How can i hook a game cvar to a command? so like tf_max_voice_speak_delay cvar can be hooked as a command into sm_voicespeakdelay <value>

Untested. I don't think you can change the value of that specific convar anyway.

See thread for issue regarding that convar: [TF2] tf_max_voice_speak_delay not existing

PHP Code:

ConVar g_cvVoiceSpeakDelay;

public void OnPluginStart()
{
    g_cvVoiceSpeakDelay = FindConVar("tf_max_voice_speak_delay");
    RegAdminCmd("sm_voicespeakdelay", cmdVoiceSpeakDelay, ADMFLAG_ROOT, "Adjust the voice speak delay.");
}

public Action cmdVoiceSpeakDelay(int client, int args)
{
    switch (args)
    {
        case 1:
        {
            char sArg[2];
            GetCmdArg(1, sArg, sizeof sArg);
            if (g_cvVoiceSpeakDelay != null)
            {
                g_cvVoiceSpeakDelay.FloatValue = StringToFloat(sArg);
            }
            else
            {
                ReplyToCommand(client, "[SM] Unable to find convar: tf_max_voice_speak_delay");
            }
        }
        default: ReplyToCommand(client, "[SM] Usage: sm_voicespeakdelay <value>");
    }

    return Plugin_Handled;
}

it resets the value to 1.00000 only, maybe should be able to use sm_cvar as prefix, such as sm_voicepspeakdelay 123 makes it execute sm_cvar tf_max_voice_speak_delay 123

The method I showed works fine. It has SourceMod directly setting the value of the convar. The thread I linked explains why the value is not changing and why the convar itself doesn't work anymore after the Inferno update.

Specifically, these posts:

https://github.com/nosoop/SM-ConVarConfigs found this can make convars originally needed for sm_cvar prefix to change cvar now open so you can change it without needing to do sm_cvar like sm_cvar tf_max_voice_speak_delay

seems to work going upwards but cannot go lower than 0.00 even with the command exposed, doing it manually tf_max_voice_speak_delay works fine

Tested the code on a different command, the result is that the convar it is hooked to is just resetting to its minimum

If you want to lower the minimum value of a convar, use ConVar.SetBounds.

g_cvExampleConVar.SetBounds(ConVarBound_Lower, true, -1.0);

I tested the code on mp_warmuptime in csgo, it just resets it to the minimum, example doing sm_warmuptime 120 makes it only change to 5.0, nothing else
