This is more of a request , but the thing is that I am not good at reading from ini files. I need a script that will read the map names from mapvote.ini and use it to create models in front of every mapvote_breaker entity, which is a func wall, without repeating any of them if there are more than or equal to 44 maps in the ini . For each model it should display the mapname in center if u get close to it. This is really important for me, because I want something that u can only find for CS, a map where u can vote other maps. This will be used for non-CS goldsrc servers. Thanks !

Btw, I did this, with no luck

    ent_light_1 = engfunc(EngFunc_CreateNamedEntity, engfunc(EngFunc_AllocString, "light"))
    set_pev(ent_light_1, pev_origin, "-417.0, 952.0, -165.0")
    //entity_set_origin(ent_light_1,Float:{-417.0,952.0,-165.0})
    DispatchKeyValue(ent_light_1, "brightness", "5");
    DispatchKeyValue(ent_light_1, "style", "0");
    DispatchKeyValue(ent_light_1, "_light", "241 241 241");
    dllfunc( DLLFunc_Spawn, ent_light_1 );
    }

Part of your request, that is reading an ini file and selecting random maps from it, without duplicates.

#include <amxmodx>
#include <amxmisc>

#define MAXNAMES 500
#define PANELCOUNT 40

new g_mapnames[MAXNAMES][32]
new g_mapcount
new g_mapselected[MAXNAMES]
new g_mapselection[PANELCOUNT]

public plugin_init()
{
    register_plugin("Random map selection", "1", "pizzahut")
    read_cfg_file()
    register_event("ResetHUD", "display_maps", "be")
}

read_cfg_file()
{
    new configfile[200]
    get_configsdir(configfile, charsmax(configfile))
    format(configfile, charsmax(configfile), "%s/maps.ini", configfile)
    if (file_exists(configfile))
    {
        new mapname[32], chars_read
        for (new line; (line < file_size(configfile, 1)) && (g_mapcount < MAXNAMES); line++)
        {
            read_file(configfile, line, mapname, charsmax(mapname), chars_read)
            if (is_map_valid(mapname))
            {
                copy(g_mapnames[g_mapcount], charsmax(g_mapnames[]), mapname)
                g_mapcount++
            }
        }
    }
    new map
    for (new panel; (panel < PANELCOUNT) && (panel < g_mapcount); panel++)
    {
        map = random(g_mapcount)
        while (g_mapselected[map])
            map = random(g_mapcount)
        g_mapselected[map] = 1
        g_mapselection[panel] = map
    }
}

public display_maps(id)
{
    new map
    for (new panel; (panel < PANELCOUNT) && (panel < g_mapcount); panel++)
    {
        map = g_mapselection[panel]
        client_print(id, print_console, "%d. %s", panel + 1, g_mapnames[map])
    }
    client_print(id, print_chat, "Check console for the list of selected maps.")
}

I forgot about pre-caching, plus this probably won't even work (not tested).

#include <amxmodx>
#include <amxmisc>
#include <engine>

    register_plugin("Assign maps to panels", "1", "pizzahut")
    read_cfg_file()
    display_maps()
}

read_cfg_file()
{
    new configfile[200]
    get_configsdir(configfile, charsmax(configfile))
    format(configfile, charsmax(configfile), "%s/maps.ini", configfile)
    if (file_exists(configfile))
    {
        new mapname[32], chars_read
        for (new line; (line < file_size(configfile, 1)) && (g_mapcount < MAXNAMES); line++)
        {
            read_file(configfile, line, mapname, charsmax(mapname), chars_read)
            if (is_map_valid(mapname))
            {

                g_mapcount++
            }
        }
    }
    new map
    for (new panel; (panel < PANELCOUNT) && (panel < g_mapcount); panel++)
    {
        map = random(g_mapcount)
        while (g_mapselected[map])
            map = random(g_mapcount)
        g_mapselected[map] = 1
        g_mapselection[panel] = map
    }
}

display_maps()
{
    new ent, panel, ent_info_target, model_path[128]
    new Float:mins[3], Float:maxs[3], Float:origin[3]
    while ((ent = find_ent_by_tname(ent, "glass_votemap")))
    {
        entity_get_vector(ent, EV_VEC_mins, mins)
        entity_get_vector(ent, EV_VEC_maxs, maxs)
        origin[0] = (mins[0] + maxs[0]) / 2.0

        entity_set_model(ent_info_target, model_path)
        panel++
    }
}

From DarthMan:

public plugin_precache()
{
    new conffile_mdl[200]
    new configdir_mdl[200]

    get_configsdir(configdir_mdl,199)
    format(conffile_mdl,199,"%s/mapvote_precache.ini",configdir_mdl)
    if(!file_exists(conffile_mdl))
    {
        log_amx("amxmodx/configs/mapvote_precache.ini is missing!")
        return 0
    }

    new lines = file_size(conffile_mdl,1)
    new file[1024], len
    for(new i=0;i<=lines;i++)
    {
        read_file(conffile_mdl,i,file,1023,len)
        if(equal(file,"")) continue;
        if(!equal(file,";",1)) precache_model(file);
    } 
    return PLUGIN_HANDLED
}

Known bug: May find several panels for a player.

public display_map_name(task_id)
{
    new ent
    new entcount, entlist[32]
    new panel
    while ((ent = find_ent_by_tname(ent, "target_map")))
    {
        entcount = find_sphere_class(ent, "player", 100.0, entlist, sizeof(entlist))
        if (entcount > 0) client_print(0, print_chat, "Found %d players at panel %d.", entcount, panel + 1)
        for(new player_index; player_index < entcount; player_index++)
        {
            set_hudmessage(g_hud_colour[0], g_hud_colour[1], g_hud_colour[2], -1.0, -1.0, 0, 0.0, 0.8, 0.1, 0.1, -1)
            show_hudmessage(entlist[player_index], g_mapnames[g_mapselection[panel]])
        }
        panel++
    }
}

If possible, please no longer post the code here because I would not like the mapvote plugin to be public for everyone to be able to use it on any goldsrc game. Only post if I request something there or if someone else asks for smth related to mapvote.

Then go post somewhere else.

I did not ask here for the things that pizzahut did the last time. Yes, I told him to help me, but the thing is that what I actually asked for was not asked here, he just posted the code because I beleive he thinks thinked that it would be better to post it here for other people in case they want to make something simillar but they don't know how to.

[pizzahut]

It was not asked here, what?
