Hi all,
i have a plugin (SM-Quiz) that uses a Panel to show Questions to dead players.
Now i have the Problem, that these Panel stays open when a new round starts.
I have tried to close the panel that way:

PHP Code:

HookEvent("round_end",closePanels,EventHookMode_PostNoCopy);
...
public closePanels(Handle: event, const String: name[], bool: dontBroadcast)
{
   new Handle:hEmptyPanel = INVALID_HANDLE;

   hEmptyPanel = CreatePanel();
   SetPanelTitle(hEmptyPanel, " ");
   for(new i = 1; i <= GetMaxClients(); i++)
   {
      // check if client is valid and could have a panel displayed
      if(hasClientPanel(i))
      {
         // Send empty panel that closes after 1 sec
         SendPanelToClient(hEmptyPanel, i, Handler_QuizPanel, 1);
      }
   }
   CloseHandle(hEmptyPanel);
} 


Unfortunately that does only work sometimes. Any idea how to do that?

Maybe just...

HookEvent("round_end",closePanels,EventHookMode_Post);

public closePanels(Handle:event, const String: name[], bool: dontBroadcast)
{
  CloseQuiz(menu);
}

public Action:CloseQuiz(Handle:menu)
{
CloseHandle(menu);
}

Hmmm... this would close the Handle (i.e. the functionality on server side), but not the displayed panel on the client i think.

I think what you already posted is the only way to do it. It should work fine. Does the quiz sometimes pop up after round end? If that's your problem, temporarily disable the quiz between round end and round start. just to be sure you catch anybody that may have one open.

hmmmm... possible. Should check this, thx for advice.

Can i check if theres another panel opened on the client (mapvote for example)? I could disable the quiz then, too.

Im not sure if this works for panels, but to check if they have a menu open (like a mapvote), you can use this.

PHP Code:

if (GetClientMenu(client) != MenuSource_None)
{
    // client currently has a menu open
}
