Macros like charsmax are slower when you know the max len. And so sizeof.

PHP Code:

new name[ 32 ];

// faster
get_user_name( index, name, 31 );

// less faster
get_user_name( index, name, sizeof name - 1 );

// quite slow
get_user_name( index, name, charsmax( name ) );

Absolutely wrong, macros are replace in compilation time, so if you could look at the final script, after the compiler has preprocessed it, you'd see all the instances of charsmax would be replace with the actual numbers.

Several tests have been made on this by a friend of mine and he got to this conclusion.
And no, that friend of mine won't lie or say stupid things.

Apparently you don't know him so well.

What ever, let's say you're right

#include <amxmodx>

    for(new i=0; i < 16; i++)
    {
        iLen += formatex(szTemp[iLen], charsmax(szTemp) - iLen, "%s%s", szTemp, szString)
    }

0 natives, 0 public callbacks, 1 function calls were not executed.

format() is actually slower, but not as near as slow as Hawk painted it.

Seems like a neglibile difference for me, considering this test is a very unrealistic situation, it's very very rare for a plugin to need to format 512 times in a row.

PS: thanks to connor for finding out why the profiler wasn't working, and for running the test.

With buy_vote what all can they do?

I mean, can they do stuff like vote_ban, vote_kick, vote_slap, etc. Or is it just making custom votes?

[M1R0n,M']

custom vote, amx_votemap , amx_vote,and will be able to do what the plugin allow to do with that flag
