[Pawn] [Help] warning 239: literal array/string passed to a non-const parameter

[Behemoth]

Trying to do this

Code:

return SetTimerEx("KickTimer", 100, false, "i", playerid);

but it's for some reason giving me the warning above (again, only an issue in the new compiler). What am I doing wrong and again can someone tell the best way to write this?

Well, I've fixed it... I don't know why this removes the warning, but it works so I guess that's all that matters. If someone could explain why this works instead of the original method, I'd appreciate that.

Code:

    new
        timer[12], int[12];
    format(timer, sizeof(timer), "KickTimer");
    format(int, sizeof(int), "i");
    SetTimerEx(timer, 100, false, int, playerid);
    return 1;

You're using the old includes.

Or disable them. (Not recommended)
