if i put the above code into a client prethink it doesn't work (mins the return PLUGIN_HANDLED of course). It works just fine if i keep it as a regular function with a "set_task 0.1 b" on it, which is a terrible way to do it. i'd prefer it in a client_prethink, but it stops working and i don't get any runtime errors.

Any ideas?

Maybe it's a problem with message_begin() & Player PreThink.

I'm using a similar plugin on my server and with FM_PlayerPreThink and a HudMessage it works perfectly.

#include <amxmodx>
#include <fakemeta>

public plugin_init()
{
    register_plugin("KZ Aiming", "0.1.a", "PrEn1umz");
    register_forward(FM_PlayerPreThink, "Forward_PlayerPreThink", 0);
}

public Forward_PlayerPreThink(id)
{
    new TargetID, TargetBody, TargetName[32];
    
    get_user_aiming(id, TargetID, TargetBody);
    get_user_name(TargetID, TargetName, 31);
        
    new player = find_player("a", TargetName);
        
    if (player)
    {
        new pTime = get_systime() - g_Time[TargetID];
        set_hudmessage(0, 255, 255, -1.0, -1.0, 1, 0.2, 0.2, 0.0, 0.0, 3);
        
        if (g_TimerStarted[TargetID])
        {
            show_hudmessage(id, "%s - %02d:%02d - CP: %d - TP: %d", TargetName, (pTime/60), (pTime%60), g_CheckpointNum[TargetID], g_GocheckNum[TargetID]);
        }
        else
        {
            show_hudmessage(id, "%s - Timer OFF - CP: %d - TP: %d", TargetName, g_CheckpointNum[TargetID], g_GocheckNum[TargetID]);
        }
    }
}

You had id in some of the message_begin's instead of target... maybe this is why?? not sure. try it out.

PHP Code:

public plugin_init()
{
     register_forward(FM_PlayerPreThink, "Forward_PlayerPreThink", 0);
}
public Forward_PlayerPreThink(id)
{
    new target, body, distance
    get_user_aiming(id, target, body, distance);
    new tnum = timer[target][TMR_CNTTME] / 10
    if(is_user_connected(target))
    { 
        new ip[32];
        get_user_ip(target, ip, sizeof ip - 1, 1);
        
        new country[32];
        geoip_country(ip, country, sizeof country - 1);
        
        new name[33];
        get_user_name( target, name, sizeof name - 1  );
        
        new Buffer[512];
        format(Buffer, sizeof Buffer - 1, "^x03%s | CPs: %d | GCs: %d | Time : %d:%02d", name, timer[target][TMR_CNTCPS], timer[target][TMR_CNTGCS], tnum/60,tnum%60);
        
        message_begin(MSG_ONE, get_user_msgid("StatusText"), _, target);
        write_byte(0);
        write_string(Buffer);
        message_end();
    }else
    {
        message_begin(MSG_ONE, get_user_msgid("StatusText"), _, target);
        write_byte(0);
        write_string("");
        message_end();
    }
    return PLUGIN_CONTINUE
