Problems with organizing the API for developers

[receiver1]

Hello! I'm starting to write plugins on metamod-r and a problem arises of lack of information. I don’t understand anything, the code is a complete mess of includes and global variables. I would like to suggest somehow organizing an adequate API SDK for developers. Yes, I understand that the game is old, the server is old and there are a lot of crutches there. But I am still convinced that it is possible. As an example, you can take SAMPFUNCS, which has a very concise and understandable interface: https://www.blast.hk/threads/23410/

Same. There is a example_plugin project in the code but the include necessary is virtually a black box. I tried to track down where each file actually comes from (hlsdk? rehlds? regamedll? etc) and use the most up to date file for each, but it's been a nightmare to compile a "stub" plugin, a place from where you can start developing plugins from scratch with minimal and updated includes. This is probably something really stupid for people here from the get go, but it really is very confusing.
@receiver1 did you ever get somewhere with this?
