Use SetTimerEx... sorry cant link you up to the wiki since im on phone...neither i can make a code for you atm.

then basically define that public code that the timer is going to use

forward TTimerNam(playerid);

then ur time function

public TimerName(playerid)

and in the public function hide all the textdraw which u have shown before

use wiki samp... and look for SetTimerEx

If you're using the textdraw globally, which it looks like, there's no need to use SetTimerEx.
Here's an example to set up your timer:
Where you display the textdraw, start the timer

pawn Код:

SetTimer("MyPublic", 4000, false);

"MyPublic" - The public the timer will call when it ends
4000 - The time it takes before the public is called
false - A boolean(true/false) if the timer should repeat or not, we don't want it to repeat, just be called once, so we use false

Now the public:

pawn Код:

forward MyPublic(); // When creating a public function, you always need to forward it
public MyPublic() // The public the timer will call, any code under the public will be executed when the timer ends
{
    foreach(new i: Player) // Loop through all players, assuming you have the textdraw globally for all players
    {
        TextDrawHideForPlayer(i, Textdraw0); // Hide the textdraw for all players, "i"
    }
}

If you only have the textdraw for 1 person at a time, you should use [playerid] on your variable, as well as SetTimerEx.
If you're using it for a cmd etc:

/welcomeall
Loop through all players and show the textdraw

Then just set the public up like in the example.

i talk about for this

Re: TextDraw help - CalvinC - 01.04.2015

So you're using it when a player connects?
Then you should use SetTimerEx.
Basically instead of the SetTimer:

pawn Код:

SetTimer("MyPublic", 4000, false, "i", playerid);

"i" - Which format to use, the players ID is a number, so we use an integer (i or d)
playerid - What integer(number) should we pass on? The playerid.
And then the public and forwards parameters should contain "playerid", so you don't need a loop, just hide it for playerid:

pawn Код:

forward MyPublic(playerid); // When creating a public function, you always need to forward it
public MyPublic(playerid) // The public the timer will call, any code under the public will be executed when the timer ends
{
    TextDrawHideForPlayer(playerid, Textdraw0[playerid]); // Hide the textdraw for playerid
}

Nvm about the array part, but read the rest.
