Hi
I am new to the sourcepawn scene, i have a pretty strong c/cpp background so i'm picking the language up pretty quick.
But i am trying to write a code to modify the base damage of the knife (or any weapon for that matter) and I am absolutely stumped i have no idea what to do
Can any1 help put me in the right direction please?

Thanks in advance
HeZ

There are convars for that, I believe. No need to write a plugin at all.

[HeZ]

Ooh how convenient
Would you happen to know where i can find a list of such convars?

[Monkeys]

Not sure where to find the list for CSS exclusively.
The command will most likely be in lines of
sk_plr_dmg_knife
Just look around in your console

To change damage in CS:S you'll need to modify the damage on player_hurt or use SDKHooks OnTakeDamage, there are no cvars.

Wow, CSS sucks. :p

Well, if what he says is true, you'll need to learn to work with SDKHooks.

I did this for instant kills for an achimevent server I setup a while back to get them done fast lol. This makes all guns 1 hit kill, but you can modify it to only effect knives based on client info and event info:

PHP Code:

/**
 * Instant Kills.sp - (c) 2010 atom0s
 * SourceMod plugin for SourceMod v1.3.1 or higher.
 * This plugin requires SDKHooks.
 */
#pragma semicolon 1

#include <sourcemod>
#include <sdktools>
#include <sdkhooks>

/**
 * Plugin Version
 */
#define PLUGIN_VERSION "1.0.0"

/**
 * Plugin Infomation Struct
 */
public Plugin:myinfo = {
    name         = "Instant Kills,
    author         = "atom0s",
    description = "Implements one hit kills for non-bot players.",
    version     = PLUGIN_VERSION,
    url         = "N/A"
};

/**
 * Plugin Start Event
 */
public OnPluginStart( )
{
    // Create Version Cvar
    CreateConVar( "doubledamage_version", PLUGIN_VERSION, "Double Damage Bullets (by atom0s) version.", FCVAR_REPLICATED|FCVAR_NOTIFY|FCVAR_DONTRECORD );
}

/**
 * Player Load Event
 */
public OnClientPutInServer(client)
{
    if( IsFakeClient( client ) )
    {
        SDKHook(client, SDKHook_OnTakeDamage, OnTakeDamage);
    }
}

/**
 * Player Hurt Event
 */
public Action:OnTakeDamage(victim, &attacker, &inflictor, &Float:damage, &damagetype)
{
    damage = 255.0;
    return Plugin_Changed;
}

Cool that helps heaps how would i find what weapon and what attack style the damage is done with?
Say i want terrorists to have a one hit kill knife slash

public Action:OnTakeDamage(victim, &attacker, &inflictor, &Float:damage, &damagetype)
{
if (GetClientTeam(attacker) == 2 && <weapon is knife left click>)
{
damage = 255.0;
}
return Plugin_Changed;
}

This has something to do with &inflictor and &damagetype?

also sorry for the noob questions, i have only just started learning.. but what does the & mean in front of the parameters??

[Leonardo]

<weapon is knife left click>? lol

[HeZ]

yea.. what doesnt make sense with that? i guess knife slash is dependant on how you set your controls but left click is default so yeah.

if the two conditions of attacker team is terrorist and the weapon used is the knife slash then execute the if block..
now that i look at it i see the plugin_changed should be within the if block and i then need an else block with something that returns default damage for whatever wepon was used.. plugin_handled will block damage done will it?

but anywhay what my actual question was was how do i find what weapon and what attack style was used?

thanks
