Any ideas on how it might be possible to detect if a player is either being healed by, or standing next to, a dispenser in TF2?

Check m_nNumHealers netprop on the player, if it's non-zero, loop through all obj_dispenser entities, filtering them out of they're more than 400(?) Hammer units away.

For a more precise (maybe) check hooking sounds for weapons/dispenser_heal.wav might work. If so, then you could just loop through all players and see who's close enough to it.

Thanks for your suggestion, knowing about m_nNumHealers made all the difference.

This is what I ended up doing.

PHP Code:

new healers = GetEntProp(client, Prop_Send, "m_nNumHealers");
if (healers > 0)
{
    // player is being healed
    new String:classname[64];
    new medics = 0;
    
    for (new i = 1; i < MAXPLAYERS; i++)
    {
        if (IsValidClient(i))
        {
            TF2_GetCurrentWeaponClass(i, classname, sizeof(classname));
            if(StrEqual(classname, "CWeaponMedigun"))
            {
                new index = GetEntPropEnt(i, Prop_Send, "m_hActiveWeapon");
                if(GetEntProp(index, Prop_Send, "m_bHealing") == 1)
                {
                    if (client == GetEntPropEnt(index, Prop_Send, "m_hHealingTarget"))
                    {
                        // player is being healed by a medic
                        medics++;
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
    if (healers > medics)
    {
        // player is being healed by something other than a medic
        DoStuff(client);
    }
}

stock bool:IsValidClient(client)
{
    if (client <= 0 || client > MaxClients) return false;
    if (!IsClientInGame(client)) return false;
    if (IsClientSourceTV(client) || IsClientReplay(client)) return false;
    return true;
}

TF2_GetCurrentWeaponClass? I don't recall seeing such a function in the tf2 or tf2_stocks includes. Or did you mean GetClientWeapon, which would return "tf_weapon_medigun" not "CWeaponMedigun"?

For that matter, I'm not sure if things like Medicating Melody (Amputator taunt), Mad Milk, Black Box, and other non-Medigun healing methods affect the m_nNumHealers count.

Edit: Oh, and you seem to have forgotten to check if a player is on BLU or RED as opposed to Spectator or Unassigned.

[jasonfrog]

Ah yes, sorry I forgot include the stock I was using in the code above.

PHP Code:

stock TF2_GetCurrentWeaponClass(client, String:name[], maxlength)
{
    if( client > 0 )
    {
        new index = GetEntPropEnt(client, Prop_Send, "m_hActiveWeapon");
        if (index > 0)
            GetEntityNetClass(index, name, maxlength);
    }
} 


I didn't check for team, because, for example, a red medic could be healing a blue sniper.

Good point about the other items.

Just check that the team is > _:TFTeam_Spectator

Do any of the events work? player_healed would be great if it did.

player_healed
Name: player_healed
Structure:
short patient
short healer
short amount

player_healedbymedic
Name: player_healedbymedic
Structure:

player_healonhit
