Legacy track. The PAWN API is supported but no longer actively developed — the last PAWN additions shipped in SDK 6.2. New development uses the C++ (WebAssembly) API.

SDK 6.3 · PAWN / Network

Pawn works with cells which has a size of 4 bytes. Native interfaces handling generic data like network messages have size limits for that data. If application does not need to work with a large numbers, several values can be packed into a single cell. This library provides some convenient functions to pack and unpack such values from array of cells which can be broadcasted over network by core functions.
