Syntax error with timers? - xXitsgodzillaXx - 24.09.2013

Okay for some reason I'm getting this error:

Quote:

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\DDPUSI TDM\gamemodes\DDPTDM.pwn(557

: error 076: syntax error in the expression, or invalid function call

With this line, and I don't know how to fix it! Help is appreciated!

pawn Код:

timer[playerid][CityHallTimer] = SetTimerEx("CityHallTimer", 30000, false,"i",playerid);

Here is the entire function.

Try this.

pawn Код:

new cityhalltimer_[MAX_PLAYERS]; //use this if you're using it elsewhere; like in a KillTimer function.

stock ActiveCityHall(playerid)
{
    if(Spectating[playerid] == 0 || SInfo[playerid][pOnDuty] == 0)
    {
        if(UnderAttack[CityHall] == 0)
        {
            if(!IsPlayerInAnyVehicle(playerid))
            {
                UnderAttack[CityHall] = 1;
                cityhalltimer_[playerid] = SetTimerEx("CityHallTimer", 30000, false,"i",playerid);
                AnnounceTimer[playerid] = SetTimerEx("tensecs", 20000, false,"i",playerid);
                Captured[playerid][CityHall] = 0;
                SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFFFFFFFF,"| - Stay in this checkpoint for 30 seconds to capture! - |");
                PlayAudioStreamForPlayer(playerid, "http://nikon.bungie.org/misc/h2dialogue/multiplayer/thirty_seconds_remaining.mp3");
                if(gTeam[playerid] == TEAM_CHINA)
                {

This why I have this.

pawn Код:

new timer[MAX_PLAYERS][50];

Re: Syntax error with timers? - JamesH - 25.09.2013

Did you try to remove timer[playerid][CityHallTimer] ?

Give it a try and use only SetTimerEx("CityHallTimer", 30000, false,"i",playerid);

PM me if you need more help into it.

Re: Syntax error with timers? - Konstantinos - 25.09.2013

CityHallTimer is used to both - for storing the timer ID and inside the enum. Just change the name to another.

Re: Syntax error with timers? - xXitsgodzillaXx - 25.09.2013

This is what im getting when I change the name.

pawn Код:

error 017: undefined symbol "CityHallTimer"

Re: Syntax error with timers? - Konstantinos - 26.09.2013

pawn Код:

timer[playerid][CityHallTimer] = SetTimerEx("OnCityHallUpdate", 30000, false,"i",playerid);

// Also replace to:
forward OnCityHallUpdate(playerid);
public OnCityHallUpdate(playerid)

And you're done!

new CityHallTimer;
