Hello. I have been thinking about changing speed of attacking and distance of hitting with a knife.

I have already done this in CS 1.6:

PHP Code:

//Code for doubleing speed
RegisterHam(Ham_Weapon_PrimaryAttack, "weapon_knife", "KnifeAttack_Post", 1);
RegisterHam(Ham_Weapon_SecondaryAttack, "weapon_knife", "KnifeAttack_Post", 1);

public KnifeAttack_Post(ent){
    new id;
    id=entity_get_edict(ent, EV_ENT_owner);
    
    for(new i=46; i<=48; i++)
        set_pdata_float(ent, i, (get_pdata_float(ent, i, 4)*2.0, 4)

    return HAM_IGNORED;
}

//Code for doubleing distance
register_forward(FM_TraceLine, "TraceLine", 0);


public TraceLine(Float:vecStart[3], Float:vecEnd[3], conditions, id, ptr){
    if(!IsPlayerAlive(id))
        return FMRES_IGNORED;
    if(get_user_weapon(id)!=CSW_KNIFE)
        return FMRES_IGNORED;

    static Float:flFraction, Float:vecAngles[3], Float:vecForward[3], attack_mod, Float:Distance;
    pev(id, pev_v_angle, vecAngles);
    engfunc(EngFunc_MakeVectors, vecAngles);

    global_get(glb_v_forward, vecForward);

    attack_mod=RoundFloat((vecStart[0]-vecEnd[0])/vecForward[0]*-1.0);

    if(attack_mod!=48 && attack_mod!=32)
        return FMRES_IGNORED;

    Distance=2.0; //default 1.0
    Distance*=attack_mod;

    if(Distance<=0)
        return FMRES_IGNORED;

    get_tr2(ptr, TR_flFraction, flFraction);

    xs_vec_mul_scalar(vecForward, Distance, vecForward);
    xs_vec_add(vecStart, vecForward, vecEnd);

    engfunc(EngFunc_TraceLine, vecStart, vecEnd, conditions, id, ptr);

    return FMRES_SUPERCEDE;
} 


I have experimented with SDKhooks on this matter:

PHP Code:

public void OnClientPutInServer(int client)
{
    if (false == IsValidClient(client))
    {
        return;
    }

    SDKHook(client, SDKHook_FireBulletsPost, FireBulletsPost);
    SDKHook(client, SDKHook_TraceAttack, TraceAttack);
}


public void FireBulletsPost(int client, int shots, const char[] weaponname)
{
    sendDebugMessage("FireBulletsPost");
}

public Action TraceAttack(int victim, int& attacker, int& inflictor, float& damage, int& damagetype, int& ammotype, int hitbox, int hitgroup)
{
    sendDebugMessage("TraceAttack");
} 


But this only prints a message when i shoot somebody and deal damage, but not with a knife.

I have also gotten my hands on Prop Data Knife properties. I have:

PHP Code:

    SetEntPropFloat(iWeaponTemp, Prop_Send, "m_flNextPrimaryAttack", GetGameTime() + 1.1);
    SetEntPropFloat(iWeaponTemp, Prop_Send, "m_flNextSecondaryAttack", GetGameTime() + 1.1); 


which should set the next attack to be avalible in 1.1 seconds. The problem is, how do i catch when the players is attacking with a knife?

The second Prop Data that caught my attention were:

PHP Code:

- m_fMinRange1 (Offset 2440) (Save)(4 Bytes)
- m_fMinRange2 (Offset 2444) (Save)(4 Bytes)
- m_fMaxRange1 (Offset 2448) (Save)(4 Bytes)
- m_fMaxRange2 (Offset 2452) (Save)(4 Bytes) 


But the question is, will this change the range of attacking? When do i change it? At player spawn? At weapon change? At weapon entity spawn?
