Hey guys,
Im working on a damage display. I made a textdraw which shows how much dmg the person makes. After 2 seconds, the textdraw is set to "hide". The problem is, the "sleep" function which i use, does lag the script sometimes.

Is there any other way to make a sleep or a delay for the text to hide?

How should i do that? oO
I mean yeah i can set a timer and so on, but i cant just port my textdraw and IDs to the timer function... That would be a mess

As the above person gave you a pair of links you could use those links and learn how to use a timer. You can use such timers for delaying the textdraw if you want.

i accually know howto use them.... My problem is, i would have some trouble porting the data from my OnPlayerGiveDamage to my timer function.

PHP код:

here an example:
public OnPlayerGiveDamagewhateva(playerid, issuerid, Float: amount)
{
    if(IsPlayerConnected(playerid))
    {
        new Text:Textdraw0, string[64];
        format(string, sizeof(string), "%.0f dmg", amount);
        Textdraw0 = TextDrawCreate(x,y,string);
        TextDrawShowForPlayer(issuerid,Textdraw0);
    }return 1;
} 


If i would make a timer. How should i use TextDrawHideForPlayer? I cant just write TextDrawHideForPlayer(issuerid,Textdraw0), because id have to make a new textdraw, which wouldnt delete the one from Givedamage...

pawn Код:

SetTimerEx("hidetd", timehere, 0, "i", issuerid);

Might want to do the new Text:Textdraw0; globally though.
