Updating a players pos with timer
#1

Okay, so I want to make a /take command for a restrained player, and every 100-500ms it will set the players pos to the police officer using /take...

and i get him to teleport, but the timer doesn't keep repeating the teleport function but repeats the command if that makes sense... anyone have any idea of how i can do this, code with comments is good, but if you tell me everything i need to know to make it, that's great.

Thanks in advance.

or

and

look at the "repeat" parameter, set it to true.

then later on kill the timer so it won't go on indefinitely.

Also don't forget to set a variable to the timer for properly using KillTimer

For example

PHP код:

new ptimer; // ptimer like pos timer

public UpdatePlayerPos(playerid)
{
    new 
Float:x, Float:y, Float:z;
    
GetPlayerPos(playerid, x, y, z);
    
// Don't know what you wanna do, so i'll use it with SetPlayerCheckpoint
    
for(new p = 0; p < MAX_PLAYERS;p++)
    {
        if(
p == playerid) continue;
        else return 
SetPlayerCheckpoint(i, x, y, z, 5.0);
    }
// In ur command

ptimer = SetTimerEx("UpdatePlayerPos", 500, true, "d", playerid);

// In the command to stop

if(strcmp(cmdtext, "/stoptimer", true) == 0)
{
     
KillTimer(ptimer);
     print(
"Timer killed");
     return 
1;
}
