How to implement this on sourcemod?

ES code

es.server.queuecmd('es_xfire %s game_weapon_manager AddOutput "maxpieces 0"' % es.getuserid())

Hi

[Kevin_b_er]

Technically the ES thing appears to be a way to unflag cheats on ent_fire, fake a client command of 'ent_fire [userid] game_weapon_manager AddOutput "maxpieces 0"'

There's no builtin for unflagging the cheat, executing the command in the client's context, then reflagging cheat. There's FakeClientCommand for faking a command like ent_fire, but its protected by sv_cheats. So again, you'd have to take off the cheat flag, then put it back.

Alternatively something like this is probably much safer for this case.
game_weapon_manager is an entity that lives on the map, and the ent_fire command you're trying to do is to add an output of "maxpieces 0" to it. So lets do this directly.

PHP Code:

new ent = -1
if ((ent = FindEntityByClassname(ent, "game_weapon_manager")) > -1)
    {
    SetVariantString("maxpieces 0");
    AcceptEntityInput(ent, "AddOutput");
    } 


Notes:
* Safer method courtesy of some example code written by BAILOPAN.
* Untested, scripter beware.

Thank you!

P.S. Ofcourse i want to do it directly, not with cheats and ent_fire clientid
I just do not know how to dial with AddOutput and other entity manipulation commands (
But thanks for the explanation, i was not ever thinking of ent_fire.

P.P.S. I've used search forum before asking and was found various solutions to make AddOutput, but trying only one of them, it did not working, i'm felling unlucky
I was trying DispatchKeyValue(ent, "maxpieces", "0"); and it did not work. And that is why i was trying it - http://forums.alliedmods.net/showpos...98&postcount=4
I was found in forum that DispatchKeyValue and SetVariantString + AcceptEntityInput is the same thing and only trying first one )
But i did not expect (somehow 0_o) that DispatchKeyValue works only on creating or spawning new entities ))
And it realy is - http://forums.alliedmods.net/showpos...83&postcount=4
Thanks again for the help!

Just do not work

new ent = -1; if ( (ent = FindEntityByClassname(ent, "game_weapon_manager")) == -1 ) { ent = CreateEntityByName("game_weapon_manager"); DispatchSpawn(ent); } SetVariantString("maxpieces 0"); AcceptEntityInput(ent, "AddOutput"); LogError("game_weapon_manager = %i", ent);

every round start it creates new entity, but dropped weapons are not removed
L 12/27/2009 - 14:50:29: [test.smx] game_weapon_manager = 87
L 12/27/2009 - 14:50:41: [test.smx] game_weapon_manager = 149
L 12/27/2009 - 14:51:04: [test.smx] game_weapon_manager = 154

Why are you creating a new entity when you could just use the input on the already existing one? I think you might be confusing the game's logic with more than one entity.

Actualy FindEntityByClassname(ent, "game_weapon_manager") returns -1; I have If statement, and if this entity exists, then i'm not creating anothe one. Just take a look at the if statement once again )

The first issue is that entity does not exist
The second issue is that after creating such entity i can not change it's property (or it does not take an effect).

Ah, I read that as != instead of == (still sleepy I suppose). Why is it printing three different game_weapon_managers then?

I think the this is because of sourcemod can not find such entity and it just creates another one.

But i can not fugure it out why it can not find this enitity.

Or maybe this entity just drops after round start/end...

I will note that the valve developer wiki says that game_weapon_manager should only exist once in a map, and that extra copies of this entity type may cause errors.

So if this entity exists more than once, there could be errors involved.
