And i need to follow function OnVipMenuCreated from main plugin in child plugins.
Global forward gives an error: OnVipMenuCreated already defined
How can i make it?

Sorry for bad english

Sure.

This is main plugin:

#include "gf_effects.sp"
#include "gf_revive.sp"

Handle forward_OnVipMenuCreated;

public OnPluginStart() {
	forward_OnVipMenuCreated = CreateGlobalForward("OnVipMenuCreated", ET_Ignore, Param_Cell, Param_Cell);
}


public Action VipMenu(int client, int args) {

	int playerLevel = global_playerLvl[client];
	PrepareOnMenuForward(client, playerLvl);
	
}
void PrepareOnMenuForward(int playerID, int playerLvl) {
	Call_StartForward(forward_OnVipMenuCreated);
	Call_PushCell(playerID);
	Call_PushCell(playerLvl);
	Call_Finish();
}

First child plugin gf_effects

public OnVipMenuCreated(int playerID, int playerLvl) {
	*some code*
}

And second child plugin gf_revive

public OnVipMenuCreated(int playerID, int playerLvl) {
	*some code*
}

#include is basically the same as copying and pasting. Your example code is one plugin, just split up into multiple files. That's why you're getting an error about defining the same function multiple times.

If you actually make them separate plugins, you can use a global forward like in the code you gave. You'll probably have to make natives (like in the article linked by the previous reply) since you can't directly call another plugin's functions.

The simplest change would be to give them different names like OnVipMenuEffects and OnVipMenuRevive and manually call them instead of using a forward. If you add new files, you'll have to remember to update the functions you call.

Another way is to use a private forward (see https://wiki.alliedmods.net/Function...Mod_Scripting)) to have each file register its own callbacks. This isn't very different from the previous suggestion, though, since you'll still have to manually do that registration/call some initialization function per file.

Thank you! I'm already using different names and write them names into array. Then when i need, i using this array to calling the functions

char global_menucalls[][] = {
	{"Vip_ReviveRowAction"},
	{"Vip_EffectsRowAction"}
};

int VipMenu_Handler(Menu vipMenu, MenuAction action, int param1, int param2) {	
	if (action == MenuAction_Select) {
		char selectedPos[32];
		GetMenuItem(vipMenu, param2, selectedPos, sizeof(selectedPos));
		
		if(strcmp(selectedPos, "trade", false) == 0) {
			Menu_SelectPlayer(param1);
		}
		
		for (int i = 0; i < sizeof(global_menucalls); i++) {
			
			Function func = GetFunctionByName(INVALID_HANDLE, global_menucalls[i][0]);
			Call_StartFunction(null, func);
			Call_PushCell(vipMenu);
			Call_PushCell(action);
			Call_PushCell(param1);
			Call_PushCell(param2);
			Call_PushCell(global_playerLvl[param1]);
			Call_Finish();
		}
	}
	
	if (action == MenuAction_End) {
		delete vipMenu;
	}
}
