Simple flashing color help - Fantje - 16.07.2016

I need help with something easy.

I want that you can type /vcolor and then your name color will be flashing on the map and in the chat (Flashing with 2 colours).

I know I have to use a Timer and SetPlayerColor but can you help me a bit more?

Thank you

What's wrong here:
PHP код:
forward FlashName(playerid);
public FlashName(playerid)
{
    new vFlash = random(sizeof(ColorFlash));
    SetPlayerColor(playerid, ColorFlash[vFlash]); // Replace the "COLOR" with your defined color.
    return 1;
}

Nothing, as long as your array that contains all the colors is fine every time FlashName is called it'll set their name color.

If your timer repeats it'll work fine.

The array ColorFlash should be 1D, and not 2D.
The colour is supposed to be a hex (integer), and not a string.

Example:
0xFF0000FF is red.

Re: Simple flashing color help - Fantje - 17.07.2016

Still got the error when I do this:

PHP код:
new ColorFlash[][] =
{
    "0xFF0000FF",
    "0xFF0000FF",
    "0xFF0000FF"
};
