tfcx bug

Could someone please fix the tfc_setweaponammo() function in the tfcx module? It doesn't work.

Moreover, when this function gets called, some core amxx functions start glitching as well as functions from other modules. No amxx errors where showing up which either. Once tfc_setweaponammo() is removed from plugin amxx and its modules starts behaving as normal.

Re: tfcx bug

Actually, just a simple test plugin which shows the issue should be enough to explain.

Re: tfcx bug

PHP Code:


		
			
#include <amxmodx>
#include <amxmisc>
#include <hamsandwich>
#include <tfcx>

#define PLUGIN "New Plug-In"
#define VERSION "1.0"
#define AUTHOR "author"


public plugin_init() {
    register_plugin(PLUGIN, VERSION, AUTHOR)
    
    RegisterHam(Ham_TakeDamage, "player", "damage")
}
public damage(victim, wpn, attacker, Float:dmg, bit)
{
    tfc_setweaponammo(wpn, 4)
}

The include says "Index must be weapon's entity index" but TFCX is now getting an error saying "Non-player entity # out of range" every time a hit is made by a projectile or hitscan. I've tried getting wepaon index though get_user_weapon() and no weapon index returned valid to this function. Something is broken somewhere for weapon ents returned to not actually be valid. Not sure whats going on with it

Re: tfcx bug

This native expects a weapon entity. Are you sure the inflictor "wpn" is the weapon index here?

Anyway this natives just set an offset on a weapon. You most likely don't use it properly.

Re: tfcx bug

It has with some weapons in the past. You asked for a test plugin so I tossed one together. I've tried get_user_weapon() to get the weapon entity but tfcx still rejects it. If none of the means to get the weapon entity return values acceptable to tfcx, then how the heck is tfc_setweaponammo() even workable? It doesn't seem anything is compatible with tfc_setweaponammo(). This function is too temperamental to work with and pretty much useless when nothing returns weapon ent values it can accept.

Re: tfcx bug

Tested tfc_getweaponammo and it works fine, but it's expected, it just sets some offset. All you need to provide is a weapon index. That's not something you will get from inflictor in TakeDamage, generally such index is the weapon projectile.

Also, get_user_weapon doesn't return the weapon index, but the identifier TFC_WPN_* .

Re: tfcx bug

Something you can do:

PHP Code:


		
			
FillAllOwnedWeapons(const weap_name[])
{
  static e = -1, o = 0;
  e = -1;
 
  while (pev_valid((e = engfunc(EngFunc_FindEntityByString, e, "classname", weap_name))))
  {
    o = pev(e, pev_owner);
 
    if (pev_valid(o) && is_user_connected(o))
    {
      tfc_setweaponammo(e, 4);
    }
  }
}

Re: tfcx bug

So theres no singular function for getting weapon entity? If I remember correctly, find entity by class only returns the 1st match it finds and then stops there.

Sorry for reporting this one as a bug. Looked like a bug when HLDS wasn't displaying errors making it hard to find out what was going on until I restarted it.

When you say offset you mean the private data offset right? Would set_pdata_* be an alternative? What kind of private data is it and what is its offset?
