[TUT] Properly Detect Weapon Shot (Every Shot) [UPDATED]

WATCH_D0GS UNITED · **Author**

This is for hooking every gun shot.

It hooks the practically exact moment when a bullet is fired. Shots are detected in a extremely short time.

You do not need to check if player is pressing button.

You do not need to check if weapon has clip bullets.

Much more accurate and reliable than FM_PlaybackEvent, which counts every round start as shooting and misses the first bullet fired when using bools. (...)

This shot hook detects every of the shots which go through walls, so when you shoot with weapons which shots are capable to go through walls, ALL the crossing sections are counted as shot.

The debugger will inform you when you are shooting (TRUE),
when you are not shooting (FALSE),
and how many shots you fired (SHOTS).

*Every shot crossing walls is counted/detected as one different shot.
*Every shotgun pellet is counted/detected as one different shot.

UPDATE!

Now using FM_CmdEnd instead of CurWeapon to detect the shots in an even shorter period of time.
