Thanks for the update edon1337. The team menu / editor doesn't work on bots.

Change

PHP Code:

get_players( iPlayers, iNum, "ch" ); 


to

PHP Code:

get_players( iPlayers, iNum, "h" ); 


Most of the people would find it annoying seeing bots in the team menu, so I decided to hide them, but if you want you can change it.

Thanks will do! I rather transfer a bot instead of disturbing an actual players game play.

Hey sometimes when I type in chat it will display my chat with (Counter-Terrorist) before my rank/username/text. I'm not using a prefix. Example below

BTW. I have ranks_in_chat enabled.

(Counter-Terrorist) Owner - NAS | WarrioR : blah blah blah

Hi, I can't get the map to change

This is the message:

[EAS] Your Owner privileges expire on: 12/31/2019 00:00:00
] amx_map de_inferno
[EAS] No access to this command!

The weird thing is that I can't use amx_map to change

amx_map de_inferno
[EAS] No access to this command!

I'm using this version of amxmod 1.8.3-dev+5201

In the log files I have this now:

L 12/21/2019 - 23:33:24: -------- Mapchange to de_dust2 --------
L 12/21/2019 - 23:33:25: [pluginmenu.amxx] Can't add menu item "Plugin Cvars" from plugin "pluginmenu.amxx" to menu set because the Menus Front-End plugin itself is not loaded!
L 12/21/2019 - 23:33:25: [pluginmenu.amxx] Can't add menu item "Plugin Commands" from plugin "pluginmenu.amxx" to menu set because the Menus Front-End plugin itself is not loaded!

At first I didn't show this.

Go to /configs/EliteAdminSystem_Config.cfg and search MAP_FLAG , see what the flag is, then go to the game and type amx_who and see if you have that flag, if you don't then you need to either change the MAP_FLAG or set yourself the MAP_FLAG.

Cached is_user_alive and is_user_connected natives for optimization Cached name, steamid and ip into global variables for optimization

This is not an optimization. These values are already available inside variables in the game, calling the natives simply retrieve the value that is already stored - no heavy computation is required to determine alive/connected status or name/ip/steamid. All these operations are O(1).
You lose more trying to maintain the cached values up-to-date than if you used the natives directly.

Look at what is needed to keep g_szName up to date: hook SayText, retrieve the arguments, register a fakemeta hook, retrieve the new name, unregister the hook.
The cost of these operations is not amortized at any point.

Caching makes sense when recomputing the value would be slow or when caching the value does not require any effort(caching get_user_msgid is an example of effortless caching).
In this case, all you got is a more code(which means more potential source of errors) for no speed gain.

-------

You should look at your algorithms and optimize that. For example it looks like g_aDatabase could be a trie(mapping name -> eData). The advantage is you will no longer need loops to retrieve data for a specific player.

Update v6.2b

* Added team say support for suspended players and players without prefix

Done.

Update v6.4

* Optimized name change event
* Used Tries instead of Arrays to store/retrieve data for/from players, which will increase performance.
