@Xvil... why use engine?

PHP Code:

    message_begin(MSG_BROADCAST,SVC_TEMPENTITY); 
    
    write_coord(start[0]); // x 


Where is the temp entity TYPE ? it's missing.

what do you mean?

I had it compiled but when i went in the game to test it,
when a player was going to die (but not dead yet) the server had overflow or crash not sure and it kicked me out.

I mixed it into the distance meter plugin from SchlumPF
this is how the entire script looks like:

You're missing the TE_* byte that needs to be written after you begin the message. You can see all examples here: Const.h Messages Written for AMX

[striker07]

ah ok so to fix this i should add for the lignthining (beam):

PHP Code:

#define TE_LIGHTNING    7 
//and one line below message_begin:
write_byte(TE_LIGHTNING) 


and for the explosion:

PHP Code:

#define TE_EXPLOSION    3
// and
write_byte(TE_EXPLOSION) 


I also noticed this :

PHP Code:

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#define TE_BEAMSPRITE   18    // A beam with a sprite at the end
 
message_begin(MSG_ ,SVC_TEMPENTITY) //message begin
write_byte(TE_)
write_coord() // start position
write_coord()
write_coord()
write_coord() // end position
write_coord()
write_coord()
write_short() // beam sprite index
write_short() // end sprite index
message_end()
//----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 


Would id be better to limit cpu/ram peeks if I use this type of sprite displaying? this way i dont need to work with tasks. so that when the lightning hits the endpoint the explosion automaticly shows?

I will apply the changes and test out some stuff when i get home.
thank you all for your help, much appreciated
