Hi...i saw in many plugins this:

PHP Code:

public plugin_init()
{
       // what ever
       return PLUGIN_CONTINUE;
} 


When i should use a return value in plugin_init ?

There is no need to use a return PLUGIN_X inside of plugin_init, unless you don't want your plugin to work or in a restricted mode. In which case you can just use return inside of your statement. This way you don't need to add an extra return at the end of plugin_init.

Example:

public plugin_init()
{
    register_plugin( PLUGIN, VERSION, AUTHOR )
    
    if ( !cstrike_running() )
    {
        log_message( "%s - error: failed to load plugin ( Counter-Strike Only! )", PLUGIN )
        return
    }

    // REST OF YOUR CODE/FUNCTIONALITY HERE
}

I was shur you will say that...for example:

PHP Code:

public plugin_init() {  
   register_plugin("Bullet Damage","1.0","f117bomb")  
   register_event("Damage", "damage_msg", "b", "2!0", "3=0", "4!0")
   register_cvar("bullet_damage","0") 
   return PLUGIN_CONTINUE  
} 


?

Ok....but why is there ? or, it has no effect ?

It's completly useless.

well now it is useless
but i remember a bug in amxx 0.16 ( i think it was this version )
where you could use "return PLUGIN_HANDLED" and plugin_init will not be executed on all the other plugins that are loaded after yours^^
