[Pawn] SetTimer looping through players with gettime() function

[unix]

1. first Checker call time - second Checker call time != 1.

2. i think the result will be changed as initial value of TickChecker[0].

gettime() | TickChecker[0]
[23:08:45] 1562681325 1562681327

[23:08:56] 1562681336 1562681332
[23:08:58] 1562681337 1562681332
[23:08:58] 1562681338 1562681332

this happens because next TickChecker[0]`s value is based on pre gettime(), and this not mean seconds

gettime(&hour=0,&minute=0,&second=0)



your function usage is wrong

No it is not wrong, if not using the syntax inside the function it returns the year,hour,month,second,day in seconds e.g 15206501548

Anyone?

You have a 0 element array. I'm surprised that code even compiles.

You have a 0 element array. ?I'm surprised that code even compiles.

I have tried without a 0 element array although, still having the same problem. :(

[Y_Less]

It could be crashing. It's hard to say without the rest of the code. Have you run this with crashdetect active?

This is how i would solve the problem.

I didn't try compiling it but it should work, let me know.

Code:

#define CHECKER_EXEC_INTERVAL_S? ? ?2

#define CHECKER_TIMER_INTERVAL_MS 1000



new nextCheckerTime;



public OnGameModeInit()

{

? ?SetTimer("Checker", CHECKER_TIMER_INTERVAL_MS, true);

}



forward Checker();

public Checker()

{

? ?prinft("[DEBUG] Checker(): gettime() = %i, nextCheckerTime = %i", gettime(), nextCheckerTime);



? ?if( gettime() >= nextCheckerTime )

? ?{

? ? ? ?print("[DEBUG] Checker(): gettime() >= nextCheckerTime");

? ? ? ?// do shit here..

? ? ? ?nextCheckerTime = gettime()  CHECKER_EXEC_INTERVAL_S ; // Apply the next time value to this variable. When gettime() exceeds or equals this value the code within these brackets will be called again.

? ?}

}
