How to call a global timer and to randomize server side moneys (points) - wallen - 06.02.2018

OnPlayerDeath Callback

PHP код:



    EARNS[playerid] = TextDrawCreate(304.000000, 116.000000, "+ points");

    TextDrawBackgroundColor(EARNS[playerid], 255);

    TextDrawFont(EARNS[playerid], 2);

    TextDrawLetterSize(EARNS[playerid], 0.520000, 2.200000);

    TextDrawColor(EARNS[playerid], 227526655);

    TextDrawSetOutline(EARNS[playerid], 0);

    TextDrawSetProportional(EARNS[playerid], 1);

    TextDrawSetShadow(EARNS[playerid], 1);

PHP код:



    // If player kills someone he will be awarded with +1 point level and +50 respect

    new killedwho[MAX_PLAYERS];

    GetPlayerName(playerid,killedwho,sizeof(killedwho)); // Killer's name

    format(iString, sizeof iString, "{9FF781}* You killed %s and took +1 points and +50 respect", killedwho);

    SendClientMessage(killerid, -1, iString);

    format(iString, sizeof iString, "{D8D8D8}(INFO) Respect: %i", pInfo[killerid][Respect]); 

    SendClientMessage(killerid, -1, iString);

    TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid, EARNS[playerid]); <--- thats the points TD

    SetTimer("HideTextdraw", 5000, false);

    pInfo[killerid][Points] += 1;

    pInfo[killerid][Respect] += 50;

    SetPlayerScore(killerid, GetPlayerScore(killerid) + 15);

    pInfo[killerid][Score] += 15;

    GameTextForPlayer(killerid,"~y~+15", 400,4);

timer

PHP код:



forward HideTextdraw(playerid);

public HideTextdraw(playerid)

{

    TextDrawHideForPlayer(playerid, EARNS[playerid]);

}

Ok so, how to make a global timer that will disappear this EARNS[playerid] Textdraw for everyone? just noticed that the player with id 0 disappears but the id 1 doesnt. Also how do i make randomized points score like 6,10,14,7,9 etc..? I guess that i need to create some cases for do that. Some help how to write the code?

First of all, you are using a global textdraw and value will change for everybody; I don't know if that was your intention in first place, just letting you know.

Secondly, use SetTimerEx and forward the player id through it.

PHP код:



SetTimerEx("HideTextdraw", 5000, false, "i", playerid);

You should be fine that way.

EDIT: about the random function; just search the forums before asking.

PHP код:



stock randomEx(min, max)

{    

    //Credits to ******    

    new rand = random(max-min)+min;    

    return rand;

}


// usage


new _randVal = randomEx(5, 10); // min value is 5, max is 10; assigned to _randVal

Hey @Private2000, in what way or where would the "randomEx" be used?
or this:

Код:

stock minrand (min, max) // By Alex "******" Cole
{
return random (max - min) + min;
}

Place that anywhere in the script, just outside a function. Usage is already in the example I posted above. You can use it anywhere you want.
