Alternative Dialogs

These dialogs have nearly all of the functions that the default dialogs have, but they can be used together.
The new design drawn via textdraws, it will radically change the interface of your server.

How do they look

AD_STYLE_LIST / SKINS

To choose any of the available skins, just write the following before connecting the include:

#define AD_SKIN_1 //1 - ID of the skin

How to install

Simply install to your project:

sampctl package install NexiusTailer/Alternative-Dialogs

Include in your code and begin using the library:

#include <alt_dialogs>

Functions

• ShowPlayerAltDialog(playerid, dialogid, style, caption[], info[], button1[], button2[] = "")
  Use to show the dialog for a player
• OnAltDialogResponse(playerid, dialogid, response, listitem)
  Called when a player “response” on the dialog
• GetPlayerAltDialog(playerid)
  Use to get a player’s current dialog ID

Usage example

public OnPlayerCommandText(playerid, cmdtext[])
{
    if(!strcmp("/wdialog", cmdtext, true)) return cmd_wdialog(playerid);
    return 0;
}
forward cmd_wdialog(playerid);
public cmd_wdialog(playerid)
{
    ShowPlayerAltDialog(playerid, 0, AD_STYLE_LIST, "Weapons", "AK47\nM4\nSniper Rifle", "Ok", "Cancel");
    return 1;
}
public OnAltDialogResponse(playerid, dialogid, response, listitem)
{
    if(dialogid == 0)
    {
        if(response == 1)
        {
            switch(listitem)
            {
                case 0: GivePlayerWeapon(playerid, 30, 100);
                case 1: GivePlayerWeapon(playerid, 31, 100);
                case 2: GivePlayerWeapon(playerid, 34, 50);
            }
            return 1;
        }
    }
    return 0;
}
