stock is a function, it can have "stock" infront of the function's name and it can to not have it.

pawn Код:
stock playerid(playerid)
  return playerid;

//or
player(playerid)
  return playerid;
Not hard to uynderstand, also I suggest you to read wiki. It explains everything better than anyone else and shows examples.

The only difference in the two is that the second one will give a warning if not used. The first one just is ignored if unused.

So for example, see:
pawn Код:
stock GivePlayerHealth(playerid, Float:health)
{
  new Float:pHealth;
  GetPlayerHealth(playerid, pHealth);
  SetPlayerHealth(playerid, pHealth + health);
}
How can you apply this command?

Re: haw to use stock oO - MenaceX^ - 10.05.2009

Actualy I think a better explaination of stock is:

If you want to do a command like checking if a player exists in a code (mysql scripting)
instead of making your code like:
pawn Код:
///command.
format(string,sizeof(string),"SELECT * FROM `table` WHERE name='%s'",randomname);
samp_mysql_query(string);
samp_mysql_store_result(); // etc etc.
You can do it in a stock so you do it like
pawn Код:
///command
if(CheckPlayerExistant(variable))
{
  //code
  //code
  //code
}
else return SendClientMessage(playerid,color,"player does not exists");
I do everything in stocks also.

You can do it like
pawn Код:
if(!strcmp(cmdtext,"/givehealth",true))
  return GiveHealth(playerid,50);
Will get your current health and will add 50.

Uhm no-one who has posted in this topic actually knows what stock is... it can be used for the examples you have posted yes but that is not its main function. Look it up in pawn-lang.pdf.

Re: haw to use stock oO - Weirdosport - 10.05.2009

I posted links to my wikipedia article in which I explain briefly what it says in the pawn lang.pdf

A stock is a function that you can have in a script, but which is only compiled if you use it. For example if I put the (godforsaken) strtok stock in my script and never used it (thank god) it wouldn't be included in the compiled .amx... For more information go to the wikipedia article, or do as the previous posted told you to do...
