No, I belive all that does is allocate 32768 bytes of memory for your plugin .

And you cant extend the motd size anyway, its hardcoded into hl, or other mods......

One time I coundn't get about 20 lines, but after #pragma I was able to get over 50 lines

as far as i know there is no motd size limit coded into amxx or hl, it's related to pawn. allocating more memory lets the string that you show be nearly as large as it wants, so that all of the data is sent to amxx (and in turn to hl) when the time comes.

it is, its around 1600 when send via the the hl1 engine. This is why you should send a url instead. For this reason and the fact that this plugin is not realy simple to configure i conclude that this plugin is realy something thats more usefull to creator then the public. Anything think this plugin is usefull ?

I don't see how it's useless. It simply tells you how many hits you've had, and for idiots that don't know HTML it also gives them a MOTD.

BTW EKS, it modifies the motd.txt each time someone joins, and shows the amount of hits the server has had.

Looks sorta like this:

Welcome to <hostname>!

You are our <hits> visitor!

I plan on extending this, so even if you don't plan on approving it, at least don't trash it.

eks, i took a look at the source code for both hl and amxx and can find no where a cap, it simply gets the length of the string, whatever it may be, and sends it using that as the length.

the only cap would be from the data type.

There is a hardcoded limit, around 16xx bytes. Thats why you should send a url link instead ( then there is no limit, as the link gets rendered by IE or some other browser.
If you care to find the exact number, look in the runemod source code. I think i have a define for it there.

I approved the plugin since you gonna expand the plugin atm, its kind of useless i think at least. But others may like it

Updated to 1.1. Read first page for details.

I plan on extended this. I just rushed out a quick fix before I went into total studying for exams

Suggestions:

Adding:
<playerrank>
<bestplayer>
<playerkills>
<playerdeaths>
<playerhss>
<timesincelastvisit> (may short this down)
<playersonline>
<adminsonline>

playerrank - Your place in the rank list
bestplayer - The 1:st player in top15/rank
playerkills - Your kills in total
playerdeaths - Your deths in total
playerhss - Your HS's in total
timesincelastvisit - Time since last visit
playersonline - How many online/playing
adminsonline - How many admins online/playing


Just a brainstorm!
Allso adding all the stats for the player (shots, accuracy etc.) would be nice.

Nice plugin

this just doesnt write player count...
anybody knows why?
