I have a var ReadyPlayer[id] = 0/1

What is the best way to pick 6 random of all of the ready players?

[redivcram]

#define MAXPLAYERS 32

...

ReadyPlayer[random_num(0, MAXPLAYERS)]

that not what I meant, I know who's ready and who's not, I just need a random that returns me 6 players from all those that are ready (ReadyPlayer[id] == 1)

Try this:

PHP Code:

new ready_list[7]
log_amx("Found %i players", get_randomplayers(ready_list, charsmax(ready_list)))


get_randomplayers(player_list[], player_amount)
{
    new server_playerlist[32], server_playernum
    get_players(server_playerlist, server_playernum, "a")

    new Array:array_playerlist = ArrayCreate()
    for(new i = 0; i < server_playernum; i++)
    {
        if(ReadyPlayer[ server_playerlist[i] ])
        {
            ArrayPushCell(array_playerlist, i)
        }
    }

    new playerlist_found = 0,
        playerlist_index

    while( (ArraySize(array_playerlist) && player_amount > playerlist_found) )
    {
        playerlist_index = random(ArraySize(array_playerlist))

        player_list[ playerlist_found ] = ArrayGetCell(array_playerlist, playerlist_index)
        ArrayDeleteItem(array_playerlist, playerlist_index)

        playerlist_found += 1
    }
    ArrayDestroy(array_playerlist)

    return playerlist_found
}

Best way to do this is by using playersnumber rather than maxplayers. In this case, the number returned is valid index/player.

AMXX 1.8.3:

PHP Code:

public test()
{
    new players[6], ret;
    ret = getRandom(players, sizeof players);

    //ret = amount of players returned (maybe lower than 6 if not enough are ready)
}

getRandom(players[], cnt)
{
    new copy_cnt, copy[sizeof ReadyPlayer];

    for(new i = 0; i < sizeof copy; i++)
    {
        if(ReadyPlayer[i])
           copy[copy_cnt++] = i;
    }

    SortIntegers(copy, copy_cnt, Sort_Random);
    copy_cnt = min(copy_cnt, cnt);

    for(new i = 0; i < copy_cnt; i++)
        players[i] = copy[i];
    
    return copy_cnt;
} 


If AMXX < 1.8.3, replace SortIntegers with this:

PHP Code:

SortCustom1D(copy, copy_cnt, "sortRandom");

public sortRandom()
{
    return random_num(-1, 1);
}
