[Example] Changing player score

[raydan]

Here is the sample plugin to using "IncrementFragCount" to change player score. As we know, we can use "m_iFrags" or "m_iDeaths" to change score and death in game scoreboard, but you can't see updated data in server info.

In this example, you can add/set/reset scroe/death value in scorebaord and server info

PS: setting too high score/death value, scoreboard can't show correct value, but server info still display the real one.


RegConsoleCmd("add_score", add_5_score); // add 5 score
RegConsoleCmd("add_death", add_5_death); // add 5 death

RegConsoleCmd("reset_score", reset_score); //reset score to 0
RegConsoleCmd("reset_death", reset_death); //reset death to 0

RegConsoleCmd("set_score", set_score_to_4321); // set score to 4321
RegConsoleCmd("set_death", set_death_to_4321); // set death to 4321

Can't you just change m_iScore for players in CS:S?

I am thinking maybe that doesnt change it in the server window outside of game that he posted, so thats what this extention does. Not sure though.

Anything with new signatures is fun to play with :)

Another solution, without all those "complicated" SDK calls:

Global variable:

new game_score_index;

On round_start:

game_score_index = CreateEntityByName("game_score");
DispatchSpawn(game_score_index);

When you want to update someones score (in this example decrease by one):


SetEntProp(client, Prop_Data, "m_iFrags", GetClientFrags(client)-1);
AcceptEntityInput(game_score_index, "ApplyScore", client, game_score_index);

Works perfectly with CS:S and server query.
Of course you can also only use game_score to increase or decrease, but the way above is more flexible - you only need one entity, can set the scores to your hearts content, and then simply trigger an update.
