Ok i have been looking into strange things on a modified version of SATDM~RP.:V9,anyways to the point i have 29 timers running in this gamemode(please note this is less than the orignal).

My question's are could these timers,cause overcpu usage on the server(i added another timer and bingo i got e-mails )
Make other things like player files or vehicle files,being corrupted ?

Anyways to a fix,i was wondering if i could cut all these timers down to say 3 or 4 timers and would this help,but still keeping everything running that is needed,say 29 things that need timers,confused so am i .

or a simple way say 4 timers 1 at 5 mins,1 at 10mins and so on and so on.then just use timer 1 for saving files,timer 2 for jail,unjail,wanted and so on.....

you get the drift,hope you do because now im lost

Or any other idea's would be appreciated

[Lookin]

ok try put for example all that run at 10 min into one section like say jail, random messages,weather and try make it all one function and try that
also make sure you forward the functions for example on my lookinsengine i did forward Starting(playerid); then did public Starting(playerid)

i hope i helped =D

Ok lookin cheers and as i said it looks like no one else will help so i will just go it alone

[Lookin]

ok but let me know if my ideas on it works

[[HiC]TheKiller]

Depends what the timers do and how often they do it. Make sure to use things like foreach if you are doing large loops.

yeah ive always stayed with the default amount of timers as everyone i know who has played with timers has had problems so i chose not to go there

I suggest you post all timers here, the delay, and what they do.

Best idea is to stick with one 1000ms timer for everything - far better to put all the code in one loop rather than 20 or so. If you need things to count down (jail, etc), just use a variable - the 4 bytes per player is worth the advantage over having a million timers running - which WILL cause huge lag problems.

Sorry people i have been at work so i dont get much time to come back and answer,same goes for my scripting,by the time i get back to it i have forgotten more than i learnt

lol only a few then i never looked before how many there are,but still my first question was could these timers cause cpu overload and corrupt "say user files "

cheers in advance as i will be back at work
