native
precache_event
Syntax
native precache_event(type, const Name[], any:...);
Description
Precaches an event file.
Parameters
| type | Event type |
|---|---|
| Name | Formatting rules, path to the event file |
| ... | Variable number of formatting parameters |
Note
The event type should always be 1.
Note
Contrary to the other precache_* natives, this can be used outside of
the plugin_precache() forward, e.g. in plugin_init() or plugin_cfg().
A bug in some clients makes this necessary, as plugin_precache() is
called before the mod has precached its own, default event files. This
can cause the event table to be misaligned on the client, leading to
visual and audio bugs that are hard to diagnose.
Return
Unique cache id of the event
