How to create a new function - saffierr - 23.08.2015

How do I create an new SetTimerEx function?

Currently I want this function to create "DelayedConnect"

Can you please explain more...what you wanna do?

Re: How to create a new function - Abagail - 23.08.2015

You are probably speaking about a callback which is called like a OnPlayerConnect callback but delayed, right? You can do something such as:

pawn Код:

new PlayerConnectTimer[MAX_PLAYERS];
public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
       PlayerConnectTimer[playerid] = SetTimerEx("DelayedConnect", 5000, false, "i", playerid);
       return 1;
}

public OnPlayerDisconnect(playerid, reason) return KillTimer(PlayerConnectTimer[playerid]);

forward DelayedConnect(playerid);
public DelayedConnect(playerid)
{
     PlayerConnectTimer[playerid] = 0;
     return 1;
}

Код:

public OnPlayerConnect(playerid) {
    SetTimerEx("DelayedFunction", 1000, false, "i", playerid); //calling function "DelayedFunction", AFTER 1000ms, nonrepeating, passing playerid to the function
    return 1;
}

forward DelayedFunction(playerid);
public DelayedFunction(playerid) {
    SendClientMessage(playerid, -1, "This message will be delayed 1 second after "OnPlayerConnect" is called.");
}

mmmm @MrGtaSagamer, your link has explained me a bit, although I do not understand it fully.
I have understood a part though(but thanks for the link, it's useful)
ALTHOUGH, mrgatsagamer could you explain me exactly, step by step how I create them? Would be very very appreciated.

Sorry for double post, but I will explain it.

PHP код:



public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)

{

     new string[350], pName[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];

    GetPlayerName(playerid, pName, MAX_PLAYER_NAME);

    format(string,sizeof string, "%s has joined the server.", pName);

    SetTimerEx("DelayedConnect", 2000, false, "i", playerid);

    SendClientMessageToAll(COLOR_GREY, string);

    return 1;

}

forward DelayedConnect(playerid);

public DelayedConnect(playerid);

When I connect to my server, it says "(Name) has joined the server.", I want to have my name at the very least

}

forward DelayedConnect(playerid);

public DelayedConnect(playerid);

So you want to remove the "Connected to.. " ?

omg stupid me, WITHDRAWN. I am so dumb lol nvm this at all.

Although I'd like to learn how I can create an SetTimerEx Function. Just teach me how I can make such a fucntion please, and it'd be alright.

Re: How to create a new function - Abagail - 23.08.2015

You already made the function, you just didn't place any code inside.

pawn Код:

forward DelayedFunction(playerid);
public DelayedFunction(playerid)
{
    new pName[24];
    GetPlayerName(playerid, pName, 24);

    new string[128];
    format(string, sizeof string, "(%s) has joined the server.", pName);
    SendClientMessageToAll(-1, string);
    return 1;
}
