Info about random gmx - Face9000 - 15.09.2015

Assuming i have 5 minigames (each game in gamemodes folder), how i can create a random gmx command that selects RANDOMLY this 5 minigames except the one played before restart?

AW: Info about random gmx - Kaliber - 15.09.2015

Just like this:

PHP Code:
new last;
//OnGameModeInit
last = LoadLastRestart();
//The function:
stock GetRandomRestart() //returns the id of the minigame to restart
{
    new x;
    do {
        x = random(5); //The 5 is the max minigames
    }
    while(x==last);
    SaveNewRestart(x);
    return x;
}
stock SaveNewRestart(x) {
    new File:f=fopen("restart.txt",io_write),tmp[4];
    return valstr(tmp,x),fwrite(f,tmp),fclose(f);
}
stock LoadLastRestart()
{
    if(!fexist("restart.txt")) return -1;
    new File:f=fopen("restart.txt",io_read),tmp[4];
    return fread(f,tmp),fclose(f),strval(tmp);
}

Create an array with the filenames and randomly pick one. Pick again if it is the same. Assuming that a filterscript will handle this, something like this should work.
PHP Code:
// global
static gCurrentIndex = -1;

// local stuff in function that handles the change
static const FILE_NAMES[][] = {
  "file1",
  "file2",
  "file3"
};

new randomIndex;

do 
{
    randomIndex = random(sizeof(FILE_NAMES));
}
while(randomIndex == gCurrentIndex);

gCurrentIndex = randomIndex;

new rconCommand[16 + sizeof(FILE_NAMES[])];
format(rconCommand, sizeof(rconCommand), "changemode %s.amx", FILE_NAMES[gCurrentIndex]);
SendRconCommand(rconCommand);

Posts above beat me to it.

Thanks everybody.

@Vince: Where i have to place that code? In all the 5 gamemodes or just in a normal filterscript so i can call remotely using CallRemoteFunction in every gamemode?
