Why sleep fuction has been broken by SA:MP TEAM ?

What are you talking about!? I never saw any Sleep function

[Correlli]

I don't think there was a sleep function in SA-MP.

Newbies don't know.
It's a diffecoult question. I often see people use the sleep function, though many people don't even know it.
Abit info if I remember it well:
sleep - keyword sleep.
Sleep is like timer that works for main() only.

pawn Код:

print("Now it's starting to \"sleep\"");
sleep(10000);
print("10 seconds passed of \"sleep\"");

I guess you could understand it alone, it's very simple to use. Everyone can understand it.

I didn't know that it got fucked up too in 0.2X, though I never meet someone that used this

Like I said in my first reply - This function can be used ONLY in main().
