this is because when an entity is created and parented to another entity, it becomes a "ghost" in some places on the map. I don't know how to adjust

try the new version now bro. I forgot to put this function in CreateTimer

PHP Code:

public Action Timer_CheckGlow(Handle timer, int client)
{
    if(!IsClientInGame(client)) //<- if player is not in game CreateTimer stops working
        return Plugin_Stop;

You should be putting the clients userid into the timer, and getting the client index from the userid to validate it's the same client. See the TUT thread in my sig for details.

- You shouldn't provide the .smx for "l4d2_glow_menu.sp" since it compiles on the forum.
- Your "GetAura" stock is still providing client index to the timer, not userID, and since the timer callback now expects userID you're going to get some unexpected results and errors.
- Timers have a minimum accuracy of 0.1 seconds, 0.001 does nothing. If you want something on the next frame (before 0.1 seconds) use RequestFrame(), although not in this case since they are repeating timers.
- Your timers should "return Plugin_Stop;" if the client is not valid, otherwise you're ending up having loads of timers running for clients that have quit.
- "public" before callbacks that you name yourself are not required. Only from SM or 3rd party plugin forwards.
- "stock" before functions is used to prevent warnings that a function is not being used, only use if the functions are optional and not being used, mostly for include files. No need for them here.
- Instead of "#pragma tabsize 0 //fix warning's tabs" just replace " " 4 spaces with tabs. This will also reduce the filesize, although negligible.
- It's now standard to do "RemoveEntity(FlashLight[client]);" instead of: AcceptEntityInput(FlashLight[client], "Kill");
- Just like timers with client index/userid, when you save entity indexes you should save the reference: "FlashLight[client] = iLight;" should be "FlashLight[client] = EntIndexToEntRef(iLight);" and when you retrieve "FlashLight[client]" you should do "EntRefToEntIndex(FlashLight[client])" and validate the returned value "!= INVALID_ENT_REFERENCE".
- See the TUT thread in my signature for more details about these things.
