Using FOV for makeshift binoculars...clever. Veeeery clever.

Perhaps add an override so only clients with a certain flag can use it.

Esto lo tengo que probar Francisco

Edit: Lo he probado Francisco en mi server y prefiero que no se pueda disparar cuando esta activado los prismaticos, sino creo yo que deja de ser prismaticos para ser Zoom de armas

you should add a nice overlay to simulate an actual binocular and it will be even more awesome

Yes, already they asked me, then I will try to add good overlay

btw, proposals are supported for overlays

This won't work on Nuclear Dawn as there is no "weapon_zoom" event to hook into (though it does exist in the "nucleardawn/modevents.res" file, under "cstrikeevents" list, but not in the "nucleardawn/resource/ModEvents.res"). Though there are of course some sorta event along that path since there are sniper scope weapons ingame (ironsights I think). Not sure what its alternate name is on ND. Am looking into it when I get a bit more time though, less someone beats me to it, ;)

EDIT: Long as the weapon_zoom hook is ignored/disabled this does work on ND, Though it does ignore the binoculars/attack ignore setting (it spams chat with you can't attack messages but still shoots).

Quick hack attached for ND users, will ignore weapon_zoom event hook. Its a dirty hack but least it works on ND,
Oh an all I did was change the hook line to the following:

    new String:modname[30];
    GetGameFolderName(modname, sizeof(modname));
    if (!StrEqual(modname, "nucleardawn", false))
    {
         HookEvent("weapon_zoom", EventWeaponZoom);
    }

EDIT: Found another glitch, when (in ND this obviously) you right-click to use normal weapons zoom scope (if it has one) and shoot, it spams chat with you can't attack while using binoculars text too. Am guessing it'll be sorted if we can find out what ND uses instead of "weapon_zoom" as the event name.

EDIT: Just had the same problem of no "weapon_zoom" in TF2 also btw.
