How can I get only terrorists or counter-terrorists in get_players()? with corresponding count.

For cstrike.

[#8 SickneSS]

new iPlayers[32]
new iNum

get_players(iPlayers, iNum, "ch" /*Ingnores Bots and HLTV */, "TERRORIST" or "CT")

[Backstabnoob]

get_players(players,num,"ceh","TERRORIST");

This returns CTs, too.

Edit:

This should select one player as a random T:

public random_t()
{
new players[g_maxplayers];
static num;

get_players(players,num,"ceh","TERRORIST");

if(num)
{
new x = random_num(1, num);

if(is_user_connected(x) && is_user_alive(x))
g_random_t = x;
}
}

RandomPlayer()
{
new players[32], pnum;
get_players(players, pnum);
// get_players(players, pnum, "e", "CT");
//get_players(players, pnum, "e", "TERRORIST"

if( !pnum ) return -1;

return players[random(pnum)];
}

RandomPlayer()
{
new players[32], pnum;
get_players(players, pnum);
// get_players(players, pnum, "e", "CT");
//get_players(players, pnum, "e", "TERRORIST"

if( !pnum ) return -1;

return players[random(pnum)];
}


Can someone explain this step?
Does it have any return value or smth?

if( !pnum )

Dude why do you even bother restoring a 10 years old thread? :O
Either way, if there are no players (!pnum) the function returns -1.

Because he has a legitimate question about the topic.

pnum is the number of players. If pnum is 0(!pnum is the same as pnum == 0) then there are no players so a random player cannot be retrieved.

Yeah, I give him credit for searching first.

Upri98, to use that RandomPlayer function you would do something like:

new iRandom = RandomPlayer();

if ( iRandom == -1 )
{
//No random players available
}
else
{
//iRandom is your random player
}
