I came across an issue where my textdraw id's where getting messed up and it was causing a bunch of problems, so recently I just started using Player Textdraws, I just had a question, whats the difference between:

pawn Код:

new PlayerText:Ok[MAX_PLAYERS];

Ok[playerid] = CreatePlayerTextDraw(playerid, 648.000000, 437.000000, "Box");

PlayerTextDrawShow(playerid, PlayerText:Ok[playerid]);

And:

pawn Код:

new PlayerText:Ok[MAX_PLAYERS];

Ok[playerid] = CreatePlayerTextDraw(playerid, 648.000000, 437.000000, "Box");

PlayerTextDrawShow(playerid, Ok[playerid]);

I'm getting really confused as if you HAVE TO include the "PlayerText:" tag everytime you gotta edit the textdraw, or does it even matter? And do you gotta also include the tag when you create the textdraw? Like:

pawn Код:

new PlayerText:Ok[MAX_PLAYERS];

PlayerText:Ok[playerid] = CreatePlayerTextDraw(playerid, 648.000000, 437.000000, "Box");

Will it fuck up everything if I don't include the "PlayerText:" tag on my player textdraws (when I edit them)?

You do not need to include PlayerText in front of every single statement. (If correct) That simply states that the variable that is created will be used for a Player Textdraw.

Ok so the only thing I should use the "PlayerText" tag will be on

pawn Код:

new PlayerText:Ok[MAX_PLAYERS];

?

Exactly. Same goes for things such as Floats, where you only use Float:variablename to define the float, and then use just variablename from then forward.

EDIT: Why are you using [MAX_PLAYERS] after the player textdraw? Seems rather useless, as you can have one player textdraw and then show/hide it to certain players.

Wow, really?

So I can do

pawn Код:

new PlayerText:Speedometer;

And I can set the string for each playerid?

It's a topic which has been discussed over and over again repeatedly but a while ago I think it was MP2 who confirmed that the variable needed to be a MAX_PLAYERS array.
