[Tutorial] Spawn Kill
#1

I don't care if anybody has this tutorial, but this tutorial is for newbies/lazies on having a hard time finding spawnkill.
This is my first tutorial, so don't flame me.

Anti-Spawn Kill
What is anti-spawn kill for?
• You will not have baserapers on your server.
• Spawnkillers have no match at all.

Let's get started.

Open pawno.exe and create a new scheme.
• Open pawno.exe >> CTRL + N

Find OnPlayerSpawn.
• CTRL + F >> Then type OnPlayerSpawn.

You will see this:
pawn Код:
public OnPlayerSpawn(playerid)
{
return 1;
}
Why on OnPlayerSpawn?
• This is a callback; which means when you spawn, the codes below will activate.
• Look at other callbacks and try to learn them.

Add this before return 1;
pawn Код:
SetPlayerHealth(playerid,99999);
SetTimer("spawnkill",10000,false);
What is SetPlayerHealth and SetTimer for?

SetPlayerHealth(playerid,99999);
• This will set the player health.

SetPlayerHealth(playerid,99999);
• This is to send the 'playerhealth' to the player(the player who had the SetPlayerHealth activated.)

SetPlayerHealth(playerid,99999);
• This is how much you will set the 'playerid's' health.
____________________________________
SetTimer("spawnkill",10000,false);
• This will start the timer.

SetTimer("spawnkill",10000,false);
• This is what you will call to your timer/this will be activated when the timer stops.(we will first use 'spawnkill')

SetTimer("spawnkill",10000,false);
• This sets how much time you will activate(spawnkilling time) the timer.(Note: It's m/s format, 1 sec = 1000 m/s)

SetTimer("spawnkill",10000,false);
• This mean if this timer will loop. 'true' if yes, 'false' if not.

Now we're going to define the 'spawnkill' that we've used earlier.
Place this outside of any callbacks; because we will create a new callback.

A callback is something with 'public'. Examples:
pawn Код:
public OnPlayerRequestClass(playerid, classid)
public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
public OnPlayerDisconnect(playerid, reason)
Place this forward anywhere on your script.(Best place to input the forward: under <a_samp>)
pawn Код:
forward spawnkill(playerid);
NOTE: You need a semi-colon at the end.

If you don't add that 'forward', this will show on your Pawn Compiler.
Код:
warning 235: public function lacks forward declaration (symbol "spawnkill")
Did you notice that other callbacks doesn't need forward? Examples of callbacks that doesn't need forward:
pawn Код:
public OnPlayerText(playerid, classid)
public OnPlayerCommandText(playerid)
public OnPlayerStateChange(playerid, reason)
It's all because of #include <a_samp>. Try creating a new scheme, and remove that include. After removing, compile it. You will recieve these errors:

Now it needs a forward, because inside <a_samp> has the forwards for these callbacks.

Let's go back to our topic. After putting the forward for the name 'spawnkill', we will put our new callback.
pawn Код:
public spawnkill(playerid)
NOTE: You do not need any semi-colon at the end, because callbacks doesn't need them.

Open brackets.
pawn Код:
public spawnkill(playerid)
{
We will now set the player's health back to its normal.
pawn Код:
SetPlayerHealth(playerid,100.0);
We will send the player for the spawn-kill is over.
pawn Код:
SendClientMessage(playerid,-1,"Anti-Spawn Kill is now over.");
NOTE: Color -1 is color white.

Close brackets. No need for return 1;
pawn Код:
}
You have finished your own Anti-Spawn kill script! But what to do next?

You may wish to design your own Anti-Spawn Kill.
Example 1:
pawn Код:
#define COLOR 0xFFFFFFFF //0xFFFFFFFF is color white. You could set your own color here.
forward spawnkill(playerid);
public spawnkill(playerid)
{
    SetPlayerHealth(playerid,100.0);
    SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR, "_________________________________");
    SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR, "");
    SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR, "Spawn-kill protection is now over.");
    SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR, "_________________________________");
}

public OnPlayerSpawn(playerid)
{
    SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR, "_________________________________");
    SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR, "");
    SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR, "You are now spawn-kill protected.");
    SendClientMessage(playerid, COLOR, "_________________________________");
    SetPlayerHealth(playerid,99999);
    SetTimer("spawnkill",10000,false);
    return 1;
}
Have fun, and happy scripting!

Stumbled across this tutorial and it's pretty good for anyone that starts up any server.
Explains functions & forwards pretty nice.

Also explaining errors and warnings that you might get is pretty usefull.

It's funny, because it doesn't work. Try it with more than 1 connected player and see how your code suddenly breaks.

@Vince, Sometimes people need to look at their code and test it before doing anything publicly with it. (And the pure fact it wouldn't work if you tested it or not.)

You had done a mistake there, and surely it isn't going to work.
It has something to do with SetTimer
*hint*

Besides that, I enjoyed the way you built the tutorial.

SetTimer("spawnkill",10000,false); should be SetTimerEx("spawnkill", 10000, false, "i", playerid); And you should kill the timer OnPlayerDisconnect.
