void SetTimer (int * p,int time,void * func)
{
while(*p > 0)
{
wait((time * -1));
}
}
The above code is producing a Script Crash. Additional:
Function Call:
SetTimer (SpeedRun_Time,1,NULL);
Variable:
int * SpeedRun_Time = sys_malloc(sizeof(int));

I'm not sure why it crashes but you don't need: int * SpeedRun_Time = sys_malloc(sizeof(int)); simply using int SpeedRun_Time = 0; works. remember, you only have to use pointers and allocate memory to them if you are initializing somthing which has got a dynamic size (like dynamic array-sizes) or a non-fixed size (like BMAP* or STRING*) inside a functionan int is always 4 bytes big. -> fixed-size -> no need to allocate memory.  (But since I don't know that much about pointers/arrays/memory allocation, someone please correct me if I'm wrong)

[...] becaz I am going to switch between variables by assigning new addresses to it [...] ...I'm sorry but does this make any sense?

Kartoffel, you're right about this point. Yashas, of course you can do it like this, but it very unusual and even does not clearly express what you intend to do. A clearer approach without malloc: To the crash: I do not understand why you post about a script crash but conceal the error message from us. Please note that the while loop while never gets executed as the memory area SpeedRun_Time points to is zero, unless you have intialized it to something else somehwere else.
Always learn from history, to be sure you make the same mistakes again...

well If he uses int * SpeedRun_Time as first parameter in SetTimer isn't p then a pointer to a pointer to an allocated memory block?
Maybe that's the problem...

void SpeedRun_GoGoGo ()
{
BMAP * SpeedRun_TEMP;
int SpeedRun_i = integer(random(6));
int SpeedRun_Row = 1;
int SpeedRun_Trys = 0;
int SpeedRun_Wrong = 0;
SpeedRun_TEMP = SpeedRun_Shapes[SpeedRun_i];
SpeedRun_Previous = SpeedRun_i;
pan_setwindow(SpeedRun_ControlsPlaying,1,200,150,200,200,SpeedRun_TEMP,200,200);
pan_setstring(SpeedRun_ControlsPlaying,4,-100,-100,"",str_create(""));
pan_setbutton(SpeedRun_ControlsPlaying,1,0,-100,-100,bmap_create("button1.tga"),bmap_create("button1.tga"),bmap_create("button1.tga"),NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL);
SpeedRun_Time = 60;
SetTimer (SpeedRun_Time,1,NULL);
while(SpeedRun_Time != 0)
{
if(key_cur)//Same
{
if(SpeedRun_Previous == SpeedRun_i)
{
//Correct
//AddUserXP(2);
SpeedRun_Score += 5 * SpeedRun_Row;
SpeedRun_Row++;
}
else
{
//Wrong
}
}
else if (key_cul) //Not Same
{
if(SpeedRun_Previous == SpeedRun_i)
{
//Wrong
}
else
{
//Correct
}
}
wait(1);
}
}
The complete code which will help understand better. And SpeedRun_Time is initialized with a value. The Error is "Script Crash in SetTimer" and then Windows notifies "acknex.exe has stopped working...".

you wrote [\code] instead of [/code]  and if it says 'Crash in (function name)' have a look at the lines before this function gets called. It often says Crash in... but the mistake is in some of the previous lines of code.

That is wrong. SpeedRun_Time is a pointer. You write the address 60 to that pointer. What you intended to do was setting the integer value SpeedRun_Time was pointing to, right?
