Use a macro for all of these.

Good suggestion

Code: Select all

stock esf_set_ki( index, value )
{
    set_pev( id, pev_fuser4, float( value ) );
}

Here is an example on how to do a macro:

Code: Select all

#define esf_set_ki(%1,%2) set_pev( %1, pev_fuser4, float( %2 ) )

About ESF class. Why you use code from ECX? Why not just..:

Code: Select all

enum
{
        CLASS_NONE,
 
        CLASS_BUU,
        CLASS_GOKU,
        CLASS_GOHAN,
        CLASS_KRILLIN,
        CLASS_FRIEZA,
        CLASS_PICCOLO,
        CLASS_TRUNKS,
        CLASS_VEGETA,
        CLASS_CELL
};
 
#define esf_get_player_class(%1) return pev(%1, pev_playerclass);
 
/*
// Usage
// If/else
new iClass = esf_get_player_class(iClient);
 
if (iClass == CLASS_NONE)
{
        // Player is spectator/unassigned
}
else if (iClass == CLASS_VEGETA)
{
        // Player is Vegeta
}
 
// Switch
switch (esf_get_player_class(iClient))
{
        case CLASS_NONE: return;
        case CLASS_GOKU, CLASS_GOHAN, CLASS_TRUNKS, CLASS_VEGETA:
        {
                // Player is a saiyan
        }
 
        default:
        {
                // Player is not a saiyan
        }
}

get_user_team() already works, I just want it to return 1 for Good, 2 for Evil, or 0/-1 for FFA. get_user_team() only returns 9 for the team ID.

Code: Select all

stock esf_get_team(id)
{
    new szTeamName[6]
    get_user_team(id, szTeamName, 5)

    if (equal(szTeamName, "Good"))
        return 1

    else if (equal(szTeamName, "Evil"))
        return 2

    else
        return 0
}

Also, use stocks instead of macros. With a macro, a new stack allocation is made for each use of the macro, cluttering up DAT and using precious resources.

Macros are replaced at compile, so there is no reason not to use them (at least from what I understand of it).

There isn't "each use of macro". A macro is a rule for text replacement applied before compiling. A way of avoid a function call.

Will get_user_team always return 9? If it does not and returns unique numbers you could just remap it - returning 1 if get_user_team is 9, 2 if it is 8 (or whatever).

If this does not apply I would use this instead of full string comparison (assuming that those are unique):

Code: Select all

stock esf_get_team(id) 
{     
    new szTeamName[2]     
    get_user_team(id, szTeamName, 1)      

if( szTeamName[0] == 'G' )         
    return 1      

else if( szTeamName[0] == 'E' )        
    return 2      

else        
    return 0 
}

Yeah, but look at this quote from dev log:

We noticed that the DAT section is not optimized. You can repeat a string a 800 times and the DAT section will have an entry for each repetition. The solution?
Code: Select all
//BAD
#define COMMON_STRING   "Gaben"
//GOOD
new COMMON_STRING[] = "Gaben"
This way, DAT will only have one reference. Furthermore, it might even be faster because in the case of non-const the compiler won’t have to copy it into the heap first. In many cases you know it will never be modified, and the native declaration simply forgot a ‘const’ keyword.
Another example:
Code: Select all
//BAD
stock GetWeaponName(id, name[], max)
{
   if (id==0)
      copy(name, max, "weapon_none")
   else if (id==1)
      copy(name, max, "weapon_gaben")
   //....
}
//GOOD
new g_WeaponNames[] = {
     "weapon_none", //0
    "weapon_gaben", //1
}
A lookup table is near-instantaneous execution. The compiler simply has to add an integer to a base memory offset. Calling a function is expensive — branch prediction, cache misses, more instructions can add up very quickly. If you’re using the function very often, it’s a good idea to take the time to make these trivial and worth-while optimizations. You can do lookup tables in Small for anything which inputs an integer and outputs any other data type, as long as the set of inputs has fixed limits. It is okay to build the lookup table at runtime, as long as you don’t need to do it often (or building it often outweighs the cost of computing entries totally dynamically).

I was shocked at how unoptimized the Pawn compiler is.

I thought it's for strings only. So I shall not use const even if I'm not planing changing my variable?

Is it? Beats me. I'd still avoid macros anyway.
