Tornado wont spawn...

Zenith77 · **Author**

Ok this little plugin is supposed to spwn a tornado or atleast do something..but it does nothing :/ I get no error messages or anything :/

Code:

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

new origin[3]
new Float:vOrigin[3]
new distanceBetween
new tornado_model
new alreadySpawned[33]

public plugin_init() {
    register_plugin( "Tornado", "1.0", "Zenith77" )
    register_clcmd("amx_tornado", "tornado", ADMIN_IMMUNITY, "Produces are tornado where you are aiming!" )
    register_cvar( "tornado_radius", "500" )
}


public plugin_precache() {
    
    tornado_model = precache_model( "sprites/xsmoke4.spr" )
}

public tornado(id, level, cid) {
    
    if (!cmd_access(id,level,cid,1)) {
        return PLUGIN_HANDLED 
    }
    new name[32], authid[32]
    
    get_user_name(id, name, 31)
    get_user_authid(id, authid, 31)
    
    
    if( alreadySpawned[id] == 1 ) {
        server_print( " [TORNADO] ************************WARNING************************* [TORNADO]" )
        server_print( "" )
        server_print( " [TORNADO] **WARNING** ADMIN %s has spawned more than on tornado at a time! ", name )
        server_print( " [TORNADO] This can cause your server to lag or crash! Clients reliable channel can also be overflowed!" )
        server_print( "" )
        server_print( " [TORNADO] ************************WARNING************************* [TORNADO]" )
        
        client_print(id, print_chat, " [TORNADO] **WARNING** More than one tornado was spawned! Crash or Reliable Channel Overflow possible!" )
        
        log_amx( " [TORNADO] **WARNING** ADMIN %s with AUTHID: %s Spawned more than one tornado! Server Crash or Reliable Channel Overflow possible!", name, authid )
    }
    
    server_print( " [TORNADO] ADMIN %s with AUTHID %s attempted to spawn a tornado!" )
    
    get_user_origin(id, origin, 3)
    
    message_begin(MSG_BROADCAST, SVC_TEMPENTITY) // TE_LARGEFUNNEL
    write_byte(100)
    write_coord(origin[0])
    write_coord(origin[1])
    write_coord(origin[2])
    write_short(tornado_model)
    message_end()
    
    server_print( " [TORNADO] <%s> <> <%s>  Tornado Successfuly Spawned! ",name, authid )
    
    alreadySpawned[id] = 1
    
    for ( new x = 1; x <=get_maxplayers(); x++) {
        if ( is_user_alive(x) && get_user_team(id) != get_user_team(x)) {
            
            entity_get_vector(x, EV_VEC_origin, vOrigin) 
            
            distanceBetween = get_distance(origin, vOrigin )
            
            if ( distanceBetween <= get_cvar_num("tornado_radius") ) {
                
                set_user_velocity(x,origin)
                
                
                for( new i = 0; i < 500; i++ ) {
                    if( distanceBetween <10 ) {
                        user_kill(x)
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
    
    return PLUGIN_HANDLED
}

I don't understand what it's supposed to do.

spwn a tornado..and then if a client is within a certain radius it sucks them in and kills them.

TE_LARGEFUNNEL takes three coords (origin), a short (sprite), and then another short (flags). It looks like you only use one short. Try another write_short(0); at the end.

what are the flags?

it still wont work :/

a) The last write_short is 1 if the funnel flows in reverse, 0 otherwise.

b) Do all of the other messages appear properly, it's just that the funnel is not showing up, or is the command not working at all?
