limit hero effects to players with >= hero's level

genkernel · **Author**

I am looking for a way to get a players level. So I can do a check and see if that player is greater than or equal to the hero's level.

heres the basic logic I would need

Code:

if (playerslevel >= heroslevel) {
     //do hero stuff to player
}
//else ignore this player

umm... i may not be following you, but why would you need that? if the player has picked the hero it is obviously equal to or greater than...

put it in this context

HeroA is a automatic defense hero.

Player B has picked HeroA

Player A attacks Player B

I only want HeroA to effect Players that are equal to or higher level than HeroA's level.

Maybe thats clears it up.

ahh... ok i follow you know. lets use a real example to double check that i follow.

I am level 20
You are level 10
I pick poison ivy
I shoot you
It doesn't affect you
Is that correct?

Set this as a Global Variable

Code:

new gPlayerLevels[SH_MAXSLOTS+1]

Set this to get run in the plugin_init so it runs function heroname_levels to check the levels (change heroname to your heroes name)

Code:

	// LEVELS
	register_srvcmd("heroname_levels", "heroname_levels")
	shRegLevels(gHeroName,"heroname_levels")

Set this as a function in the code to obtain a players levels (change heroname to your heroes name)

Code:

public heroname_levels()
{
	new id[5]
	new lev[5]

	read_argv(1,id,4)
	read_argv(2,lev,4)

	gPlayerLevels[str_to_num(id)] = str_to_num(lev)
}

gPlayerLevels[id] now equals the ids level

and to change your code above to: (change heroname to your heroes cvar name)

Code:

	if ( gPlayerLevels[id] >= get_cvar_num("heroname_level")) { 
     	//do hero stuff to player 
	} 
	//you dont need an else if you aren't doing anything on it
