As i see that the Post your interesting/weird... commands is flooded with not just commands,
but other snippets that go in different areas of the SA:MP Scripts, i decided to make this
topic with ******' approval for people to post there useful, weird, or interesting snippets that not just
go into the OnPlayerCommandText Area but other areas of the SA:MP scripts. Ill start it out.

Connect icon in DeathStats from ******

pawn Code:

public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
   SendDeathMessage(playerid, INVALID_PLAYER_ID, 200);
   return 1;
}

Disconnect icon in DeathStats from ******

pawn Code:

public OnPlayerDisconnect(playerid)
{
  SendDeathMessage(INVALID_PLAYER_ID, playerid, 201);
}

Admin Lock

pawn Code:

new aVehicle; //Above Main

pawn Code:

//gamemodeinit
aVehicle = AddStaticVehicle(598,2256.0903,2477.0115,10.5668,178.5022,0,1); //gamemodeinit

pawn Code:

public AdminLock(playerid) //Anywhere in script
{
 if(IsPlayerConnected(playerid))
 {
   if(IsPlayerAdmin(playerid))
   {
    SetVehicleParamsForPlayer(aVehicle, playerid,0,0);
   }
   else
   {
    SetVehicleParamsForPlayer(aVehicle, playerid,0,1);
   }
 }
}

pawn Code:

public OnPlayerSpawn(playerid)
{
   AdminLock(playerid);
   return 1;
}

pawn Code:

AddStaticVehicleEx(598,2256.0903,2477.0115,10.5668,178.5022,0,1,never);

Well this is a small thing but i find it a bit more efficient,

instead of using for(new i=0;i<MAX_PLAYERS

I use this:

Code:

new maxplayers; //Global Variable

public OnPlayerConnect(playerid){
	if(playerid > maxplayers-1) maxplayers = playerid+1; //Getting the maximum playerid
}

public OnPlayerDisconnect(playerid){
	if(playerid == maxplayers+1) for(new i=0;i<maxplayers;i++) if(IsPlayerConnected(i)) maxplayers = i+1; //Getting the minimum playerid
}

for(new i=0;i<maxplayers;i++) //the new more efficient loop

That won't work, you're assuming that all players are consecutive, which is rarely the case, you could have 10 players max, but only players 1, 4, 7 and 9 connected, which would make the max thing 9, saving almost nothing, and you would still need to check for connection.

No I'm not assuming there consecutive, check my code again, i find the highest playerid according to OnPlayerConnect and make the max loop that, then when a player disconnects i reevaluate the highest playerid

since basically all MAX_PLAYERS loops try to loop according to playerids you only need the highest one, hence this is more efficient

ok about the admin vehcile's
i added 13 admin vehicle's and i can open them when im not admin.. now i realized that i had to add this, before it would work:

Code:

AddStaticVehicleEx(425,2137.0598,1729.9246,20.5675,59.3952,0,1,never);
    AddStaticVehicleEx(522,2164.1125,1720.9868,20.1695,161.4324,0,1,never);
	AddStaticVehicleEx(522,2168.9771,1719.4484,19.9998,169.0915,0,1,never);
	AddStaticVehicleEx(522,2174.8657,1718.4332,20.1868,165.7749,0,1,never);
	AddStaticVehicleEx(522,2179.6699,1717.1212,19.9994,166.9654,0,1,never);
	AddStaticVehicleEx(444,2208.9463,1654.0419,20.0004,2.0738,0,1,never);
	AddStaticVehicleEx(556,2184.9636,1654.0623,20.0956,2.9973,0,1,never);
	AddStaticVehicleEx(425,2201.3828,1716.8575,34.2190,88.4603,0,1,never);
	AddStaticVehicleEx(520,2141.1396,1637.6151,20.1024,120.4169,0,1,never);
	AddStaticVehicleEx(541,2175.4431,1613.0690,20.0886,182.6934,0,1,never);
	AddStaticVehicleEx(411,2168.8147,1614.7198,20.0885,181.9470,0,1,never);
	AddStaticVehicleEx(451,2163.6968,1613.2709,20.0878,175.1219,0,1,never);
	AddStaticVehicleEx(447,2141.5942,1591.2502,31.6095,124.6433,0,1,never);

And get this error:

Code:

(19229) : error 021: symbol already defined: "AddStaticVehicleEx"

I searched thru the forums how i could fix this error but found nothing.

only 1 vehicle can be locked with the lock i posted
you need maxvehicles for all of them to be unlocked

Everybody needs sleep Code

pawn Code:

enum pInfo
{
    Sleeping,
    Awake,
    Tired
}
new Info[MAX_PLAYERS][pInfo];

pawn Code:

SetTimer("Motels",5000,1);
SetTimer("SleepTime",300000,1);

pawn Code:

    for(new i=0; i<MAX_PLAYERS; i++)
    {
      SendClientMessage(i,COLOR_GREY,"* You are starting to feel sleep *");
        SendClientMessage(i,COLOR_GREY,"* Go to the nearest /hotel and get a rest *");
        Info[i] [Tired] = 1;
        Info[i] [Awake] = 0;
        Info[i] [Sleeping] = 0;
    }
}

pawn Code:

public Motels()
{
    for(new i=0; i<MAX_PLAYERS; i++)
    {
      if(IsPlayerInCube(i,2236,-1076,1040,2245,-1066,1100))
      {
        if(Info[i][Tired] == 1)
        {
                GameTextForPlayer(i,"~w~Please wait while your energy is ~b~restored",3000,3);
                Info[i] [Tired] = 0;
                Info[i] [Sleeping] = 1;
                Info[i] [Awake] = 0;
                TogglePlayerControllable(i,0);
        }
        if(Info[i] [Awake] == 1)
        {
                GameTextForPlayer(i,"~w~You ~g~don't ~w~need to rest",2000,3);
        }
        if(Info[i] [Sleeping] == 1)

                Info[i] [Awake] = 1;
                Info[i] [Tired] = 0;
                Info[i] [Sleeping] = 0;

                Info[i] [Awake] = 0;

        {
                GameTextForPlayer(i,"~w~You ~g~don't ~w~need to rest",2000,3);
        }
        if(Info[i] [Sleeping] == 1)
        {
                Info[i] [Awake] = 1;
                Info[i] [Tired] = 0;
                Info[i] [Sleeping] = 0;
                GameTextForPlayer(i,"~w~Rise and Shine",2000,3);
                TogglePlayerControllable(i,1);
        }
      }
    }
  return 1;
}

Why not simply:

pawn Code:

if ( IsPlayerInCube(i,2236,-1076,1040,2245,-1066,1100) || IsPlayerInCube(i,2202,-1070,1000,2211,-1078,1100) )

So you can delete half of the timer func. Also check if they are connected before doing anything.

[Pixels^]

I made it a long time ago so i didn't know about that then.

[-Sneaky-]

ok pixels, how can i make all vehicles unlocked for admin and locked for normal players then?
i really dont know how

[Pixels^]

Something like this

pawn Code:

#define MAX_VEHICLES 255 //amount of cars in script
new aVehicle[MAX_VEHICLES] //define of aVehicle

pawn Code:

new never = 1000000;
    aVehicle[1] = AddStaticVehicleEx(522,2164.1125,1720.9868,20.1695,161.4324,0,1,never);
    aVehicle[2] = AddStaticVehicleEx(522,2168.9771,1719.4484,19.9998,169.0915,0,1,never);

pawn Code:

public AdminLock(playerid) //Anywhere in script
{
  if(IsPlayerConnected(playerid))
  {
   if(IsPlayerAdmin(playerid))
   {
     SetVehicleParamsForPlayer(aVehicle[MAX_VEHICLES], playerid,0,0);
   }
   else
   {
     SetVehicleParamsForPlayer(aVehicle[MAX_VEHICLES], playerid,0,1);
   }
  }
}

Admin Area

pawn Code:

// Set the timer triggering the function which checks if players are in the 'admin' area

SetTimer("AreaCheck", 1000, 1);

// The function

AreaCheck()
{
    for(new i=0; i<MAX_PLAYERS; i++ ) {
        if(IsPlayerConnected(i) && IsPlayerInArea(i, minx, maxx, miny, maxy) && !IsPlayerAdmin(i)) // CHECK: If the player is a admin, if the player is in the area
        { // He's not.
            SendClientMessage(i, YOURCOLOR, "You are not allowed to enter the ADMIN area.");
            /* Do with him whatever
                you want */
        }
    }
}

// ISPIA Function

IsPlayerInArea(playerid, Float:minx, Float:maxx, Float:miny, Float:maxy)
{
new Float:x, Float:y, Float:z;
GetPlayerPos(playerid, x, y, z);
if (x > minx && x < maxx && y > miny && y < maxy) return 1;
return 0;
}

Since it's something most newb scripters want to have, and "cant" find it, i'll post a very basic one. Hopefully this will stop some of the 'I cant find a working code' bs.

[boylett]

if(IsPlayerConnected(i) && IsPlayerInArea(i, minx, maxx, miny, maxy) && !IsPlayerAdmin(i))

[[QB]Flame^]

I really dont see the use of that in this type of function :/ ..

[boylett]

pawn Code:

SendClientMessage(i, YOURCOLOR, "You are not allowed to enter the ADMIN area.");

What if they leave while in the admin area?

Dunno what the function IsPlayerInArea does when you try to check for a playerid that is not connected.... Since that's what's gonna happen sooner or later: you will not always have a full 100 player load on your server.

Added OnPlayerConnect for Flame^'s Snippet.

              SendClientMessage(i, YOURCOLOR, "You are not allowed to enter the ADMIN area.");

Could you give an example of how it could be used? For instance in a str2bin(string[])? I think this could be really useful
