For those of you who have been reading the superhero forum under scripting help, you would know that I can't receive anymore help from the forum because of where I come from. And I know that might sound a lil vague so I'll show you a link: http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=34315

Anyways I need help and plenty of it when it comes to entities. Right now I'm making a hero that has a disk that hurts people!. And you are able to guide where the disk is going just by aiming somewhere else!! Although that part has not been implemented, the test server that I test on keeps crashing when I use it. When I compile it, it gives me 4 warnings, all tag mismatches. They are on line 142, 148, 151, and 175. If anyone knows how to fix those please reply. Here is the code:

Code:
//Cell #include <amxmod.inc> #include <superheromod.inc> #include <engine.inc> #include <Vexd_Utilities.inc> #include <amxmisc.inc> #include <xtrafun.inc> new gHeroName[] = "Cell" new bool:g_hasCellPowers[SH_MAXSLOTS+1] new diskTimer[SH_MAXSLOTS+1] //This variable will represent the disk being made. new NewEnt //------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ public plugin_init() {     register_plugin("SUPERHERO Cell", "1.0", "Gorlag/Batman")     //THE CVARS     register_cvar("cell_level", "4")     register_cvar("cell_damage", "75")     register_cvar("cell_radius", "50")         register_cvar("cell_cooldown", "50")         register_cvar("cell_diskspeed", "750")     register_cvar("cell_disklife", "5")         register_cvar("cell_blastdecal", "1")     //THIS LINE MAKES THE HERO SELECTABLE         shCreateHero(gHeroName, "Energy Disk", "Unleash an energy disk and take control of where it flies!", true, "cell_level")     //INITIAL ACTIONS     register_srvcmd("cell_init", "cell_init")     shRegHeroInit(gHeroName, "cell_init")         //KEY DOWN COMMAND     register_srvcmd("cell_kd", "cell_kd")     shRegKeyDown(gHeroName, "cell_kd")     //SPAWNING EVENT     register_event("ResetHUD", "newSpawn", "b")     //SET THE LIFE OF THE DISK     set_task(1.0, "cell_disklife", 0, "", 0, "b")     for(new id = 1; id <= SH_MAXSLOTS; id++)         diskTimer[id] = -1 } //-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- public plugin_precache() {     precache_model("models/shmod/friezadisc.mdl")     //boom = precache_model("sprites/zerogxplode.spr") } //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- public cell_init() {     new temp[6] //To store temporary information     //First Argument is the id of the player     read_argv(1,temp,5) //Converts the string to a number     new id = str_to_num(temp)     //Second Argument is either 0 or 1 depending on whether the person has the hero or not     read_argv(2,temp,5)     new hasPowers = str_to_num(temp) //Makes the string into a number     g_hasCellPowers[id] = (hasPowers != 0)     if(!hasPowers && diskTimer[id] > 0){         diskTimer[id] = -1         remove_entity(NewEnt)     } } //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- public cell_kd() {     if(!hasRoundStarted()) return     new temp[6]     //Get the id of the player     read_argv(1,temp,5)     new id = str_to_num(temp)     if(!is_user_alive(id) || !g_hasCellPowers[id] || gPlayerUltimateUsed[id]) return     if(gPlayerUltimateUsed[id]){         playSoundDenySelect(id)         return     }     diskTimer[id] = get_cvar_num("cell_disklife")     fire_disk(id)     if(get_cvar_float("cell_cooldown") > 0.0)         ultimateTimer(id, get_cvar_float("cell_cooldown")) } //---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- public newSpawn(id) {     gPlayerUltimateUsed[id] = false  //Makes you able to use power again } //---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- public cell_disklife(){     for(new id = 1; id <= SH_MAXSLOTS; id++){         if(g_hasCellPowers[id] && is_user_alive(id)){             if(diskTimer[id] > 0){                 diskTimer[id]--             }             else{                 remove_entity(NewEnt)                 diskTimer[id]--             }         }     } } //---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- public fire_disk(id) {     //Makes an array of origin in the (x,y,z) coordinate system.     new origin[3]     //Makes an array of velocity, specifically in the (x,y,z) coordinate system     new velocity[3]     get_user_origin(id, origin, 0)     create_disk(id, origin, velocity) } //---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- public create_disk(id, origin[3], velocity[3]) {     NewEnt = CreateEntity("info_target")  //Makes an object     entity_set_string(NewEnt, EV_SZ_classname, "cell_disk_ent")     //This tells what the object will look like     ENT_SetModel(NewEnt, "models/shmod/friezadisc.mdl")     //This will set the origin of the entity     entity_set_vector(NewEnt, EV_VEC_origin, origin)     //This will set the movetype of the entity     entity_set_int(NewEnt,EV_INT_movetype, MOVETYPE_FLY)     //This will set the velocity of the entity     velocity_by_aim(NewEnt, get_cvar_num("cell_maxspeed"), velocity)     //This will set the entity in motion     entity_set_vector(NewEnt, EV_VEC_velocity, velocity) } //----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- public pfn_touch(ptr, ptd)  //ptr is the toucher, and ptd is the touched!

P.S. Whats up with this weird indentation, when I post the small file I've been working on?
