Cluster Grenades
 

COMMAND(S):
amx_cluster_grenade_enable: Use a 1 to disable and a 0 to disable. Admin use only.

This plugin basically gives all HE grenades clusters. When the plugin is activated (default) it will recognize when a grenade explodes and will launch 5 clusters in random directions, each dealing up to 20 damage.

If you would like to modify things such as how many clusters you must modify the constants at the top of the script. I recommend mine. :-/

If you have any problems please post because i have done lan testing with myself but no public testing. thanks!

UPDATE:
- I found that part of the msg i was using to identify an explosion was map specific. I changed the identifiers so it should work on all maps.
- I added in a fail-safe for one of the functions

sounds interesting, I bet people would be pissed off because it would be lame to them :D

haha. I thought about catching the damage dealt from the initial grenade so it wouldnt be as harsh, but 20 damage per cluster isnt going to be too terrible.

The plugin was updated since i found a glitch. More details on top

lol I'll check this out!

Nice job, I'm definitely going to try this out, sounds like a nice addition.

LMAO!!!!!Very nice plugin dude,install was 3 minutes,works perfect

What would cause me to get a "bad load" with this plugin? :?

make sure you have it written correctly in your plugins ini.
amx_grenades_are_heavy.amxx or what ever the file name is

bad load is generic u gotta tell me wat it says. Most likely ur engine module is not activated. To activate open your modules.ini and remove the ' ; ' before engine.dll (for windows) or the 2 .so ones around it.

Yuppers Dommy, That was my problem. Thanks....BIG-TIME :D

Errors:

L 01/06/2005 - 13:32:53: [AMXX] Native error in "get_msg_arg_int" on line 36 (file "cluster_grenade.sma").



L 01/06/2005 - 13:32:55: [AMXX] Native error in "entity_get_string" on line 63 (file "cluster_grenade.sma").

ok. um...

with the first error i'm not sure wat caused it, but i went ahead and added in a fail-safe that basically checks to make sure that there are at least 2 parameters in the message (there would have to be less than 2 for an error to occur)

with the second error im not sure what is causing it. my guess is that there is no value assigned (since i can't think of any other reason) if you could give me a more detailed error that would help

ill go ahead and upload the changes

PS: You were a line off on the second error -.-
PPS: I think the cause of these errors is a conflict so make sure that when u test there r no other plugins. Also in other plugins, never use PLUGIN_HANDLED as a return statement when handling messages (Unless you want to block it from everything else).

Other bugs or suggestions:

Can you make this mod follow Friendly Fire Rules so it doesn't kill teammates when FF is off. This mod will get abused by the same ppl who kill teammates when FF is on.

Death message doesn't show up right, it should show you who killed you, instead it shows you killed yourself.

<BUG>: Sometimes the death messages shows wrong and shows that a teammate killed you instead of the enemy killing you, this goes along with the suggestion above.

I don't have any mods that would conflict with this that I can think of because this server I got these errors on were from a server that has no major mods on it :wink:

If you can at least get it to follow FF I would like to use this mod but without that I'm going to keep it off for now even though this mod is one of my favorites.

i think i kno wats causing these errors...the problem is that the engine is not completly syncronized so some things might be out of place. I'm going to go ahead and work on some methods to synchronize it (mainly using whiles and booleans). The synchronized beta should be out pretty soon. (I'm pretty new to C# so if you kno a better way to synchronize stuff than using booleans and while loops PLZ tell me :oops:)

Also friendly fire won't be a problem. I'll make it check the " mp_friendlyfire " cvar so that it obeys that. Thanks for the suggestions :)

Ammox error
 

Hi Guys,

I've just installed this plugin, it loads fine, but when somebody tries to join the server, I get the following error which crashes the server.


04 og L 01/20/2005 - 15:38:16: FATAL ERROR (shutting down): User Msg 'AmmoX': 4 bytes written, expected 2

I've got Engine, Fake Meta, plus all the default things running. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Steven

Just a slight update with no progress so far.

I disabled all plugins except this one and am still getting the ammox error. I thought maybe there was a conflict in another plugin but that doesn't seem to be the problem.

Fett

cool plugin but i have a prob
 

when some one gets killed with the cluster its anybodys guess as to who will get the kill score how do i fix that????
thank you

help?
 

Is there by any chance a certain somebody that could direct to to a place that would tell me how to config all of this to make it work.. really.. im new to everything

clusters showing number 5 in game
 

yo just tried this and i see the number 5 instead splashed on the ground check this screenshot game is czero by the way

They only problem I saw was if you threw a grenade at an enemy but one of the cluster grenades killed him, it would say he killed himself with his own nade and count it as a suicide

i did all the stuff with the plugin i didnt compile it because it was the same format as the rest of the files... when i put in the command to turn it on it says unknown command... any ideas????

hey doomy, this is funny

" Use a 1 to disable and a 0 to disable. Admin use only. "

what you said ^^ how can I enable? lol jp

this is freaking SICK dude, it's funny when people go OMG! WTF WAS THAT!? HAHA love these outta nowhere plugins haha thanks

amx_cluster_grenade_enable: Use a 1 to disable and a 0 to disable. Admin use only.

why don't you make it ADMIN use only, also, can you make it where they don't harm you or friends? cause I keep nading myself when I throw it near me, it's hella dumb :/

sounds ok i guess??? :roll:

Ok I got it working now. :oops: Do not know what I did but it is working great.
Thanks for your time

If the grenade explodes on a wall, only half the clusters get released as the other ones explode. Is there anyway you can make it so that it always explodes perpendicular to the wall?

wait how do u change how many nades fly out when the first nade explodes

Define at the top:

I too am getting this same problem. Any chance you are going to fix this anytime soon as I would like to reload it onto my server located at losangeles.nuclearfallout.net

got another problem:

if FF (friendly fire) is set OFF, the clusters (not the he itself) cause damage at the teammates.

any fix for this?

btw, very nice idea!


EDIT:
and the same effect as described by others in this thread: if a cluster (not the he itself) kills someone, the killed is declared as the killer.

EDIT2:
could u extend the usage of cvars? the following values would be nice to edit during a game:
#define CLUSTERS 8
#define MAX_CLUSTER_DAMAGE 8
#define CLUSTER_DAMAGE_RADIUS 300
#define MIN_FLY_DISTANCE 300
#define MAX_FLY_DISTANCE 800

L 10/13/2005 - 20:41:21: [AMXX] Plugin needs newer debug version info (plugin "clusters.amxx")


hopin doomy can fix :roll:

This error means you need to recompile in 1.60. The debug information changed between versions so when you set debug on for a plugin, you'll run into this if you haven't recompiled.

thanks alot for the info

karma for you :!:

im getting the killed by team mate or byself bug
running 1.55 and uwc3 mod plus some plugins ill get a list later

any update on this plugin????

I would like to see an update. the currant version has all errors posted in this topic

This is what I got, can someone fix it?

Re: Cluster Grenades
 

any friendlyfire 1/0 ? coz it gets realy annoying how 1 guy kills half of the team..

Re: Cluster Grenades
 

Hi all,

I sent this in a PM to doomy, but I dont know if he is arround or will answer so I will post it here as well in case anyone else can assist, or in case the answer could help some one else.

Im trying to port this into UWC3 mod but am having a small problem
Is it possible for me to put in a check where

I have the cluster skill working but it doesnt seem to keep track of the users properly, for example I have it set up to have each skill point as 1 cluster available to come out - so I have 4 skill points yet when I throw the "owner" is actually a different person who has 0 skill points and so nothing happens.

Could you point me in the right direction?

PHP Code:

---

public grenade_explosion() 
{
 
[...normal code...]
 
/* Get the owner of the Grenade */
new owner = get_grenade_owner();


/*and then look up their skill points in cluster grenade */
new CLUSTERS = p_skills[owner][SKILLIDX_CLUSTERNADE];


/* THIS IS FOR DEBUG */
new idname[32];
get_user_name( owner , idname, 31 );
client_print( 0, print_console, "DEBUG :: grenade_explosion -> Player=%s CLUSTERS = %d ", idname, CLUSTERS );
log_amx( "DEBUG :: grenade_explosion -> Player=%s CLUSTERS = %d ", idname, CLUSTERS );
/* THIS IS FOR DEBUG */
 
[... normal code...] 


---

So basically nothing else has changed - only varying the amount of clusters. The problem I'm having is that using the owner to look up the value that is indexed by player ID it gets different people then it should, some times it doesnt even get the same person.

Did I do something wrong ? I'm sure its an easy answer and im just noob

thank you all

Re: Cluster Grenades
 

an someone fix this ? can someone correct the friendly fire?


In my maps folder in config for editing my map cvars i have mp_friendlyfire 0 this plugin ignores that. So freindlyfire is on. https://forums.alliedmods.net/images/smilies/cry.gif
