And if im going to add save XP later, it cant reset all stuff on connect?

Well, it's true that the compiler initializes variables to 0 (which is CLASS_NOTHING in your case), but imagine this situation:

1)A player connects, the engine gives him id 1
2)An other player connects, the engine gives him id 2
3)Player with id 1 kills player with id 2, thus he has some XP now
4)Player with id 1 leaves
5)An other player connects, and gets id 1 again. Now the plugin thinks that this player already has some XP


BTW: Your DoChooseAnimal function is weird =P

Hmm...
Thats a problem, yes...

This is just the "base" of a XP plugin.
People can add that stuff on client_connect if they want to.

I'll maybe add save XP later, and then I'll try to solve that problem.

Btw PM do you know a lot of saving XP and that stuff?
I dont know much about saving XP (almost nothing really )

Btw: If ur going to help, send me a PM with the code this time.

To save XP, you could use one of the following methods:
1) Vault (either the old one, or the new one, or Twilight Suzuka's one)
2) MySQL
3) Writing to a file

I myself would support the new vault and mysql.

Thanx man, definetitaly (sp? lol) worth reading through (I read most of it lol) and learning. Quick question though: why are you using cvars instead of just regular script vars for all that stuff?

I know the methods I can save XP with, its just how to code it?
I dont know what commands to use, how to use em, and where to place em.

Because then you can change "XP per kill" easy, instead of editing the script.

The problem is that I dont really know how to save XP yet.

If you readed thru the topic you would see that I asked PM for help.

Something I noticed:

//Add keys for how many classes you have. In our case 5.(4 animals + exit) (Not 6, since "CLASS_NOTHING" doesnt count) 
//Remeber at it starts at 0, and not 1 
new keys = MENU_KEY_0|MENU_KEY_1|MENU_KEY_2|MENU_KEY_3

That isn't true. MENU_KEY_0 is actually the 0 key, and MENU_KEY_1 is actually the 1 key. This will only let users pick 1, 2, 3, and 0, thus crippling Cow lovers. Also, even using your logic, this wouldn't let players pick Exit. You need this:

new keys = MENU_KEY_1|MENU_KEY_2|MENU_KEY_3|MENU_KEY_4|MENU_KEY_0;

That whole "starts at 0" thing is only in the function that handles menu input.

I do it in my way and it works for me.
