[SpirT]

Hey!

Today i decided to improve my experience with SourcPawn by starting to do KeyValues. So, to test it out, i tried to do a "Advertisements SpirT's version" hahahha.

The problem is that it sends all the messages on the file. So I have this.

KeyValues Config File:

"SomeAds"
{
	"1"
	{
		"message" "{blue}This is the first message"
	}
	"2"
	{
		"message" "{red}This is the second message"
	}
}

SP file:

PHP Code:

#pragma semicolon 1

#define DEBUG

char file[512];

#define PLUGIN_AUTHOR "SpirT"
#define PLUGIN_VERSION "1.0"

#include <sourcemod>
#include <sdktools>
#include <colors>

#pragma newdecls required

public Plugin myinfo = 
{
    name = "[Ads] SpirT",
    author = PLUGIN_AUTHOR,
    description = "",
    version = PLUGIN_VERSION,
    url = ""
};

public void GetKeyValuesFile()
{
    BuildPath(Path_SM, file, sizeof(file), "configs/SomeAds.cfg");
}

public void OnMapStart()
{
    CreateTimer(10.0, Timer_DisplayAds, _, TIMER_REPEAT);
}

public Action Timer_DisplayAds(Handle timer, Handle hndl)
{
    SendAds();
}

public void SendAds()
{
    GetKeyValuesFile();
    
    KeyValues kv = new KeyValues("SomeAds");
    kv.ImportFromFile(file);
    
    //Vamos para a primeira SubSection
    if (!kv.GotoFirstSubKey())
    {
        delete kv;
    }
    
    do
    {
        char Ad[512];
        kv.GetString("message", Ad, sizeof(Ad));
        
        CPrintToChatAll(Ad);
        
    } while (kv.GotoNextKey());
    
    delete kv;
    
    if(!kv.GotoNextKey())
    {
        kv.GotoFirstSubKey();
    }
} 


Is there any way to just send only a message for every 10 seconds?

Regards,

SpirT.

You save the messages in an ArrayList and show the current index (you start from 0 on OnMapStart).

PHP Code:

#pragma semicolon 1

#define DEBUG

char file[512];

int g_iAd;

#define PLUGIN_AUTHOR "SpirT"
#define PLUGIN_VERSION "1.0"

#include <sourcemod>
#include <sdktools>
#include <colors>

#pragma newdecls required

public Plugin myinfo = 
{
    name = "[Ads] SpirT",
    author = PLUGIN_AUTHOR,
    description = "",
    version = PLUGIN_VERSION,
    url = ""
};

public void GetKeyValuesFile()
{
    BuildPath(Path_SM, file, sizeof(file), "configs/SomeAds.cfg");
}

public void OnMapStart()
{
    CreateTimer(10.0, Timer_DisplayAds, _, TIMER_REPEAT);
}

public Action Timer_DisplayAds(Handle timer, Handle hndl)
{
    g_iAd++;
    
    SendAds();
}

void SendAds()
{
    KeyValues kv = new KeyValues("SomeAds");
    
    kv.ImportFromFile(file);
    
    if (!kv.JumpToKey(g_iAd))
        g_iAd = 0;
    
    else
    {
        char Ad[256];
        
        kv.GetString("message", Ad, sizeof(Ad));
        
        CPrintToChatAll(Ad);
    }
    
    delete kv;
}

Hey. Thanks for your reply. I wake up now and my mind is not ok for now. I'm not understanding what that the int g_iAd. What is that int doing?

EDIT: Hey, now, that my brain is ok, i now understand what was the int doing. Thanks for your help!

Regards,

SpirT.

Hey again! Seems that our work is not done yet!

When I try to compile it says (I tried even by copying and pasting the full code you sent):

if (!kv.JumpToKey(g_iAd)) -> Error 035: argument type mismatch (argument 2)

I already tried to if (!kv.JumpToKey(g_iAd, false)) but it does not work. By Sourcemod API, false means that it would not create a key with that name.

What's the fix?

Regards,

SpirT.

yeah, my bad.

it's expecting a string, not an int

Does this might work correctly?:

PHP Code:

int g_iAd;
...

char IntValue[64];
IntToString(g_iAd, IntValue, sizeof(IntValue));

if(!kv.JumpToKey(IntValue))

... //other part of the code

that'll do just fine
