Hello, I got a little weird problem/bug

I'm making a minigame, and now I'm busy with the 'stock LeaveGame' function.

Here's the code:

pawn Код:

stock LeaveCaveGame(playerid)
{
    SInfo[CaveCount] --;
    PInfo[playerid][CaveGame] = 0;
    
    printf("%d leavecavegame called", SInfo[CaveCount]);
    
    if(SInfo[CaveCount] == 0)
    {
        new string [256], PlayerName[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
        GetPlayerName(playerid, PlayerName,sizeof PlayerName);
        format (string, sizeof string, "[CAVE]The Game has ended, %s stayed alive for %s, server record: lala, typer /cave to try it yourself", PlayerName, ReturnSToM(SInfo[CaveUpdateCount]));
        SendClientMessageToAll(COLOR_ORANGE, string);
        SendClientMessage(playerid,COLOR_ORANGE ,"[CAVE]You won in blabla, your best: blabla");
        
        SInfo[CaveRunning] = 0;
        SInfo[CaveJoining] = 0;
        
        KillTimer(SInfo[CaveUpdateTimer]);
    }
    
    else if(SInfo[CaveCount] > 0)
    {
        SendClientMessage(playerid,COLOR_ORANGE ,"[CAVE]... has dropped out blabla");
    }
    return 1;
}

and this:

pawn Код:

LeaveCaveGame(playerid);//OnPlayerDeath

Well, so I go ingame, in the game, die, and then the function should be called, so normally it should give me the messages

pawn Код:

SendClientMessageToAll(COLOR_ORANGE, string);
        SendClientMessage(playerid,COLOR_ORANGE ,"[CAVE]You won in blabla, your best: blabla");

But it doesn't do that... So I thought, okay there's something wrong with:

pawn Код:

SInfo[CaveCount]

But when I added the print line, and I looked in the server log I saw that the array was 0, however the messages weren't called...

Do you know what could be wrong?
Thanks in advance

I'm thinking my OnPlayerDeath is bugged, is that possible?

Did it print "0 leavecavegame called" but the message "[CAVE]You won in blabla, your best: blabla" did not appear?

Because it should.

EDIT: if you're using killerid at all, check if the killer is not INVALID_PLAYER_ID. I used to have a similar problem with a dueling system and it was causing OnPlayerDeath not being called at all.

Use crashdetect, it's really useful.

And/or a debug:

pawn Код:

public OnPlayerDeath( playerid, killerid, reason )
{
    printf( "DEBUG: OnPlayerDeath -> %d | %d | %d", playerid, killerid, reason );
    return 1;
}

Yeah I had a look at the wiki for OnPlayerDeath, and saw that I've been using killerid wrong, -> that caused the bug.

However, when I die now I get frozen and my skin gets reset?

pawn Код:

public OnPlayerDeath(playerid, killerid, reason)
{
    if(killerid != INVALID_PLAYER_ID)
    {
        PInfo[killerid][Kills] ++;
        SendDeathMessage(killerid, playerid, reason);
    }

    SetPlayerSkin(playerid, PInfo[playerid][Skin]);
    PInfo[playerid][Deaths] ++;
    
    if(PInfo[playerid][VortexJump] == 1) LeaveVortexGame(playerid);
    if(PInfo[playerid][CaveGame] == 1) LeaveCaveGame(playerid);
    if(PInfo[playerid][Racing] != -1) LeaveRace(playerid, PInfo[playerid][Racing]);
    
    return 1;
}

?

Remove this line:

pawn Код:

SetPlayerSkin(playerid, PInfo[playerid][Skin]);

Setting the skin when a player dies is pointless.

Set the skin in OnPlayerSpawn instead.

Plus, use:

pawn Код:

SendDeathMessage(killerid, playerid, reason);

on top of the OnPlayerDeath callback, not inside the if statement about the killerid. If a player dies by themselves, the icon won't be shown if the killerid is not valid.
