Run Command Ever 30 Seconds

mofomikeman · **Author**

How would I make my server run a simple command (sv_stepsize 999999) every thirty seconds (as something keeps changing it, not an admin, cause i took all admin off and set it and something changes it at round start, none of my plugins, stopped them all). and somethings it just does sv_stepsize 18 randomly... just, answer the first question.

you need to use set_task or you can hook the command that does the sv_stepsize

Woah... uhh, can you put that in english?

The following code checks every 30 seconds if sv_stepsize was changed.
if it was changed then it is set to 18 in this example

Code:

#include <amxmodx>

#define sv_stepsize 18 // here you can adjust stepsize
new Float:seconds=30.0 // here you can change the seconds

public plugin_init(){
    register_plugin("Timer","0.1","KoST")
    //set_task(seconds,"MyTimer") [edit]
    set_task(seconds,"MyTimer",0,"",0,"b")
}

public MyTimer(){
    new step_size=get_cvar_num("sv_stepsize") 
    if (step_size!=sv_stepsize) {
        set_cvar_num("sv_stepsize",sv_stepsize)
    }
}

you can also lower seconds to 1.0 or sth. like that, since this checks first if change is needed

hope this helps..

doesn't that only check once?

oops:

change:

Code:

set_task(seconds,"MyTimer")

to:

Code:

set_task(seconds,"MyTimer",0,"",0,"b")

btw:
there is another way to do this with no timer at all
with register_logevent, i'm going to try this..

did you wait the complete 30 seconds, it looks right to me...
