new Year,Month,Day;
getdate(Year,Month,Day);

and to give something
if(Day == whateverday) // This Checks IF The Day , From Your Pc
{
give something Using Your Codes // like giveplayer money whatever
return 1; // return 1 is not really necessary ..

}

Yup i know about the getdate thing, but should I give everyweekend date?? for date params?? any other optimized way of processing it??

Insanely difficult to achieve. Consider parsing it through another language. If you already use MySQL you can get it using DAYOFWEEK() or WEEKDAY(). Otherwise you can send a HTTP request to a PHP page that outputs the result of date().

This can be possible if you fill an array every month or so (manually) with the Sat/Sun days using calender like this, 'MonthDays' array has all the Sat/Sun days in the month of January, 16.

Код:

new MonthDays[10] = {"2", "3", "9", "10", "16", "17", "23", "24", "30", "31");

stock IsWeekend()
{
    new dd, mm, yy;
    getdate(yy, mm, dd);
    for(new i=0; i<10; i++)
    {
        if(MonthDays[i] == dd)
        {
            return true;
        }
    }
    return false;
}

There is function for this, I have absolutely no idea how it works

Код:

GetWeekDay(day=0, month=0, year=0) 
{ 
if(!day) getdate(year, month, day); 
new j, e; 
if(month <= 2) 
{ 
month += 12; 
--year; 
} 
j = year % 100; 
e = year / 100; 
switch((day + (month+1)*26/10 + j + j/4 + e/4 - 2*e) % 7) 
{ 
case 0: return 6; //Saturday
case 1: return 7; //Sunday
case 2: return 1; //Monday 
case 3: return 2; //Tuesday
case 4: return 3; //Wednesday
case 5: return 4; //Thursday
case 6: return 5; //Friday
} 
return -1; 
}

Re: getdate help - DetoNater - 25.12.2015

i have an idea

pawn Код:

dsweekendcheck()
{
    dsweekendtime++;
    if(dsweekendtime >= 518400 && dsweekendtime <= 604800) // 518400 is 6th day and 604800 is 7th day which incl Saturday and Sunday, here monday is starting of week, which is day 1
    {
    dsweekend = 1;
    }
    else dsweekend = 0;
       if(dsweekendtime == 604800)
       {
       dsweekendtime = 0;
       }
}

i will start the gamemode on monday sharp 12:00am, the dsweekendtime will get advancing, but a doubt there's a restart of gamemode everyday, so the dsweekendtime will reset right? can i save the advancing time in mysql and fetch back when it starts back??
P.S: I use the dsweekend++ in task globaltimer[1000]()

Why not use a timer which is executed every day and then disablef by a new timer? It's pure math

PHP код:



SELECT WEEKDAY(CURDATE());

Could hardly be easier.
