AMX Block Sprays

Very Simple Plugin - I searched for it and couldn't find it...if it's already been made just delete it but I figured I'm probably not the only one. Surprised it's not a console command.

This plugin blocks the use of sprays in game. Not just uploaded ones - spraying period.

USAGE
amx_blocksprays <1/0>
Enables or Disables the plugin

EDIT: DO NOT USE THIS - Use the code in the fourth or fifth reply down to properly block sprays

Re: AMX Block Sprays

Do you even know what is the message with ID == 23? It's a tempentity. Basically this plugin blocks all tempentity messages, i.e. most of the effects in the game. I don't think the users of this plugin will be happy.

You should block TE_PLAYERDECAL and also player/sprayer.wav sound.

Re: AMX Block Sprays

you know you can just change the decalfrequency to a higher number then the minutes in your map

Re: AMX Block Sprays

Yes, but you still will be able to spray once.

Re: AMX Block Sprays

Isn't it also reset on kill? So you would be able to spray after every kill.

Re: AMX Block Sprays

Yes, on kill and on respawn. Actually i meant that even when you set decalfrequency to the value that greater than timelimit * 60, the player will be able to spray at least once per round.

Re: AMX Block Sprays

Why not block the impulse command for sprays?

Re: AMX Block Sprays

You can't block the impulse command.

Re: AMX Block Sprays

This is the correct way to stop people from using their spray. If what VEN says about event 23 that it just more than spray. Then that is a bad way of doing this.

Code:

/* USAGE: amx_blocksprays <1/0> -- Enables or Disables Plugin */

#include <amxmodx>
#include <engine>
#include <amxmisc>

#define PLUGIN "Block Sprays"
#define VERSION "1.0"
#define AUTHOR "29th ID"

#define SPRAY 201

new g_pCvarEnabled

public plugin_init() {
    register_plugin(PLUGIN, VERSION, AUTHOR)

    g_pCvarEnabled = register_cvar("amx_blocksprays", "1")
}

// Fakemeta way would be Hooking the forward FM_CmdStart.
// An example of how to block certain command using FM_CmdStart

public client_impulse(id, impulse)
{
    if(get_pcvar_num(g_pCvarEnabled) && impulse == SPRAY)
    {
        client_print(id, print_chat, "[AMXX] You are not allowed to spray.");
        return PLUGIN_HANDLED;
    }

    return PLUGIN_CONTINUE;
}

Re: AMX Block Sprays

Yes, this is correct. Impulses is passed through CmdStart sctructure.

I'd say "very bad way". He fully blocked tempentities. No explosion effects, no sparks, no smoke, etc. The plugin is downloaded 33 times and still no complains, amazing!
