SetTimerEx is used to pass extra parameters through the callback. For example, your example
StartTime( playerid ) - With SetTimerEx, you can pass the 'playerid' parameter. The format would be as so:

pawn Код:

SetTimerEx( "StartTime", 1000, false, "i", playerid );
// 1000 = time
// false = don't repeat
// "i" = the format (integer for 'playerid')
// playerid = the parameter to pass

It's hard to explain, but once you understand it, it's nothing!
