RegisterHam(Ham_TakeDamage, "player", "player_hurt_pre", 1)

as you can see, i hooked Ham_TakeDamage
when this fires and my condition to block the event from continuing its normal proces is met i return HAM_SUPERCEDE.

Unfortunatly this doesnt work and damage still goes through and the player still hits his target.
I need a full stop, how could i do that?

/**

native EnableHamForward(HamHook:fwd);

You can't stop a function when you hook it as post (like you are doing). You have to hook it as a prehook (aka post=0 or omit the last argument). So, if you hook it correctly, HAM_SUPERCEDE will work.

He doesn't want to disable the forward, he wants to act on the event.

Well i thought about that because of the last sentence:

To be honest i don't really understand what he is trying to explain.

When someone is taking damage, he is checking to see if he wants the damage to actually be inflicted on that person. So, for example, if you wanted to make someone invincible, you would check if the person that is taking damage is that person. If yes, then you supercede the event so that they don't take any damage.

This is wrong : RegisterHam(Ham_TakeDamage, "player", "player_hurt_pre", 1)

Already stated by fysiks but you may understand better like this :


RegisterHam(Ham_TakeDamage, "player", "player_hurt_pre", 0) <- you can stop this one because you hook it before it is executed


RegisterHam(Ham_TakeDamage, "player", "player_hurt_post", 1) <- you can't stop this one because you hook it after it has been executed

Its funny. Reading it late last night it didn't make any sense but today after sleeping the first post makes sense to me when reading it again now.

Thats exactly what i tried to explain .
Thanks for pointing out that i need to use 0 for pre and 1 for post, the discription sais the exact opposite .

Why do people always think that? 0 means false and 1 means true. Therefore by putting 0, you are saying to NOT hook it as post.

The description is correct :

* @param post Whether or not to forward this in post. native HamHook:RegisterHam(Ham:function, const EntityClass[], const Callback[], Post=0);
