[Info] About bullet/particle power change

Note #1: This information probably will not make much sence if you unfamiliar with the trace scripting.

I found the way to change a bullet/particle power directly through fraction traceresult. The problem is that the [power | fraction] dependence are nonlinear.

This is a table for AWP TA leg damage:

Code:

 F          D  

---------------

 0.0        30 

 0.1        29 

 0.3        28 

 0.5        27 

 0.7        26 

 0.9        25 

 1.1        24 

 1.4        23 

 1.7        22 

 2.0        21 

 2.3        20 

 2.6        19 

 2.8        18 

 3.2        17 

 3.5        16 

 3.9        15 

 4.2        14 

 4.6        13 

 5.1        12 

 5.6        11 

 6.2        10 

 6.6         9 

 7.3         8 

 8.0         7 

 8.9         6 

 9.8         5 

10.7         4 

12.0         3 

13.8         2 

16.2         1 

20.4         0

Note #2: For fraction in range {0.0 ... ~5.0} the dependence are nearly linear.

Note #3: Also you can use a negative fraction values to increase power.

Re: [Info] About bullet/particle power change

This is very interesting. Are the fractions in the table the same with other weapons?

what?

Re: [Info] About bullet/particle power change

The TR_flFraction value.

This is what im trying to do. Block the damage but still have the effect of getting shot.

Quote:

new hitplace = get_tr(TR_iHitgroup)
if(hitplace == HIT_CHEST || hitplace == HIT_STOMACH)
{
set_tr(TR_flFraction, 30.0)
}

Because using 1.0 it seems like you didnt even get hit.

Re: [Info] About bullet/particle power change

Quick question, what is TR_flFraction (and the other stuff for that matter). I haven't had much experience with trace_line() and would appreciate a quick explanation ;).

Re: [Info] About bullet/particle power change

It's a trace result data member. Probably represents a tracing time in some units. To reproduce hit effect without any damage you can set it to high value for example to 100.0.

Re: [Info] About bullet/particle power change

I was kind of asking for specifics, I know what it general is :p. Thanks anyway.

So, the reason that all TraceLine codes assume that you didn't hit anything if flFraction is 1.0, is because that means that the trace made it 100% of the way before hitting anything (aka, it never hit anything).
