It is NOT using processes as you seem to think, it is just a function in the server called in EXACTLY the same way as you are doing, to check the elapsed time and fire off PAWN functions as appropriate. 3) This doesn't support timers with sub-second fractions. When used properly there is nothing at all wrong with using SA:MP timers - they were designed to have many spawned, plus they keep code neat and separated, this method doesn't.

I also don't see the big 'hype' about 'timers are bad, don't use them' I've used timers quite alot, and I never had any lagg at all, that includes a timer that is called every second.

But, anyways, nice tutorial Lenny, I did learn something from it, and I am sure some more people will.
