this all sounds really sloppy XP

You can literally google a better solution...

Also about crontabs, the sourcemod server crontab plugin works PRETTY GOOD.

This doesn't work. It did "ONCE" one single idle rotation and that was it. After that it stopped working.

Just spams this 24/7:

L 10/27/2014 - 06:13:25: [SM] Plugin encountered error 15: Array index is out of bounds

Swap

PHP Code:

if(CurrentArrayPosition[i] > sizeof(koth_lakeside_event) -1)
{
    CurrentArrayPosition[i] = 0;
}

CurrentArrayPosition[i]++; 


around.

How do you swap all that code around?

I don't see what's different.

public Action:Timer_TeleportAllToGifts(Handle:timer)
{
	for(new i = 1; i <= GetMaxClients(); i++)
    {
		if(IsValidClient(i) && IsPlayerAlive(i) && g_bAutoGift[i])
		{
			new ArraySize = sizeof(koth_lakeside_event);
			PrintCenterText(i, "Location: %i / %i | Lap time: 47 Seconds.", CurrentArrayPosition[i], ArraySize);
		
			SetEntProp(i, Prop_Data, "m_takedamage", 0, 1);
			TF2_RemoveAllWeapons(i);
			
			decl Float:vecTpPos[3];
			vecTpPos[0] = koth_lakeside_event[CurrentArrayPosition[i]][0];
			vecTpPos[1] = koth_lakeside_event[CurrentArrayPosition[i]][1];
			vecTpPos[2] = koth_lakeside_event[CurrentArrayPosition[i]][2];
			
			vecTpPos[2] -= 64.0;
			
			TeleportEntity(i, vecTpPos, NULL_VECTOR, NULL_VECTOR);
			
			if(CurrentArrayPosition[i] > sizeof(koth_lakeside_event) -1)
			{
				CurrentArrayPosition[i] = 0;
			}
			
			CurrentArrayPosition[i]++;
		}
	}
}

I removed your attachment since it violates Valve's policy of truth.

Many people who download plugins from this board have an understanding that we curate submitted plugins to the best of our ability so that there will be no negative consequences on their servers.

Since your plugin violates Valve's policy of truth, it's putting anybody who runs it at risk of being delisted.

On the same token, I'm not sure how favorably Valve would look upon automated gift farming since they nuked idling a while ago, but since they haven't explicitly taken a stance on that issue I wouldn't consider it cause for alarm.

They have now.

... As time went on and Halloween updates came and went, however, some players spent more and more time focusing on gifts, often to the detriment of the players they were playing with. The Halloween experience for many players now consists of sitting idle in a custom server while a plugin teleports them from gift spawn point to gift spawn point. Ordinarily we don't mind if players do things that we don't personally enjoy as long as their fun doesn't harm the quality of experience for other players. In this particular case, however, because the overwhelming majority of gifts claimed went to a tiny handful of accounts, we feel comfortable characterizing the current system as blatantly and transparently unfair: While some farming accounts claimed more than five hundred gifts just last year, the median numbers of gifts claimed was only five. ...

They have taken a stance finally, they're changing farmable gift drops into 1 guaranteed drop and a 2nd guaranteed drop for completing the halloween event or something.

We'll get same average of drops that all players get.
