Hello.

How do you want to structure your tutorial? In a dialog or with a text in the chat?
Should the tutorial go on automatically with a timer or should the player press a button in the dialog to go on?

Hey, I want it with a timer, and in a text message, just setting the camera on some views, and making sendclientmessages, but how do i force spawn the player when the tutorial finishes etc?
thanks

OK.

You can do it like this:
PHP код:
//when the tutorial starts:
//1st message
SendClientMessage(playerid,-1,"here the text");
SetTimerEx("OnPlayerInTutorial",10000,0,"ii",playerid,1);
//the callback for the timer:
forward OnPlayerInTutorial(playerid,step);
public OnPlayerInTutorial(playerid,step)
{
    switch(step)
    {
        case 1:
        {
            //2nd message
            SendClientMessage(playerid,-1,"here the text");
            SetTimerEx("OnPlayerInTutorial",10000,0,"ii",playerid,2);
            return 1;
        }
        case 2:
        {
            //3rd message
            SendClientMessage(playerid,-1,"here the text");
            SetTimerEx("OnPlayerInTutorial",10000,0,"ii",playerid,3);
            return 1;
        }
        case 4:
        {
            //4th message
            SendClientMessage(playerid,-1,"here the text");
            SetTimerEx("OnPlayerInTutorial",10000,0,"ii",playerid,5);
            return 1;
        }
        case 5:
        {
            //last tutorial step
            SendClientMessage(playerid,-1,"here the text");
            SetTimerEx("OnPlayerInTutorial",10000,0,"ii",playerid,5);
            return 1;
        }
        case 6:
        {
            SendClientMessage(playerid,-1,"You're tutorial is finish.");
            SpawnPlayer(playerid);
            return 1;
        }
    }
    return 1;
} 
You can take SetPlayerCameraPos (+SetPlayerCameraLookAt) or InterpolateCameraPos (+InterpolateCameraLookAt).

SetPlayerCameraPos + SetPlayerCameraLookAt => the camera is on a fix point and show to a fix point
InterpolateCameraPos + InterpolateCameraLookAt => the camera move (you can fix the seconds how long the camera should move)

More information you can get in sa-mp wiki.

You need the runtimes, in particular the 2015 ones are what the streamer needs.
