 problem with switch(playerid) - niels44 - 18.10.2012

hey everyone,

i made this switch for my GM but somehow it gives me errors and i dont know why...

pawn Код:

WaitForBot( playerid, menu, action[] )
{
    PlayerInfo[playerid][botready] = false;
    switch(playerid)
    {
        case FirstRaceBot:
        {
            SendClientMessage(FirstRaceBot, COLOR_GREEN, action );
        }
        case FirstFightBot:
        {
            SendClientMessage(FirstFightBot, COLOR_GREEN, action );
        }
        case SecondFightBot:
        {
            SendClientMessage(SecondFightBot, COLOR_GREEN, action );
        }
    }
    PlayerInfo[playerid][waitingforbot] = SetTimerEx("WaitForBotTimer",250,true,"dd",playerid,menu );
    return 1;
}

i get these errors:

pawn Код:

D:\Program Files\High Speed Drivers\gamemodes\HighSpeedDrivers.pwn(721) : error 008: must be a constant expression; assumed zero

Try to use "if" statements. Because you can't use variables with switch. So use else if.
