[hlcoders] Sample code for comparing lots of strings

[hlcoders] Annoying problem with setting deaths on client using 'retry'

Hi, I am trying to get my plugin to remember players money, frags and deaths over a retry. I can set the money and frags without any issue, but even though I store the deaths and update the deaths at the same time as the frags, the deaths always remain at 0. Here is my snippet of code for setting
