Best way to block vehicle kills

Let's get on the topic - I'm trying to find the best way to block any kills with any kind of vehicle. Allright, I had some ideas (which may sound suuper srupid):
- registering message (get_user_smgid("DeathMsg")) and check if the weapon entity is "vehicle". Allright, but how to block (set_msg_block?). And also, how to prevent player from death - just continue pushing by the vehicle or just set his origin away from the vehicle ent?
- registering Ham_TakeDamage, where to check if inflictor is "vehicle" and then return the ham_supercede. But is this ham even called on vehicle kill?!

I'm still thinking that the first way is better, but have no clear idea how to fully block the killing and prevent player from dying... Thanks!

Set godmode for a few seconds (?)

Mmm, I don't know if it's the best way, since when he should die, something unknown will be done... Like flying the player away or stucking him somewhere, idk... Just guessing.
Waiting for some ideas, maybe...

I think you can loop through all "func_vehicle" entities and put their pev_dmg to 0, that should do it, no more drive-overs.

Re: Best way to block vehicle kills

Okay, but what's the best way to get entity's index from DeathMsg message? What does exactly read_data(4) or in this case get_msg_arg_string(4) return - is the string classname, or what, and how to get entity index from that string? FindEntityBy_ what?
Plus, where exactly to set pev_dmg to 0 to prevent making eny damage, do I have to do it directly in the message hook?
Thanks!

Just check for every "func_vehicle" in plugin_init() and set theirs pev_dmg to 0, that's all to it.

Just like this? And that's all? :O :D

PHP Code:


		
			
#include <amxmodx>

#include <fakemeta>



public plugin_init()

{

    register_plugin("No Vehicle Kills", "1.0", "Flicker")

    

    new ent = FM_NULLENT

    

    

    while((ent = engfunc(EngFunc_FindEntityByString, ent, "classname", "func_vehicle")))

        set_pev(ent, pev_dmg, 0)

}

}

You should have tested it before posting here, but yes, that should be it, only if I haven't mistaken damage amount field, but since it says the key is "dmg" in VHE keyvalue, I guess it is pev_dmg indeed. I know for sure that pev_impulse is max speed(can be found in HLSDK).

Well, will have to say that it doesn't work... :D It still kills the player.
