uMessageBox 2.2
Updated: 2012.07.15

About

Its an include used for outputting some information for user in a message box style. It also can be used as an alert box. Its very easy to use and easy to modify to fit your needs. Things like box width, height, color, x or y location are customisable. You dont need to create multiple textdraws anymore! Its easy as it looks like!

NOTE: You dont need to worry about deleting, creating anything upon player connect or disconnect! This is managed automatically using ALS hooking.

Functions

pawn Code:

/*
       This function shows the message box for the specified player.
       You can also set the sound which will be played upon popup.
*/
ShowPlayerMessageBox( playerid, title[], content[], sound = 0, timeout = DEFAULT_TIMEOUT )

/*
       This function instantly hides the messagebox.
*/
HidePlayerMessageBox( playerid )

/*
       Updates the current active messagebox.
       It also can reset the timeout with a new one if the last param is specified.
*/
UpdatePlayerMessageBox( playerid, title[] = "", content[] = "", timeout = 0 )

Why do you destroy it each time it has been viewed?
That could be a problem if the server has many textdraws. Because TextdrawDestroy could also destroy other textdraws if the textdraw isn't found by some reason or it will create 2 textdraws and one will be undeletable.
Just use TextDrawSetString instead.

The ID of the textdraw is always set and hold in a variable. Destroying it, because functions uMsgBox_Show creates it, so uMsgBox_Destroy simply destroys it. I dont think it should be bugging. Textdraws usually bug because of inordinate scripting. Here, everything is done precisely. Just dont forget to uMsgBox_Destroy when player disconnects.

Bump.
