Boom. Rocket. If you've used Evolve on Garry's Mod before, you know what this does.

Upon doing sm_rocket <target>, the target will go up, up, and awaydie. On the way up they'll have a nice little rocket trail attached to them, and after flying for a second or two, they'll go boom in a cool, harmless explosion. Same deal as ev_rocket. You will also get the kill credit for said death (assuming the target is on the other team, or friendly fire is on).

As stated, Evolve came up with this whole rocketing business, I believe. Launching-unfortunate-victims-into-the-air code is from PropHunt, slay-and-give-kill-credit code is from Goomba Stomp. Slaying-people mechanic based on Admin Smite. AttachParticle() and DeleteParticle() are from Achievement Trophy.


VIDEO DEMONSTRATION



COMMANDS

• sm_rocket <player> rockets a player. That's it. Can be anyone who's alive.

CVARS

• sm_rocket_delay (def. 1.0) - Time, in seconds, to delay the target's death.
• sm_rocket_force (up to 3.9, def. 1.0) - How fast the target is launched upwards, also translates into how far. 1= 1500 hammer units/second, 2.66=4000, Evolve's rocket velocity.
• sm_rocket_explosion (1/0, def. 1) - If 1, explosion added to rocket deaths for extra boom.
• sm_rocket_trail (1/0, def. 1) - If 1, a rocket trail is added to the target while flying.

CHANGES

~~ 1.1 (April 8, 2012) ~~

~~ 1.0 (March 30, 2012) ~~

Tested on TF2, but should work on any game. Thanks, and have fun!

Interesting plugin, can you tie it to a custom admin flag?

You can use overrides to make it useable by certain flags.

Tomorrow (April 2) I'll probably add adminmenu support. Was gonna do it for 1.0, dunno why I didn't.

Only there people can use rocketme without the need of a admin, usefull if damage is only 300 to get to higher places as a heavy. Also does this kill spy's with dead ringer and scouts with boink?

Plugin-assisted jumping? That's bad IMO, this one's strictly for slaying only.

Yep. Only people that haven't died so far from this are the players that Boss Battles 1.2 (at the moment) glitches and spawns as TFClass_Unknown, but you shouldn't encounter those guys in a real game. (or at all, once I fix that glitch)

[snelvuur]

Ofcourse yours is written different, but with that other plugin you could rocketme and time it just right and explode next to another person and that person would die from the explosion too. Dont know if yours checks that too. (just saying from my experience with that other plugin)
