What does this do ingame?

This must be basic knowledge for someone who knows how to code but for me i cant even work it out, its like a puzzle. hmmm..does it register id's so you dont have to type the command? instead just the number? idk.

It's the list of game messages (or "events") that ESF has. Basically you can catch when they happen and act accordingly via script (Metamod module/AMXX plugin), you may also change the messages' parameters or block them completely. An example would be "CurWeapon". It is called when something weapon-related happens, like switching attack (e.g. from melee to Kamehameha) where a specific parameter of a message (in this case parameter 2) holds the ID of the current (new) weapon.

Messages can also be seen by writing "meta game" in server's console if Metamod is installed.
