Stupid question:
I saw scripts that set the variable's value to the cvar's value at plugin_init(), without setting it using the register_cvar.
I.E:

PHP Code:

new pcvar1, pcvar2, pcvar3, pcvar4;
public plugin_init(){

     register_cvar("OMG_IM_A_CVAR", "1337");
     register_cvar("dor123_is_such_a_newbie", "0");
     register_cvar("haha_cvars_funny_word", "12");
     register_cvar("woot_cvars_everywhere", "50");

     pcvar1 = get_cvar_num("OMG_IM_A_CVAR");
     pcvar2 = get_cvar_num("dor123_is_such_a_newbie");
     pcvar3 = get_cvar_num("haha_cvars_funny_word");
     pcvar4 = get_cvar_num("woot_cvars_everywhere");

     // instead of:

     pcvar1 = register_cvar("OMG_IM_A_CVAR", "1337");
     // etc...
} 


What I wondered was if it only registers the variable's value at the plugin initial, will it be changed when the cvar itself changed? For example: cvar "hello_world" is set to "1". Admin changes it to "2". will pcvar (pcvar = get_cvar_num("hello_world")) be changed to 2 as well at the rest of the plugin? Or will it stay the original cvar's value because it's at plugin_init?
Hope you understand what I mean...

OK, then i'll stick with pcvar1 = register_cvar("...", "...").
Thanks and +karma...

get_cvar_pointer() is used for cvar which is not in your plugin.

new pointer = get_cvar_pointer( "amx_other_cvars" )

And to retrieve the value, use get_pcvar_*().

Yeah I know I just wanted to make sure. Thanks.
