[TF2] Casting Spells

Okay so i have figured out how to make-shift cast spells:

Find the spell book and set the spell index and charges:

Code:



                while ((ent = FindEntityByClassname(ent, "tf_weapon_spellbook")) != -1)

                {

                        if(ent)

                        {

                                if (GetEntPropEnt(ent, Prop_Send, "m_hOwnerEntity")==client)

                                {

                                        SetEntProp(ent, Prop_Send, "m_iSelectedSpellIndex", spell);

                                        SetEntProp(ent, Prop_Send, "m_iSpellCharges", 10);

                                }

                        }

                }

Possible spells:
0 Fireball
1 Missile thingy (bats)
2 Ubercharge
3 Bomb
4 Super Jump
5 Invisible
6 Teleport
7 Electric Bolt
8 Small body, big head, speed
9 TEAM MONOCULUS
10 Meteor Shower
11 Skeleton Army (Spawns 3)
I used tf2 items to give my self a spell book, it is needed to cast spells.

Code:

SpawnWeapon(client, "tf_weapon_spellbook", 1069, 0, 0, "");

Spoiler

I will probably make a plugin to change/cast spells on players.
Still trying to figure out how to show the "current spell" on hud. lol.

Re: [TF2] Casting Spells

how did you find the m_iSelectedSpellIndex and m_iSpellCharges?

Re: [TF2] Casting Spells

DataMaps or Netprops probatly

Re: [TF2] Casting Spells

Question will be if the spells continue to stay alive after Halloween is over.

Re: [TF2] Casting Spells

Seems valve twerked the action slot taunt, so, this stuff is a bit messed up.
It's probably just easier to spawn the entity by name that the spellbook uses, its probably a tf_projectile or something... And then shoot it somewhere. That would be more useful that requiring all these other entities, a spellbook. Hud element... And requiring user input.

Re: [TF2] Casting Spells

I know this is a bit of a necro but I've tried using that stock and although I can give players a spellbook it won't let them cast spells with it. I posted about it in the thread below, can someone (preferably the op who got it to work) tell me what I did wrong?
