Hello! I am having a hard time understanding the player vote menu example from https://forums.alliedmods.net/showth...6364#AVoteMenu ,
and would appreciate if somebody could help me with the code

I am trying to make a Vote menu which opens to all T players only when a T player types /vote
from where T players can place a vote on chosen existing CT player and then execute a cmd on the one with most the votes

#include <amxmodx>
#include <amxmisc>
#include <cstrike>

public plugin_init() 
	register_clcmd( "say /vote","AwesomeMenu" );

public AwesomeMenu( id )
{
	new menu = menu_create( "Vote which CT to do action on:", "menu_handler" );
	
	new players[32], pnum, tempid
	new szName[32], szTempid[10]
	
	get_players(players, pnum)
	
	for( new i; i<pnum; i++ )
	{
		tempid = players[i]
		
		if (cs_get_user_team(tempid) != CS_TEAM_CT)
		{
			continue
		}
		get_user_name(tempid, szName, 31)
		num_to_str(tempid, szTempid, 9)
		menu_additem(menu, szName, szTempid, 0)
	}

	menu_setprop( menu, MPROP_EXIT, MEXIT_ALL );

	menu_display( id, menu, 0 );

}
public menu_handler( id, menu, item ){
	//Store votes from all T players whom voted>
	//Then execute action on the max voted CT player from menu
}

So, what's your doubt?
The code you provided add all CT players and their respective indexes to the menu.

menu_additem(menu, szName, szTempid)

In your case, szTempid is the index of the player. To get it in the menu_handler function, use menu_item_getinfo

new szTempid[10], iAccess, iCallback
menu_item_getinfo(menu, item, iAccess, szTempid, charsmax(szTempid), _, _, iCallback)
new player_id = str_to_num(szTempid)

// do something with player_id 

I would store the player userid instead of its index because if any of the players that are in the menu disconnect and another join in the same slot while the menu is open, you will end up selecting the wrong player. In your case, instead of this

num_to_str(tempid, szTempid, 9)

new player_id = str_to_num(szTempid)

you would have the following

num_to_str(get_user_userid(tempid), szTempid, 9)

new player_id = find_player("k", str_to_num(szTempid))
if (player_id)
{
    // player was found, do something
}
else
{
    // player is no longer connected
}

I am stil confused, so, when i get their ID, how do i gather & determine what to do with equal and greater votes

[CrazY.]

You'll need a global variable to store the votes.

new g_PlayerVotes[MAX_PLAYERS+1]

In menu_handler

g_PlayerVotes[player_id]++

Once the voting is over, determine the winner or winners

new minimum = 1
new players[MAX_PLAYERS], count

for (new i = 1; i < sizeof g_PlayerVotes; i++)
{
    if (g_PlayerVotes[i] > minimum)
        minimum = g_PlayerVotes[i]
}

for (new i = 1; i < sizeof g_PlayerVotes; i++)
{
    if (g_PlayerVotes[i] == minimum)
        players[count++] = i
}

if (count == 1)
{
    // just one winner 
}
else if (count > 1)
{
    // more than one winner, there is a tie 
}
else
{
    // no one received at least 1 vote 
}

In case of tie, you can start another voting but add just the players that tied in the menu, randomly choose between the winners or even work with all of them together. The winner indexes are stored in the players[] array and you would handle that just like get_players.
Note that you will need to do some is_user_connected checks (or work with userid) and reset the g_PlayerVotes[] array (set all to 0) every time a voting begin.

Thank you for the help!
I figured it out
