Yes.

I'll try to write a new example for doing complex sub menus, that use the same menu handler.

As always, donations help motivate me to put more tutorials out there for people.

[Erox902]

fysiks: are there any tutorials out on how to do this or should i check the slapmenus amxx?...
could only find this http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=14637 about the old menu system and that didn't really help

Emp`: that would always be appreciated

Look in plmenu.sma to see how it's done for the slap menu.

Ok I've looked at it and I think I understand most of it...
but anyhow do you know any other good (little more advanced)
tutorials on the old menu system?...
the only one I found (linked in my old post) wasn't very great and not that well explained :/

Figured out a way around this not sure if it's a good way thou

PHP Code:

#define MAX_EXAMPLES 3

new const EXAMPLES[MAX_EXAMPLES][]=
{
   "10", "15", "20"
}

new gSelectedExample[id]

--------------------------------------------

public show_menu(id)
{
   new menu = menu_create("Example #1", "handleExample")
   
   static Selected[16]
   formatex( Selected, charsmax(Selected), "amount: %d", EXAMPLES[gSelectedExample[id]] )

   menu_additem(Selected, "1")
   ... skipping
}

public handleExample(id, menu, item)
{
  ..... skipping

  case 1:
  {
      gSelectedExample[id]++

      if(gSelectedExample[id] > MAX_EXAMPLES-1
         gSelectedExample[id] = 0;

      show_menu(id)
    }
}

Hey I got aware of this new type of menu just by today (always used the old style O.o)

So I was wondering how to merge these 2 menu parts.
old one:

PHP Code:

public select_class(id,lx[])
{
    if(is_user_bot(id)) return
    new flags[11]
    get_cvar_string("diablo_classes",flags,10)
    new text[512]
    new keys = read_flags(flags)
    
    asked_klass[id]=0
    
    format(text, 511,"\ySelect Class - ^n")
    
    for(new i=0;i<9;i++)
    {
        format(text, 511,"%s%s%d. %s  Level :%d ^n",text,(keys)&(1<<i)?"\w":"\d",i+1,Race[i+1], lx[i+1])
    }
    

    show_menu(id, keys, text) 
} 


The new one:

PHP Code:

public select_class(id,lx)
{
    if(is_user_bot(id)) return
    asked_klass[id]=0
    
    new menu = menu_create("\rSelect class:", "select_class_menu");
    menu_additem(menu, "\wMage", "1", 0);
    menu_additem(menu, "\wMonk", "2", 0);
    menu_additem(menu, "\wPaladin", "3", 0);
    menu_additem(menu, "\wAssassin", "4", 0);
    menu_additem(menu, "\wNecromancer", "5", 0);
    menu_additem(menu, "\wBarbarian", "6", 0);
    menu_additem(menu, "\wNinja", "7", 0);
    menu_additem(menu, "\wDemonHunter", "8", 0);
    menu_additem(menu, "\wPirate", "9", 0);
    menu_setprop(menu, MPROP_EXIT, MEXIT_ALL);
    menu_display(id, menu, 0);
} 


As in the old menu I got certain access flags which could disallow people to pick certain classes per map (defined by cvars). And also when they see the menu they can see the current level.

Thanks in advance

PHP Code:

public select_class(id,lx)
{
    if(is_user_bot(id))
    {
        return
    }

    asked_klass[id]=0

    // Make the menu static so we don't need to format it and destroy it each time

The compiling doesn't work. Perhaps some useful information: it's used for Diablo Mod version 5.9 if you need the default script it's linked: http://amxx.pl/topic/8621-diablo-mod-59l-sql/

P.S. the classes restriction goes with a cvar from a-i (every class it's own letter).

Edit:
This is my current menu (old style)

PHP Code:


public select_class(id,lx[])
{
    if(is_user_bot(id)) return
    new flags[11]
    get_cvar_string("diablo_classes",flags,10)
    new text[512]
    new keys = read_flags(flags)
    
    asked_klass[id]=0
    
    format(text, 511,"\ySelect Class - ^n")
    
    for(new i=0;i<9;i++)
    {
        format(text, 511,"%s%s%d. %s  Level :%d ^n",text,(keys)&(1<<i)?"\w":"\d",i+1,Race[i+1], lx[i+1])
    }
    

    show_menu(id, keys, text) 
}

public select_class_menu(id, key) 
{ 
    g_haskit[id] = 0
    switch(key) 
    { 
        case 0: 
        {    
            player_class[id] = Mage    
            
        }
        case 1: 
        {    
            player_class[id] = Monk
            
        }
        case 2: 
        {    
            player_class[id] =  Paladin
            for (new i=0; i < 33; i++){
            count_jumps(i)
            JumpsLeft[i]=JumpsMax[i]
            
        }
                            
        }
        case 3: 
        {    
            player_class[id] = Assassin
            
        }
        case 4: 
        {            
            player_class[id] = Necromancer
            g_haskit[id] = 1
            
        }
        case 5: 
        {    
            player_class[id] = Barbarian    
                    
        }
        case 6: 
        {    
            player_class[id] = Ninja
            
        }
        case 7: 
        {    
            player_class[id] = Demon_Hunter
            g_GrenadeTrap[id] = 1
            
        }    
        case 8: 
        {    
            player_class[id] = Pirate
            
            
        }        
        
    }
    client_print(id,print_chat,"[Diablo Mod] Type /classinfo to get more information about your class!")
    
    LoadXP(id, player_class[id])
    CurWeapon(id)
    
    give_knife(id)
    //classmodels(id)    
    return PLUGIN_HANDLED
} 


This is the cvar:

PHP Code:

    register_cvar("diablo_classes", "abcdefghi")
    // a Mage
    // b Paladin
    // c Monk
    // d Assassin
    // e Barbarian
    // f Necromancer
    // g Ninja
    // h Demon Hunter
    // i Pirate 


When there is a letter missing in the diablo_classes it won't light up (stay dark / unpickable) when you wish to select a class.
If you need more details please ask for them.
