What is this include?

This include is the LCI Achievements System, developed by the Lawedan Software Development Team for
Lawedan Roleplay, which was released for the San Andreas Multiplayer Community.
This simple, yet useful, project combines textdraws and stocks to create a Achievements System.

This include was originally developed by Magnus Burton (Flyfishes), one of the PAWN Developers for our project, Lawedan Roleplay, but later, we think it's a good contribution to release it. (Take time to read, he is our PAWN developer, therefore, yes, before you reply, we have permission to release this)

We believe this is a great way to contribute to beginner and advanced PAWN developers, as this is a great tool for any kind of server.

How can this be useful?

This simple include can be used in any kind of server.
We can use the example of a deathmatch server, you can recieve achievements like 'First Kill!', '100 Kills!', 'My first house', and several other cases. Roleplay servers, you can have achievements like 'Muderer!', 'Arrested', 'Bad Guy', and several other cases. And the list applies to a long list of different types of gamemodes.


Installation

Installing this include is very simple.
You can download it from pastebin. Place it at the pawno>includes folder.

Then, on your gamemode / filterscript, add this at the top:

pawn Код:

#include <achievements>

And OnGameModeInit:

pawn Код:

public OnGameModeInit()
{
        achievements_OnGameModeInit();
}

Then, you are ready to start adding achievements!

So how does this work?

We have made this as simple as possible, therefore, our current function(s) include:

pawn Код:

/*
ShowPlayerAchievement(playerid, short[], title[], text[], fadeout);
-playerid: The playerid to show the achievement to.
-short[]: Under construction
-title[]: The title of the achievement
-text[]: The content of the achievement
-fadeout: (milliseconds) how long will the timer stay on the screen?
*/
ShowPlayerAchievement(playerid, short[], title[], text[], fadeout);
/*
SetAchievementColor(box, color);
:Sets the achievement color - YOU NEED TO USE IT >AFTER< ShowPlayerAchievement!
-box: 0 Description Box and 1 New Achievement Box.
*/
native SetAchievementColor(box, color);

Our quick commands
When I'm about to use a include, the first thing I want to do is check how it works, I usually use a simple command to do this.
So here we have the quick commands, developed using ZCMD, by Hal (one of our developers).
(Thanks to Hal)

pawn Код:

CMD:ach1(playerid, params[])
{
    //ShowPlayerAchievement(playerid, title[], text[], fadeout)
    ShowPlayerAchievement(playerid, "Your first achievement!", "Congrats, you have just done your first achievement!", 5000);
    return 1;
}
    
CMD:ach2(playerid, params[])
{
    //ShowPlayerAchievement(playerid, title[], text[], fadeout)
    ShowPlayerAchievement(playerid, "You have killed someone!", "Congrats, you have just killed someone! Be proud!", 5000);
    return 1;
}
    
CMD:ach3(playerid, params[])
{
    //ShowPlayerAchievement(playerid, title[], text[], fadeout)
    ShowPlayerAchievement(playerid, "Your first house!", "You have just bought a house, congrats! Don't forget to clean your room!", 5000);
    return 1;
}
