I used this page for reference... http://wiki.amxmodx.org/index.php/Advanced_Scripting_%28AMX_Mod_X%29

To make a long story short, I'm trying to make a bazooka hero that will fire more than one missile on a given keydown. Here is what I was attempting...

//Original Code
        switch(icmd){
            case 1: make_rocket(id,icmd,get_cvar_num("armageddon_speed"),0)
            case 2: make_rocket(id,icmd,get_cvar_num("armageddon_speed"),0)
            case 3: make_rocket(id,icmd,get_cvar_num("armageddon_speed"),0)
            case 5: make_rocket(id,icmd,get_cvar_num("armageddon_hsspeed"),0)
            case 6: make_rocket(id,icmd,get_cvar_num("armageddon_rsspeed"),0)
            case 7: make_rocket(id,icmd,get_cvar_num("armageddon_sdspeed"),0)
            default: make_rocket(id,icmd,get_cvar_num("armageddon_speed"),0)

//New Code
case 1: set_task(0.3, "make_rocket(id,icmd,1000,0)",id,"",0,"a",10)

I tried doing this, and it worked, only it didn't create any baz entities...it would let you know with the client_print that it was trying to fire, only nothing was getting created.
And, it's like it only excutes once. You only get 1 message, not 10. It should be running 10 times correct? Any thoughts or help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

-Edit-
I also tried this, and the baz's would create properly, only too close together. They would just collide with one another and explode immediately, killing you =D. If I had a way to control the time and make them fire off fractions of seconds apart, it would be alright I guess - this is what lead me to think I need to use a set_task.

//More Code
case 1:
{
 make_rocket(id,icmd,get_cvar_num("armageddon_speed"),0) 
 make_rocket(id,icmd,get_cvar_num("armageddon_speed"),0)
 make_rocket(id,icmd,get_cvar_num("armageddon_speed"),0)
}

that is not how set_task works. heres what it should look like

some_function(id)
{
//heres your set_task
new parm[5]
parm[0] = id
parm[1] = icmd
parm[2] = get_cvar_num("armageddon_speed")
parm[3] = 0
set_task(0.3, "delayed_rockets", id, parm, 4, "a", 10)
}
public delayed_rockets(parm[])
{
make_rocket(parm[0],parm[1],parm[2],parm[3])
}

Alrighty! Thank you for the detailed explanation. I looked for a script to try and find something for referrence, but I couldn't find one...
-edit- the same script has an example *slaps forehead* DOH!

Once again, you're the man.

Can we add this to that amx_scripting wiki? Like with a comment?
