MaxClients changes per game - after compilation. For l4d2 it's 8, for css 32? or something like that.
MAXPLAYERS is a definition, its value is specified somewhere in the sourcemod includes and the compiler translates it to 64 i guess. always, doesnt matter which game, its not even sure which game the plugin will be running on.

There are a lot more cases in which you'll need MaxClients rather than MAXPLAYERS.

MaxClients will equal whatever the server's maxplayers var is set to with the exception that it is 0 before the first map start. It's great for loops on players.

As Thrawn said, MAXPLAYERS is just a hardcoded define of 64, the highest that any source game goes. This allows multigame plugins to declare global player arrays large enough to hold however many players the server may be started with.

if i want to get all the common infected id using a for loop, e.g. for(new i = 0 ; i <= "Something", i++), does this "something" exist?

deprecated, use MaxClients instead. Contains the same value.

does this "something" exist?

GetMaxEntities() is the one you are looking for. Not sure if there is a MaxEntities var.

PHP Code:

DoStuffToInfected()
{
    new iMaxEntities = GetMaxEntities();
    for (new iEntity = MaxClients + 1; iEntity < iMaxEntities; iEntity++)
    {
        if (IsCommonInfected(iEntity))
        {
            // Do stuff here...
        }
    }
}

stock bool:IsCommonInfected(iEntity)
{
    if (iEntity && IsValidEntity(iEntity)
    {
        decl String:strClassName[64];
        GetEdictClassName(iEntity, strClassName, sizeof(strClassName));
        return StrEqual(strClassName, "infected");
    }
    return false;
}

Thanks very much~~~
