Weapon Max Shot Distance

Weapon Max Shot Distance

By: nikhilgupta345

Description:

This plugin allows you to limit the maximum distance a player can be with a certain weapon to hit a player.

CVars:

max_distance_* - Max distance players can be to hit opponent with specified weapon

Possible Values for * are:

p228

scout

xm1014

mac10

aug

elite

fiveseven

ump45

sg550

galil

famas

usp

glock18

awp

mp5navy

m249

m3

m4a1

tmp

g3sg1

deagle

sg552

ak47

p90

Installation:

Click 'Get Plugin' link below

Place 'max_shot_distance.amxx' in addons/amxmodx/plugins/ folder

Open addons/amxmodx/configs/plugins.ini

Add the line 'max_shot_distance.amxx' at the bottom

Add CVARs you want to amxx.cfg. All cvars default to 0, meaning that they are inactive and players can be hit with that weapon from anywhere

Restart server or change map

Changelog:

Code:

October 14, 2011 -v1.0- Initial Release

Notes:

The distances tend to be very high numbers. For example, setting a weapon to 200 units is about the distance from the box at mid on de_dust2 to the mid doors. (The boxes in front of the entrance to lower tunnels).

The distance between players if they are touching I think is ~35 or so.

Re: Weapon Max Shot Distance

RegisterCVars function doesn't need to be public
g_szWeaponClassnames shouldn't be global, declare it in RegisterCVars function so memory is free when you exit the function.

i < MAX_WEAPON + 1
i <= MAX_WEAPON would make more sense

Little tip :

PHP Code:


		
			
            formatex( szCVarName, charsmax( szCVarName ), "max_distance_%s", g_szWeaponClassnames[ i ] );
            
            replace( szCVarName, charsmax( szCVarName ), "weapon_", "" );

PHP Code:


		
			
            formatex( szCVarName, charsmax( szCVarName ), "max_distance_%s", g_szWeaponClassnames[ i ][ 7 ] );

PHP Code:


		
			
        static Float:flAttackerOrigin[ 3 ];
        static Float:flVictimOrigin[ 3 ];

Static is not needed at all there.

Code:

        if( !g_pWeaponCVARs[ iWeapon ] )
            return HAM_IGNORED;
        
        new iMaxDistance = get_pcvar_num( g_pWeaponCVARs[ iWeapon ] );

You read 2 times the same array, would be better to cache pointer result.

DMG_HEGRENADE check is useless, it will never happen.

Your plugin only allow to lower default weapon distance, and not to raise it.
With orpheu you could lower or raise this distance, and you could also change bullets penetration (number of times a bullet can go thru a wall).
So your way is very limitated.
