ill do it

[DontWannaName]

I need this customized. I need a better algorithm for the number of gifts and I need it to read a text file and remove stuff from a line by line from a text file. Then I need some cool effects when the gift is found.

Hi I just want to report a bug with this plugin. We used your stock gift spawning function and it works great. There is a memory leak issue however that should be corrected in the OnStartTouch entity hook.

You are hooking the child entity to detect touches

SDKHook(ent, SDKHook_StartTouch, OnStartTouch);

But inside of the SDK hook, you are only killing the child entity and not the parent entity.

AcceptEntityInput(ent, "Kill");

If you have a server with a never ending map, you will quickly run out of available edicts if you don't kill the parent entity as well. (No free edicts error)

I fixed this in my setup by creating an array pointing to the parent entities then killing the parent entity which in turn kills the child. Right now you are only killing 1 of 2 entities created and it eventually will max out the entities used.

What I changed to fix the No Free Edicts crash from this stock. Note.. I used an array because I didn't know if hooking the touch to the parent would create a smaller area to grab the gift. So not sure there..:

Declared my parent entity array:
new a_entityParent[4096];

Modified my Stock to record the parent ent

stock Stock_SpawnGift(client)
{
	new ent;

	if((ent = CreateEntityByName("prop_physics_override")) != -1)
	{
		new Float:pos[3], String:targetname[100], String:tmp[256];

		GetClientAbsOrigin(client, pos);
		pos[2]-=50.0;

		Format(targetname, sizeof(targetname), "gift_%i", ent);

		DispatchKeyValue(ent, "model", g_sModel);
		DispatchKeyValue(ent, "physicsmode", "2");
		DispatchKeyValue(ent, "massScale", "1.0");
		DispatchKeyValue(ent, "targetname", targetname);
		DispatchSpawn(ent);
		
		SetEntProp(ent, Prop_Send, "m_usSolidFlags", 8);
		SetEntProp(ent, Prop_Send, "m_CollisionGroup", 1);
		
		if(FloatCompare(g_fLifetime, 0.0)!=0)
		{
			Format(tmp, sizeof(tmp), "OnUser1 !self:kill::%0.2f:-1", g_fLifetime);
			SetVariantString(tmp);
			AcceptEntityInput(ent, "AddOutput");
			AcceptEntityInput(ent, "FireUser1");
		}
		
		TeleportEntity(ent, pos, NULL_VECTOR, NULL_VECTOR);
		
		new rot = CreateEntityByName("func_rotating");
		DispatchKeyValueVector(rot, "origin", pos);
		DispatchKeyValue(rot, "targetname", targetname);
		DispatchKeyValue(rot, "maxspeed", "200");
		DispatchKeyValue(rot, "friction", "0");
		DispatchKeyValue(rot, "dmg", "0");
		DispatchKeyValue(rot, "solid", "0");
		DispatchKeyValue(rot, "spawnflags", "64");
		DispatchSpawn(rot);
		
		SetVariantString("!activator");
		AcceptEntityInput(ent, "SetParent", rot, rot);
		AcceptEntityInput(rot, "Start");
		
		a_entityParent[ent] = rot;
		SDKHook(ent, SDKHook_StartTouch, OnStartTouch);
	}
}

Killed the parent instead of the child in the sdk hook

public OnStartTouch(ent, client)
{
	if(g_eConditions[client]==Condition_InCondition)
		return;

	AcceptEntityInput(a_entityParent[ent], "KillHierarchy");
	
	if(GetArraySize(g_hPlugins)!=0)
	{
		new id = GetRandomInt(0, GetArraySize(g_hPlugins)-1);
		
		new Module:tmp[Module];
		GetArrayArray(g_hPlugins, id, tmp[0]);
		
		Call_StartFunction(tmp[PluginHndl], tmp[FunctionId]);
		Call_PushCell(client);
		Call_Finish();
	}
}

This solved the memory error No Free Edicts for me. Thanks for the plugin. The stock really helped and sent us in the right direction for coding purposes.

I have error when I try compile this plugin:

/home/groups/sourcemod/upload_tmp/phpk2jBHd.sp(3) : fatal error 120: cannot read from file: "sdkhooks"

Get the .sp from here and drop it in your includes folder.

How to make something happen when it's been picked up?

Like RTD when you typed rtd you get random prizes.
But how do u make it give u random prizes if you picked up the Gifts?

[Despirator]

code your plugin


example in attach

thank you for the info altho the proper fix would be using GetEntPropEnt(ent, Prop_Data, "m_iParent"); to find out the parent entity, i will update the plugin later

How do i make it so when u drop gift, and some1 picks up, you get _ store credits.?

[4bdul]

This isn't working for me at the moment on TF2 - no errors. Gifts don't drop on death at all, even though chance is 1.
