I added the following code by myself to be able to write timed messages without needing many public timers....

Its coded this way (TimerMsg gets called first):

Код:

public TimerMsg(playerid,string[],color,time,param)
{
	SetTimerEx("TimedMessage",time,0,"isii",playerid,string,color,param);
	return 1;
}

public TimedMessage(playerid,string[],color,param) //einfacher als diese dummen Timer, die sich ggseitig aufrufen...
{
	SendClientMessage(playerid,color,string);
	switch(param) //um auch custom aktionen auszufьhren
	{
//   case 0: if param isnt needed
	  case 1: //action
	  case 2: //action
		case 3: //action
		case 4: //action
	}
	return 1;
}

Now the messages doesnt gets shown, either the actions are done....

Can you pls tell me the wrong part of the script ?

Cheers,
Trooper

Nothing is wrong here. Strings just don't work in timers...

Any other method ?

They do work but are bugged, but as said in one recent post of me, you fix it but using format().

pawn Код:

public TimedMessage(playerid,string[],color,param) //einfacher als diese dummen Timer, die sich ggseitig aufrufen...
{
  new repaired_string[128];
  format(repaired_string, sizeof repaired_string, string);
  SendClientMessage(playerid,color,repaired_string);

Thanks.
But there are several issues with this function.

To not have to export a string, i worked on it.

Now i call the functions like this:

Код:

    		SetTimerEx("TimedMsg",1500,0,"iii",playerid,1,1); //first = action, 2nd = message
		  SetTimerEx("TimedMsg",3000,0,"iii",playerid,0,2);
		  SetTimerEx("TimedMsg",4500,0,"iii",playerid,0,3);
		  SetTimerEx("TimedMsg",6000,0,"iii",playerid,2,4);
		  SetTimerEx("TimedMsg",7500,0,"iii",playerid,0,5);
		  SetTimerEx("TimedMsg",9000,0,"iii",playerid,0,6);
		  SetTimerEx("TimedMsg",10500,0,"iii",playerid,3,7);
      SetTimerEx("TimedMsg",12000,0,"iii",playerid,2,8);
		  SetTimerEx("TimedMsg",13500,0,"iii",playerid,0,9);
		  SetTimerEx("TimedMsg",15000,0,"iii",playerid,2,10);
		  SetTimerEx("TimedMsg",17000,0,"iii",playerid,0,11);
		  SetTimerEx("TimedMsg",17000,0,"iii",playerid,4,12);

with

Код:

public TimedMessage(playerid,param1,param2) 
{
	printf("TimedMessage:%d,%d,%d",playerid,param1,param2);
  new formatmsg[128];
	switch(param2)
	{
	  case 1:format(formatmsg,128,//msg
	  case 2:format(formatmsg,128,//msg
		case 3:format(formatmsg,128,//msg
		case 4:format(formatmsg,128,//msg
		case 5:format(formatmsg,128,//msg
		case 6:format(formatmsg,128,//msg
		case 7:format(formatmsg,128,//msg
		case 8:format(formatmsg,128,//msg
		case 9:format(formatmsg,128,//msg
		case 10:format(formatmsg,128,//msg
		case 11:format(formatmsg,128,//msg
		case 12:format(formatmsg,128,//msg
	}
	SendClientMessage(playerid,COLOR_ORANGE,formatmsg);
	switch(param1) 
	{
	  case 1: ApplyAnimation(playerid,"ped","phone_in",4,0,0,0,1,0);
	  case 2: ApplyAnimation(playerid,"ped","phone_talk",4,0,0,0,1,0);
		case 3: ConnectNPC("miss1_agent","miss1_agent");
		case 4:
		{
		  //some actions
		}
	}
	return 1;
}

The Problem is:
The "printf" at the beginning gets called NEVER !
Even i wait for 2 minutes, nothing appears....
ANy suggestions, ideas ?

You don't call the right function.

Also i've just realized that SetTimerEx is bugged with strings if there is already another SetTimerEx running, they become confused...Anyway, i suggest you use the good old SetTimer, what you did here with all those timers is really ugly. There are probably betters ways of doing what you want.

I moreless think you haven`t looked the code :P
I use no strings....

And i use the good oldd SetTimer
