trying to decrease "client_preThink" CPU usage

Is there any way to decrease CPU load as much as possible?
(bhop as usual)

PHP Code:


		
			
public client_PreThink(id) 

{

    if(get_pcvar_num(mp_bhop_ban)) {

        if(gBhop[id] == 1) gBhop[id] = 0

    }

    

    if(gBhop[id] == 0)

        return PLUGIN_HANDLED

    

    entity_set_float(id, EV_FL_fuser2, 0.0)        

    

    if (entity_get_int(id, EV_INT_button) & 2) {    

        new flags = entity_get_int(id, EV_INT_flags)

    

        if (flags & FL_WATERJUMP)

            return PLUGIN_CONTINUE

        if ( entity_get_int(id, EV_INT_waterlevel) >= 2 )

            return PLUGIN_CONTINUE

        if ( !(flags & FL_ONGROUND) )

            return PLUGIN_CONTINUE

                    

        if (gAutojump[id] == 1) {

            new Float:velocity[3]

            

            entity_get_vector(id, EV_VEC_velocity, velocity)

            

            velocity[2] += 250.0

            

            entity_set_vector(id, EV_VEC_velocity, velocity)

        }

        

        entity_set_int(id, EV_INT_gaitsequence, 6)

    }

    

    return PLUGIN_HANDLED

}

Re: trying to decrease "client_preThink" CPU usage

You can probably replace client_PreThink with Ham_Player_Jump.
Both are called once per frame but Ham_Player_Jump only if a player has the jump key held

Code:

/**

         * Players have all the attributes of normal entities, in addition to these.

         */

         

        /**

         * Description:                Typically called every frame when a player has jump held.

         * Forward params:        function(this)

         * Return type:                None.

         * Execute params:        ExecuteHam(Ham_Player_Jump, this);

         */

        Ham_Player_Jump,

Always declare variables in forwards that is being called many times per second using static, change players Boolean variables to bitsum booleans, returning in prethink is ignored so best just to return plugin_continue.

If it's ignored, what's the point of returning anything? Just do a blank return.

Blank return is a plugin continue, but also you're right it should be just return.

maybe a check of 0.1 is better, because prethink is according to the player's frames

depending on what he's trying to achieve.

Re: trying to decrease "client_preThink" CPU usage

Like CrazY said, using PreThink for auto-bunnyhop is not a 2021 way of making plugins.
Ham_Player_Jump is the right solution.

Re: trying to decrease "client_preThink" CPU usage

It's literally 1 line of code. Understanding PreThink and CPU usage but not HamSandwich doesn't make much sense.

Code:

RegisterHam(Ham_Player_Jump, "player", "OnPlayerJump", 1)

public OnPlayerJump(id)
{
    // your code here...
}
