Hello, i made a textdraw for under the money that the player have, the
textdraw displays how much dollar the player has in the bank. I have 2
questions now.
1. Under what shall i place it? (At the moment, i have it under OnPlayerUpdate((This makes the Game slow)).)
2. Why do i get this error for that the symbol is not used? :

Quote:

public OnPlayerUpdate(playerid) { new string14[100]; new bank = PlayerInfo[playerid][pBank]; format(string14,sizeof(string14),"$%d", bank); Textdraw4 = TextDrawCreate(498.000000, 97.000000, string14); TextDrawBackgroundColor(Textdraw4, 255); TextDrawFont(Textdraw4, 3); TextDrawLetterSize(Textdraw4, 0.589999, 2.299999); TextDrawColor(Textdraw4, -1); TextDrawSetOutline(Textdraw4, 1); TextDrawSetProportional(Textdraw4, 1); TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid, Textdraw4); return 1; }

Error :

I don't need to use it, i just want to display what should i do to lose that error?
I don't want to do anything i only want to display.

Nevermind i solved it, but i need question 1, where under is the best, better then OnPlayerUpdate

Not OnPlayerUpdate, it's called around 30-50 times/sec for each player, make a timer or something.

You need to use TextDrawSetString.

30/50? It's not that much lol. It's like 17/17 more, and yeah the times called depends.

Dosn't matter if it's 30 or 17.. It's per player, so it can cause lag if used too much anyway..

That code what you have is supposed to go under some public which gets calls at startup (yes, OnGameModeInit)

And update the textdraw each time you change the variable pBank, done (use TextDrawSetString)
Because it would be useless to update it if nothing happend

So it'll work if i make a forward UpdateTextDraws(); and then in that UpdateTextDraw()
I do TextDrawHideForPlayer(playerid, Textdraw;
TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid, Textdraw;
so it refreshes or is there other command for refreshing a textdraw?
