Here's a bit of code you can stick in any plugin to make players ragdolls dissolve on death.

Tested and working in
● Team Fortress 2 (though I'm sure this will work in other games such as DoD:S, L4D, L4D2, CS:S)

Known bugs with this code
● [TF2] When playing as a Spy using the Dead Ringer, when you feign death, your fake corpse doesn't dissolve. (I'm not exactly sure how to fix this, so if someone could help me out, that'd be swell)

Here's what the effect looks like ingame (TF2). The dissolving uses the effect from Half Life 2 for when you dissolve someone using those energy ball things.

PHP Code:

public OnPluginStart()
{
    HookEvent("player_death", Event_PlayerDeathPost, EventHookMode_Post);
}


public Action:Event_PlayerDeathPost(Handle:event, const String:name[], bool:dontBroadcast)
{
    new victim = GetClientOfUserId(GetEventInt(event, "userid"));

    if (IsValidEntity(victim))
    {
        CreateTimer(0.1, Timer_DissolveRagdoll, any:victim);
    }
    return Plugin_Continue;
}


public Action:Timer_DissolveRagdoll(Handle:timer, any:victim)
{
    new ragdoll = GetEntPropEnt(victim, Prop_Send, "m_hRagdoll");

    if (ragdoll != -1)
    {
        DissolveRagdoll(ragdoll);
    }
}


DissolveRagdoll(ragdoll)
{
    new dissolver = CreateEntityByName("env_entity_dissolver");

    if (dissolver == -1)
    {
        return;
    }

    DispatchKeyValue(dissolver, "dissolvetype", "0");
    DispatchKeyValue(dissolver, "magnitude", "1");
    DispatchKeyValue(dissolver, "target", "!activator");

    AcceptEntityInput(dissolver, "Dissolve", ragdoll);
    AcceptEntityInput(dissolver, "Kill");

    return;
}

^-- No. Just no.

This code isn't from his plugin.

Its not a PHP code its a actual code for a plugin that you can develop.

So apparently we now have team-colored dissolving on weapons like the Righteous Bison, Cow Mangler 5000 and that new Engi weapon...uh...Short Circuit, I think.

Does anyone know how to change this dissolving code to use the team-colored dissolving?

Probably set the dissolvetype to something else. Or set the death event's damagecustom to something.

This code looks awfully familiar.

Also, instead of passing victim in the timer, you should pass GetEventInt(event, "userid") and then within the Timer_DissolveRagdoll, client = GetClientOfUserId(userid), check if the client's valid and not 0, and then do the rest of the stuff.

[psychonic]

Have you tried just changing the dissolver's m_iTeamNum ?

[FlaminSarge]

Doesn't seem to have any effect.

It should look familiar. It's from your Give Weapon plugin.

I actually took the code from your plugin and turned it into it's own plugin.

However, as I stated above, Dead Ringer Spies are left wide open because their fake corpses don't dissolve and I can't figure out how to make that work.
