Lil of a problem with my timer. - JamesS - 23.03.2013

Scripthing something which will reduce the player's health by 1 every second, and stop on the players' death, but it seems to be crashing my server...

Anyone who could thow in his code for this real quick? I was using a repeating timer, but that wasn't working out so well.

This could be used as an include if you wanted to. If not, take the code from the hook statements and put it into the correct callbacks.

pawn Код:

#include <a_samp>
#include <YSI\y_timers>
#include <YSI\y_hooks>

new
   g_Spawned[MAX_PLAYERS] = false
;

ptask removeHealthPoint[1000](playerid)
{
    if(g_Spawned[playerid])
    {
        new
            Float:fHealth
        ;
        
        GetPlayerHealth(playerid, fHealth);
        SetPlayerHealth(playerid, fHealth-1);
    }
    return 1;
}

hook OnPlayerDeath(playerid, reason)
{
    g_Spawned[playerid] = false;
    return 1;
}

hook OnPlayerSpawn(playerid)
{
    g_Spawned[playerid] = true;
    return 1;
}

You'll need y_timers for this to work.

no way to do this w/o y_timers?

Re: Lil of a problem with my timer. - Patrick - 23.03.2013

here you go without y_hooks and y_timers

pawn Код:

#include <a_samp>

main () { }

new
   bool:g_Spawned[MAX_PLAYERS] = false
;

public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
    SetTimerEx("RemoveHealthPoint", 1000, true,"i",playerid); //put this where you want your timer
    return 1;
}

forward RemoveHealthPoint(playerid);
public RemoveHealthPoint(playerid)
{
    if(g_Spawned[playerid])
    {
        new
            Float:fHealth
        ;
        GetPlayerHealth(playerid, fHealth);
        SetPlayerHealth(playerid, fHealth-1);
    }
    return 1;
}

public OnPlayerDeath(playerid,killerid,reason)
{
    g_Spawned[playerid] = false;
    return 1;
}

public OnPlayerSpawn(playerid)
{
    g_Spawned[playerid] = true;
    return 1;
}

pds2012 did it above. However, you really should use y_timers. It may seem confusing at first, but it's honestly 100,000x easier than using SetTimer() and SetTimerEx(). Plus, I don't think the timers collide as much with y_timers.

As a side note, depleting someone's health by 1 each second would kill them in 1 minute and 40 seconds... :P

Still gives me the same problem, when I die, it's all good, hp going down, when I die again, I respawn, also okay, but if I die again, I spawn in the middle of nowhere, and nothing is working anymore, please help me out here!

Re: Lil of a problem with my timer. - Scenario - 23.03.2013

Seems like a different problem in your script then. The code I gave you doesn't set the player's position to a different location and it shouldn't effect that.

Can you show your OnPlayerDeath and OnPlayerSpawn callbacks?

It's a whole gamemode. Anyways, I think the problem is that a timer gets set twice..
