Re: nVault Tutorial

May be unrelated to your current issue but may cause other unexpected behavior.

In a few areas you are assuming a record will be found and that you'll have an iTS value to check. If a record is...

Re: nVault Tutorial

The logic I gave you will work, but the way you designed your plugin may need some adjustment to allow it to work.

Re: nVault Tutorial

If the item is remaining the same, there's no need to call formatex()/nvault_set(), since all you need to do is update the timestamp on an existing record.

Re: nVault Tutorial

Ok, then do not call nvault_prune(), just check if the timestamp is expired how you did above.

if iTS >= get_systime() - Item still valid/not expired
if iTS < get_systime() - Item expired

Re: nVault Tutorial

If the intent is to show the menu only if the vault record exists, you'd do:

@SkinsMenu( id )
{
new szData[ 64 ], szID[ 3 ], szVal[ 12 ], iTS, iMenu;

if ( nvault_lookup( g_iVault,...

Set the timestamp of the item to a future date when you want it to expire using nvault_touch(). On plugin_cfg(), call nvault_prune( vault , 0 , get_systime() ). When a player attempts to use an item,...

Re: nVault Tutorial

This is probably the simplest nvault transaction, I'm not sure what you do not understand. This is as simple as I can get it.

Think about it logically.

1. Read this tutorial again
2. Read how nvault_remove() works, specifically what you pass to it.

Re: nVault Tutorial

It looks like you are trying to remove a record by it's value, which, based on the variable name, will likely not be unique. You should store data using steam id as key and then pass that to...

Re: nVault Tutorial

I agree with all that. The only argument I make is when we are talking AMX-X plugins, the steam-id should be stored in a string. Whether you include STEAM_0:0: is up to you, but there will be...

Re: nVault Tutorial

How would you pass an integer into the query? Wouldn't the steam id always go into a SQL query string? I agree with you in the table design setting the steamid as in integer, 4 bytes would always be...

Yes, but from a plugin perspective you would still be better off storing the steam id as string, right?

Re: nVault Tutorial

The maximum number of players that is supported is 32, hence MAX_PLAYERS = 32 is used.

The + 1 is done strictly for sizing an array. Like I said, you could set it directly to 33 but it is not...

Re: nVault Tutorial

You can do that, but MAX_PLAYERS is 32 so its not technically proper to set it to 33 directly.

Its not complicated if the variable (global) has a different scope. Give me an example for how this would affect portability.
