as u see, that is one bit bool. why is it just 1 bit, only bool?

the answer is, radar system of css.

if someone is your team, u can see him on rader regardless of some other teammate is able to spot him or not.
but, if u are not teammate, u cannot see someone is not in spottabl position from any of your teammate
but, if any of teammates able to spot that enemy, all of your team will able to see him. that is why that infomation is only bool, not something like bitflags or...

but all of these rules are accepted until u are alive.
if u are dead, opserver setting of server will determind whom will be spoted in your radar.

anyway, to set this, simply u can do this.


public OnMapStart(){
//테스트코드
new PMIndex = FindEntityByClassname(0, "cs_player_manager");
SDKHook(PMIndex, SDKHook_ThinkPost, OnThinkPost);

}


public OnThinkPost(entity)
{
//테스트코드
//모든 플레이어를 레이더에 잡히게 한다
new minimapoffset = FindSendPropOffs("CCSPlayerResource", "m_bPlayerSpotted");

for(new target = 1; target < 65; target++){

SetEntData(entity, minimapoffset + target, true, 4, true);

}

SetEntData(entity, FindSendPropOffs("CCSPlayerResource", "m_bBombSpotted"), true, 4, true);

}
this code will make everyone on server to see each other in radar.

if u want to set this not all, per client, should do like this:


public OnThinkPost(entity)
{
//테스트코드
//모든 플레이어를 레이더에 잡히게 한다
new minimapoffset = FindSendPropOffs("CCSPlayerResource", "m_bPlayerSpotted");

for(new target = 1; target <= MaxClients; target++){

for(new client = 1; client <= MaxClients; client++){

if(ditectedbysensor[client][target]){

SetEntData(entity, minimapoffset + target, true, 4, true);

}

}

}

//always spot the c4 for cts.
SetEntData(entity, FindSendPropOffs("CCSPlayerResource", "m_bBombSpotted"), true, 4, true);

}
have fun with this! hahaha

##many guys talked on this thread and someguys uploaded nice research result.
thanks for em and i am writing some of that results on top of the thread to let other guys easy to see it




Just for information, since the orange box update it's possible in CS:S to hide the radar completely for players serverside:


/**
* Sets the Hud flags of a client
*
* @param client Client index.
* @param flags Flag to set, use one of the HIDEHUD_ hiding constants
* @noreturn
*/
stock Client_SetHud(client, flags) {

SetEntProp(client, Prop_Send, "m_iHideHUD", flags);
}

public OnClientPutInServer(client) {

Client_SetHud(client, ( 1<<4 ));
}


This should be executed every spawn, because if the player spawns after it has been set on him the radar will show up again, and.. When this is on you can't change weapon, don't know why.. But i used this code to test it.

#include <sourcemod>
#pragma semicolon 1

public OnPluginStart()
{
RegConsoleCmd("sm_hideradar", hide, "Will hide the clients radar");
}

public Action:hide(client, args)
{
Client_SetHud(client, ( 1<<3 ));
}

stock Client_SetHud(client, flags)
{
SetEntProp(client, Prop_Send, "m_iHideHUD", flags);
}

very nice

[Peace-Maker]

That's nice to know.
I'm reversing it to not show anyone in radar to use in hide and seek:)

Thank you!

[berni]

Why not just disable the radar completely then ?

[Peace-Maker]

It's not showing, when setting all to false, but how would you disable radar completely via plugin?

[javalia]

Why not just disable the radar completely then ?
u cannot make radar to not visible on client cuz convar of radar for client is not editable on server side.
client should disable it in manually before game.
so instead of forcing clients to set that cvar before game, editing serverside radar is more easy for player

[javalia]

and i were found this method to make some clients to show in radar, more than not show someone. so it was not so helpful to me radar disable of client side.
i were used this method to sensor of tactical gun mod can show spotted enemy on radar of sensor`s owner`s team

[javalia]

in example :
if someone is in cloak mod, he will never able to spotted in radar!

I can't get this to work :oops:, need this for a CS:S FFA server.

[berni]

are you asking for help ? or was this just an information.
I'm sorry, I don't really have the time and mood for random guessing.
more info maybe ?

[FireAnt]

I have compiled the code without errors and the plugin loads and show no errors in the logg. The server is running latest stable SM, MM and Balis CSS DM and SDK Hooks. I still se my teammates in the radar.

stock Client_SetHud(client, flags) {

SetEntProp(client, Prop_Send, "m_iHideHUD", flags);
}

public OnClientPutInServer(client) {

Client_SetHud(client, ( 1<<4 ));
}

i think u should do that on every respawn of user.
from it will maybe resetted on respawn.

[Peace-Maker]

I got the problem, that players weren't able to change weapons when hiding the radar that way. It's still also buggy to set the m_bPlayerSpotted props to 0 for all players on PreThink, PostThink. Players sometimes still appear for a short time. I've been messing around with it a lot while writing hide and seek. If someone finds a better solution, please share!

as i said on top of thread, u should hook postthink of player manage entity like this on map start

public OnMapStart(){

new PMIndex = FindEntityByClassname(0, "cs_player_manager");
SDKHook(PMIndex, SDKHook_ThinkPost, OnThinkPost);

}

cuz css will send radar data after it`s think(not sure but in other kind of think hook, it was not work correctly)

Ok, I've tested it out on my test server, you need to delay it a little bit,
because the radar seems to get reset after spawning, here is working code to hide the radar with the hidehud property:


public OnPluginStart() {
HookEvent("player_spawn", Event_PlayerSpawn);
}

public Action:Event_PlayerSpawn(Handle:event,const String:name[],bool:dontBroadcast) {

new client = GetClientOfUserId(GetEventInt(event, "userid"));
CreateTimer(0.1, PlayerSpawn_Delayed, client);

return Plugin_Continue;
}

public Action:PlayerSpawn_Delayed(Handle:timer, any:client) {

Client_SetHud(client, 1<<4);

return Plugin_Stop;
}


Credit me, when you use this ;)

[Peace-Maker]

Well, i am unable to change weapons when using your method berni.
It also hides health/kevlar and ammo showings.

[KawMAN]

Try to block "UpdateRadar" usermessage

[javalia]

Try to block "UpdateRadar" usermessage
your idea is good and i think it will work, althrough i didnt tested it.

[MoshMage]

anyway, would anyone make a "plugin" for those of us who aren't that familiar with coding and whatsoever? :)

or hasn't anyone come to any conclusion?

I read somewhere that BAIL set the radar to scramble IF cssdm and ffa = 1 on server start?

well, i am not thinking to make some other plugins that using this code,
but if u ask about some conclusion, i will show u my tacticalgunmod,
when sensor detects other enemy in the map, it will let u see them in minimap,
and if enemy is cloacked and is not detected by sensor, they will not even exist in minimap. this is what i made for my plugin. so, i believe other guys can use this way, and it is perfectly working

[Peace-Maker]

}

cuz css will send radar data after it`s think(not sure but in other kind of think hook, it was not work correctly)

Using this method and setting the bPlayerSpotted offsets all to 0 still shows all players on radar. I also noticed a difference in hiding bots and real players.

I already tried blocking the UpdateRadar message, but i'm unable to do it in sourcepawn itself. The message get's through anyways. Maybe one need some kind of extension?

[Seta00]

You should hook player PreThink, otherwise you'll get many visual glitches on the radar.

[Wiskyjim]

How hide the position of teammates?
Make a example for the gametype DM-FFA.

You can try this plugin I made when testing this a while ago. If it works then I'll post it in the plugin section. Requires SDKHooks.

Edit: Plugin Posted (http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=1471473)

[Wiskyjim]

The value 0 and 2 works fine, but the value 1 shows me still teammates.

[GoD-Tony]

Ok, maybe I'll play around with it later to see if I can get it working.

[Peace-Maker]

You can't hide teammates from the radar using the m_bPlayerSpotted property. Since they are in the same team as you, they're shown anyway. You may try to set everyones m_iTeam to 1 or similar in PostThink. Don't know if that will change anything though;)

[GoD-Tony]

I noticed that the radar is hidden while a player is flashed and he can still change his weapons. I also noticed that the client's m_iHideHUD property isn't changed whether he is flashed or not, so it must be something else triggering it.

To hide radar: Simulate a long flashbang with 0 alpha (no whitescreen).

Example: http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=1471473

[Peace-Maker]

Nice find!

[klausenbusk]

Is it possible to make such all CT can see all T, but T can only see all T?

[Peace-Maker]

Sure, since teammates are always on your radar, you only have to set m_bPlayerSpotted to 1 for all Ts.

Does anyone know of a way to change the way a player is displayed to other players on the radar? For example lets say I want to have a given ct player show up as a gold star or something to the rest of his team only.

No, i dont think so.
I have already tried to do something like that, and I got nothing.

[morion]

Is there a way to change the default radar icon for a dropped bomb. I tried just changing it server site. I believe it is located at "orangebox/cstrike/materials/sprites/bomb_dropped.vtf" but nothing happened. Or has this to be changed client side as well.

[zeroibis]

Read above it appears that none of us have found a way to edit the images themselves just if you can see them. I would bet that it is a client side file and we can not do anything to it :(

[Experto]

How do I get anyone as a spectator or dead, do not see the radar?

I tried using the code posted by Berni,
however, when a person dies or is a spectator
the radar remains

[Mitchell]

Did this die?

Very easy and maybe useful to someone.

new Handle:mp_forcecamera = INVALID_HANDLE;
public OnPluginStart()
{
if((mp_forcecamera = FindConVar("mp_forcecamera")) == INVALID_HANDLE)
{
SetFailState("Convar mp_forcecamera not found");
}
}

public OnClientPutInServer(client)
{
if(!IsFakeClient(client))
{
SendConVarValue(client, mp_forcecamera, "1");
}
}
What this do ?
- Set to players convar mp_forcecamera to 1 when joined server, even server mp_forcecamera is 0.
- This however not prevent players to spectate other team like in real mp_forcecamera 1 mode.
- Radar still work like mp_forcecamera 1 mode, dead players see only teammates in radar, enemies hidden.
*edit
when ever change server mp_forcecamera value, also players cvar change, disabling this trick. Player need re-connect.

*edit
mp_forcecamera "2" hide both teams on radar when dead

Hello,

As would have to be for that only X persons can view all enemies in radar? for example only admins can view all enemies in radar

I tried several ways but I have not achieved this :(

someone would know how?

Just edit the loop and make it check if the target is a admin, thr only hard part is finding out if the target is the player recieving the enemy's locations, or if the 'client' is the one recieving, you have to test it out more.

Can't do.
m_bPlayerSpotted is boolean and tells which client index is true, then all enemies see him in radar.


- If want show all enemies to X person, then you need hide all enemies from teammates. Can't do even that.
- Or you can hide that X person from all enemies.

I've done some testing and found that If change the "m_iTeamNum" with the enemy team (with sendproxy), the enemies will be show in the radar :D
