[SOLVED] Making a command available ONLY when & during a timer is active - Sibuscus - 16.03.2017

I want to make a command that players can use when someone gets banned. For example, some dude gets banned, a timer gets started (RIPTimer) for 1 minute and players can do /rip, but only once and basically spam messages from everyone who uses /rip would appear on the screen with a static message. So, the point is that everyone can use this ONCE for the duration of the timer. But, for some reason I cannot script it right.

First I forward

Код:

forward RIPTimer(giveplayerid);

then add this to the enums

Код:

enum pInfo
{
    pRIP
}

Then I make a function that will change the player's pRIP status back to 0 when the timer is done

Код:

public RIPTimer(giveplayerid)
{
    PlayerInfo[giveplayerid][pRIP]==0;
}

Here's my command. I NEED HELP HERE:

Код:

CMD:rip(playerid,params[])
{
	new PlayerName[MAX_PLAYER_NAME], str[128];
	GetPlayerRPName(playerid, PlayerName, sizeof(PlayerName));
	if(/*Need to add here to check if the RIPTimer is active*/)
	{
	    if(PlayerInfo[playerid][pRIP]==0)
	    {
	        PlayerInfo[playerid][pRIP]==1;
	        format(str, 128, "[BS] {} Player %s has expressed their condolences for the banned player", );
	        SendClientMessageToAll(COLOR_DARKCORAL, str);
		}
	}
	else
  	{
  		SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR_DARKCORAL, "[BS] {AFAFAF}You can use this command once for a period of 1 minute after a player gets banned!");
    }
    return 1;
}

Since I'm the only one currently testing and developing the server I need a test command. This is to activate the timer to test the /rip command.

Код:

CMD:riptimer(playerid,params[])
{
    SetTimerEx("RIPTimer", 30000, 0, "d", i);
    return 1;
}

if(RipActive == 1)
{
// Your function
}

Код:

CMD:riptimer(playerid,params[])

Thanks for the idea, I did it this way. Now i have another problem

At the rip command when it prints out the message. I want it do be extremely distinctive from the other messages so u can scroll back and find a missing chat text or something easily.

Код:

new str[128];
format(str, sizeof(str), "[BS] {E82420} Player{E820CD} %s {E1E820}has {3E20E8}expressed {48E820}their {20E8E8}condolences {E8A220}for {E8207A}the {131414}banned {20E8AC}player", PlayerName);
SendClientMessageToAll(COLOR_DARKCORAL, str);

and I get :

It doesn't show the full message. If I change str[128] to str[256] It doesn't even show the message at all

PHP код:



new str[128];

PHP код:



new str[173];

Nope, as I said, changing the str length won't do anything, I need another way. When I do this and go in game and type the command nothing shows up, not even the timestamp, it's not even an empty string, it simply doesn't show

Just remove some color tags or send it in a new line.
