Payday check - vernz - 06.01.2017

Hi, I was wondering if there is better method than using a 1 sec global timer for paycheck

Код:
task GlobalTimer[1000]()
{
	new H, M, S;
	gettime(H, M, S);
	
    foreach(new i: Player)
    {
        if(!PlayerInfo[i][IsLoggedIn]) continue;
       
		if(M == 0 && S == 0)
		{
		    if(PlayerInfo[i][pConnectedTime] >= 25)
		    {
		    	// If the player have at least 25 minutes played during the entire hour.
		    	PlayerInfo[i][pConnectedTime] = 0;
			}
			else
			{		
				// If not SendErrorMessage
			}
		}
		else if(S == 0)
		{
			// Add +1 each minutes
		    if(PlayerInfo[i][pConnectedTime] < 25)
		    {
		        ++PlayerInfo[i][pConnectedTime];
			}
		}
	}
	return 1;
}

there is no need to do it every millisecond right? A second is enough i guess, maybe even more than a second

Re: Payday check - vernz - 06.01.2017

I meant 1000 ms * 1 sec sorry

Re: Payday check - BiosMarcel - 06.01.2017

Well so basically, there are some ways:

1. Use a global timer, like you do
2. Per player timers
3. OnPlayerUpdate

I'd consider a global timer using foreach (like u do), that's just my opinion though

Re: Payday check - vernz - 06.01.2017

I was considering GetTickCount but I'm not quite sure how to proceed

This is also a correct opinion,

"This callback is called, on average, 30 times per second, per player; only use it when you know "

Well, basically you have to do five things

1. Get the TickCount under OnPlayerConnect (furthermore at the point where he actually logs in)
2. Get the TickCount inside of your timer function
3. Get the difference using for example this method:

PHP код:
stock getTickDiff(newTick, oldTick) 
{ 
    if (oldTick < 0 && newTick >= 0) { 
        return newTick - oldTick; 
    } else if (oldTick >= 0 && newTick < 0 || oldTick > newTick) { 
        return (cellmax - oldTick + 1) - (cellmin - newTick); 
    } 
    return newTick - oldTick; 
} 
4. check if the difference (in ms) is more or equal to 25 minutes (assuming u want the payday to hapen every 25 minutes)
5. reset the "connectedTickCount" and do the payout



OR you just create a playertimer doing a payout every 25 minutes, as soon he connects

Not every 25 minutes, every hour like so but to be eligible to get paid, he needs at least 25 minutes played during that entire hour.

That's why I need to increment PlayerInfo[playerid][pConnectedTime] every minutes then every hour server time if he played 25 minutes, it gets reset

Re: Payday check - BiosMarcel - 06.01.2017

You could do this:

PHP код:
new connectTick[MAX_PLAYERS];

public OnGameModeInit()
{
    SetTimer("paydaycheck", 3600000/*1 Hour*/, true);
}

public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
    connectTick[playerid] = GetTickCount();
}

forward paydaycheck();
public paydaycheck()
{
    foreach(new player : Player)
    {
        new tickDifference = getTickDiff(GetTickCount(), connectTick[playerid]);

        if(tickDifference >= 1500000/*25 Minutes*/)
        {
            PAYDAY();
        }
    }
}

stock getTickDiff(newTick, oldTick) 
{ 
    if (oldTick < 0 && newTick >= 0) { 
        return newTick - oldTick; 
    } else if (oldTick >= 0 && newTick < 0 || oldTick > newTick) { 
        return (cellmax - oldTick + 1) - (cellmin - newTick); 
    } 
    return newTick - oldTick; 
} 
Hope i understood your needs.

Got it thanks, I knew I could do it without checking every seconds, way better every hour, thanks !
