I just set a repeat timer OnPlayerDeath

pawn Код:

AfterDeathTimer[playerid] = repeat AfterDeathFunction(playerid);

The whole function:

pawn Код:

timer AfterDeathFunction[1000](playerid)
{
    new str[32];
    CountTime[playerid]--;
    format(str,sizeof(str),"Pasveiksite po %s",ConvertSecondsString(CountTime[playerid]));
    TextDrawSetString(HospitalDelay[playerid],str);
    TextDrawHideForPlayer(playerid,HospitalDelay[playerid]);
    TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid,HospitalDelay[playerid]);
    if(CountTime[playerid] <= 0)
    {
        printf("AfterDeathTimer still running with CountTime:%d",CountTime[playerid]);
        stop AfterDeathTimer[playerid];
        TextDrawHideForPlayer(playerid,HospitalDelay[playerid]);
        SendClientMessage(playerid,GREEN,"Jūs jau visiљkai sveikas, galite iљeiti iљ ligoninės!");
        SetPlayerHealth(playerid,100.0);
        set.IsAfterDeath[playerid] = false;
    }
    return 1;
}

Seems correct,doesn't it?

pawn Код:

[22:35:12] AfterDeathTimer still running with CountTime:-2836553[22:35:12] AfterDeathTimer still running with CountTime:-2836553

You see the print. There are 2836553 lines like that... But the stop code is just under the print line... so what's wrong?

This should work, you did not even stop the AfterDeathFunction that's why it keeps running you just stopped the AfterDeathTimer

pawn Код:

timer AfterDeathFunction[1000](playerid)
{
    new str[32];
    CountTime[playerid]--;
    format(str,sizeof(str),"Pasveiksite po %s",ConvertSecondsString(CountTime[playerid]));
    TextDrawSetString(HospitalDelay[playerid],str);
    TextDrawHideForPlayer(playerid,HospitalDelay[playerid]);
    TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid,HospitalDelay[playerid]);
    if(CountTime[playerid] <= 0)
    {
        printf("AfterDeathTimer still running with CountTime:%d",CountTime[playerid]);
        stop AfterDeathTimer(playerid);
        stop AfterDeathTimer(playerid);
        TextDrawHideForPlayer(playerid,HospitalDelay[playerid]);
        SendClientMessage(playerid,GREEN,"Jus jau visiškai sveikas, galite išeiti iš ligonines!");
        SetPlayerHealth(playerid,100.0);
        set.IsAfterDeath[playerid] = false;
    }
    return 1;
}

But "AfterDeathTimer" is an array

pawn Код:

stop AfterDeathTimer(playerid);

To be sure I did try it and got a compiler error.

I have no idea why you're using stop at AfterDeathTimer if you could do this

pawn Код:

AfterDeathTimer[playerid] = 0;

This should work

pawn Код:

AfterDeathTimer[playerid] = 0;

No, this doesn't work, because AfterDeathTimer has tag:

pawn Код:

Timer:AfterDeathTimer[MAX_PLAYERS]

And you use the variable as it were a function...This is an example from y_timers thread:

pawn Код:

main()
{
    repeat DelayedFunction(42);
    new
        Timer:x = repeat DelayedFunction(42);
    stop x;
}

And that is what I followed.

So basically the timer won't stop because of repeat & stop, the output will be this, give me a second, I'll try to re-write the code I have here because I I didn't have that much information.

pawn Код:

- Repeat
- Stop
- Repeat
- Stop
- Repeat
- Stop
// and so on, so it will not stop.

EDIT - After I got enough information, I could help you now :P

pawn Код:

//variable
new Timer:AfterDeathTimer[ MAX_PLAYERS ], CountTime[ MAX_PLAYERS ];

//Running the timer.
AfterDeathTimer[ playerid ] = repeat AfterDeathFunction(playerid);
//Asigning the seconds of the timer, example.
CountTime[ playerid ] = 60; //60 seconds for example.

timer AfterDeathFunction[1000](playerid)
{
    new str[32];
    
    if(CountTime[playerid] >= 1)
    {
        CountTime[playerid]--;
        format(str,sizeof(str),"Pasveiksite po %s",ConvertSecondsString(CountTime[playerid]));
        TextDrawSetString(HospitalDelay[playerid],str);
        
        TextDrawHideForPlayer(playerid,HospitalDelay[playerid]), TextDrawShowForPlayer(playerid,HospitalDelay[playerid]);
    }
    else if(CountTime[playerid] <= 0)
    {
        printf("AfterDeathTimer still running with CountTime:%d",CountTime[playerid]);

        stop AfterDeathTimer[playerid]; //Executing the timer.
        CountTime[playerid] = 0; //Executing and returning the array back to its default number ( 0 )
        
        TextDrawHideForPlayer(playerid,HospitalDelay[playerid]);
        
        SendClientMessage(playerid,GREEN,"Jus jau visiљkai sveikas, galite iљeiti iљ ligonines!");
        SetPlayerHealth(playerid, 100.0);
        
        set.IsAfterDeath[playerid] = false;
    }
    return 1;
}

The simple guide I created to help me, and it worked properly

pawn Код:

#include <a_samp>
#include <YSI\y_timers>

new
    CountDown = 0,
    Timer:Timer[MAX_PLAYERS]
;

main()
{
    new playerid = random(501);
    Timer[playerid] = repeat AfterDeathFunction(playerid);
    CountDown = 5;
}

timer AfterDeathFunction[1000](playerid)
{
    if(CountDown >= 1)
    {
        CountDown --;
        printf("%i", CountDown);
    }
    else if(CountDown <= 0)
    {
        CountDown = 0;
        stop Timer[playerid];
        printf("%i", CountDown);
    }
}

Thanks for the help but the problem was elsewhere(I think). As I mentioned the timer is started OnPlayerDeath. It never occured to me: what if someone dies in a hospital? Then a new timer starts running. But the new timer ID overrides the old one. And there it is, I have no way to stop the timer that was started first.

But I'm still grateful for your time
