Thread: Blank-Mode

Hello, I'm releasing this Blank mode of mine, I can't test it though I'd be glad if someone could for me.

Anyway, this gamemode is to show you how certain things are created, variables and stuff, basically a general concept of how pawn scripts can be created. I couldn't do what I really wished to do since there are hardly any functions, dammit, I may not have updated.

I've added a coin system (Yes I know, it's EXTREMELY easy!) Though thats ment to show you the concept of creating variables and subtracting them, feel free to point out suggestions! I can try to add them. The includes I am using are the fairly old ones (last updated the includes was in JUNE)

Removed some variables, found them worthless and just byte wasting, better off editing it rather than making a new string to input data inside.

Loops are also included in the script, some usages on reseting a variable is there.

Code C++:

Indention may seem awful, nothing I can do. SMF doesn't auto Intend code.

I modified not alot, but most of it.

The coin system will not work!!! If you want it to work, you may need to wait for Recycler to create more server functions and update the MP. This is not a huge gamemode, this is just to get some general knowledge to creating a gamemode.

Constructive Criticizem allowed.

Somethings wrong? Post a reply, heads up and have a great day guys.

PS: Heads up to people wanting to grab a compiler and a server developing kit, check the useful functions section!

"Theres no kick function!!!" made me laugh, good work Lorenc.

Pretty useless, creating variables there always 0. Also resetting it on main() makes no sense, you should reset em (Money[playerid]) on OnPlayerJoin(playerid). BTW a system saving the money for each player (filefunctions are pawn natives arent they?) would be nice

They can return something other than null, depending on how much data is contained inside "Money"; If it exceeds '0xFF' (255) then it'll return either '-1' or '0xFFFF'... I may of forgot to reset it however, I also forgot to mention that, this variable uses a 8 bit array, max is number you can hold is '0xFF', without the char array, I think it's something like '0xFFFFFF', one large int

It's been a while since this has been updated, since then, there was nothing special to do with vault-tec. I see that there is changes and I could script something more powerful then this... I'll make a file writer for the community sometime
