What does the "_:" mean? - SUPERlittlefu - 15.02.2017

Hi,everybody!

I'm learning the SA-MP Scripting.
I found a include files.
But... I met a line code...
I don`t know what it means.

I searched the SA-MP wiki.
I searched the ******.

But nothing.

Code:

Код HTML:

for(new i; i < MAX_PLAYER_BARS; i++)
    pbar_Data[playerid][_:i][pbar_valid] = false;

That is called tag. Tags are prefixes in pawn, like Float:
_: actually means without tag.
For example when we say new something;
its same as telling new _

omething;

Its called "detag"*. It represents the value or variable or element without the tag.

PHP код:



new Float:real = 9.99; // has tag Float:

// you cannot do this

new integer = real;

// but can do this

new integer = _:real;
