[TF2 & L4D & L4D2] Actions

ConVars

PHP Code:


		
			
// Logs every action transitions

// 1 - Enable debug, 0 - Disable debug

ext_actions_debug "0"



// Logs every action/behavior/component allocation or deallocation

// Used to track memory leaks

// 1 - Enable memory debug, 0 - Disable memory debug

ext_actions_debug_memory"0"

Commands

PHP Code:


		
			
ext_actions_dump - Dumps every nextbot actions to console.

How to use

PHP Code:


		
			
forward void OnActionCreated( BehaviorAction action, int actor, const char[] name );

Usually every use case should start from forward above. This forward notifies whenever entity got a new action but without actual transition yet.
That means action is constructed by the corresponding constructor and still hasn't been updated or started yet.
At this point you just hook any event handler and change it code execution as you want.

Re: [L4D2] Actions

What are the "action" related to? Any actions of survivors and infected (players)?

"Actions" are only related to nextbots. I can't give you full list of game actions since there are to many of them

PHP Code:


		
			
- Fixed InitialContainedAction handler for custom actions

I understand that with the help of your extension, can force a tank to attack a certain player or make him just stand still or run away from players or even make zombie friends for a survivors, I understand that the extension gives full control over the intelligence of entities that is embedded in the game engine?)

Re: [L4D2] Actions

This is a blessing thanks for release

#pragma semicolon 1

#pragma newdecls required



#include <actions>

then compiler will show error

Re: [L4D2] Actions

Using nb_move_to_cursor and nb_move_to_position seems to crash when a bot is spawned in when using this amazing extension.

And I for the life of me can not figure out how to use or what this is even supposed to do, Am somewhat new to messing with plugins at times. Any help on what it is supposed to do and how to use would be amazing!

PHP Code:


		
			
/* Used to iterate through all entity actions */

public static native void Actions( int entity, ActionsIteratorCallback callback );

And GetName() doesn't seem to work when getting the name of a result action like

PHP Code:


		
			
"result.action.GetName()"

It will give every action that passed entity contains. There is no way to legally create ArrayList via extension so that's the only way how can you pass multiple objects without creating your own handle type.

Just tested and seems to be working fine. Make sure you are not trying to access null action or show code so i can replicate issue.
