I have a question about calling a function from another function.
I don't know how i can explain it well, so i'll make an example.

public client_connect(id)
{
    check_something(id) // This is called. 
    
    client_print(id, print_chat, "some stuff");
}

public check_something(id)
{
    // do some stuff here.
}

My question is the order the code works in:
is it like:

- client connects
- client_connect is called
- client_connect calls check_something and waits
- check_something does something
- client_connect prints the msg

or like this:

- client connects
- client_connect is called
- client_connect calls check_something and prints the message
- check_something does something

This may be a stupid question, but i need the answer for a plugin i'm making.

The first scenario is correct.

check_something() is called and completed before client_print() will be called. Meaning everything in check_something() is executed before client_print().

Thanks, that's all i needed.

No problem, this may be usefull to other people to i think.

EDIT: Let's say i return PLUGIN_HANDLED in public checksomething(id). Will client_connect still continue then? and if so, is there a way to stop that?

Yes, it'll still continue.

To stop that, you could do something like this.

func()
{
    if( check_something() == PLUGIN_HANDLED )
    {
        return PLUGIN_HANDLED;
    }

    // stuff
}

if i have a while loop that i break in check_something(id), can i do something like this?

if(check_something(id) == break)
    return PLUGIN_HANDLED;

EDIT: I tried it, can't compile. How do i do this then? I can't return PLUGIN_HANDLED after break to.

func()
{
    new blah
    check_something(id, blah)

    if( blah == 1 )
        // break occured in check_something()
        // ...
}

check_something( id, &val )
{
    while()
    {
        if()
        {
            val = 1
    
            break;
        }
    }
}
