[Max_Damage]

I've looked through every 'health' post in this section of the forum.
Is there still any way from setting max health to a player that actually works w/o decay?

Thanks, I know that one, but I'm looking to do it with a plugin.

A bit hackish, but this is the only way I know of(would also work with a repeating timer):

PHP Code:

public OnGameFrame()
{
     for (new i=1;i<MaxClients; i++)
     {
          if (IsClientInGame(i)&&IsPlayerAlive(i))
          {
               TF2_AddCondition(i, TFCond_Healing, 1.0);
          }
     }
} 


Other than that, you could set health OnGameFrame and use SDKhooks to reduce it OnTakeDamage.

Also, Using TF2Items, there is an overheal decay disable attribute for mediguns(Attribute 14);

What you wrote works. But I'm looking to increase the ceiling of max_health.
Example: Scout has max health of 125, is there a way to permanently increase it to 150 w/o decay.
I kept reading that changing m_iMaxHealth works before some patch, but not anymore.

I think that used to work yes, but not anymore.

If you want to permanently increase scouts to 150 health though, you can edit the tf/scripts/playerclasses/scout.ctx file with a ctx decompiler/recompiler and change the health_max value to 150.

That will permanantly change the base health, and obey all the equipment/medigun overhealing rules.(IE, medigun will overheal to 225, sandman will reduce to 135 health, etc.)

I just realized, If you want a plugin to do it, you could use TF2items to do it, with attribute 26(max health additive bonus)

You would just need to edit the tf2items.weapons config file to add that attribute to a scout item(IE, add it on every scout primary, or every scout secondary, or every scout melee, so as not to stack them)

Edit: I just tested this successfully, it gave scouts with the z flag 150 base health

the smoothest way would probably be to use this.

Why not try changing m_iMaxHealth on PostThink using SDKHooks?

Not quite at that level of SourceMod knowledge, can you elaborate?

[Tylerst]

I'm guessing he meant something like this, but that would only cause the hp to fluxuate between 125 and 150 since the game resets it per frame.

PHP Code:

#include <sourcemod>
#include <tf2>
#include <tf2_stocks>
#include <sdkhooks>
public OnPluginStart()
{
     for (new i = 1; i <= MaxClients; i++)
     {
          if(IsClientInGame(i)) 
          {
               SDKHook(i, SDKHook_PostThink, PostThinkHook);
          }  
     }  
}
public OnClientPutInServer(client)
{
     SDKHook(client, SDKHook_PostThink, PostThinkHook);
}
 
public PostThinkHook(client)
{
     if(TF2_GetPlayerClass(client)&TFClass_Scout)
     {
          TF2_SetPlayerResourceData(client, TFResource_MaxHealth, 150)
     }
}
