Distance between player1 and victim player2

Al3 · **Author**

Since I am returning distance between "player" and a bot,
I need to specify the proper entity class name of the bot.

So what should I use ?
(I couldn't find anything related in the internet)

bot has the classname "player". You can check is_user_bot to know if a user is a bot or not.

Hmm. Then something else is wrong in the code.
I use this:

PHP Code:


			
    new CTent    = fm_find_ent_by_owner(-1, "player", CTs[i]); // get_players CT loop index
    new Tent    = fm_find_ent_by_owner(-1, "player", id);
    new dist    = get_range(CTent, Tent);

do determine range between T and CT.
It looks like get_range enters infinite loop as the function doesn't continue by the call.
And I thought it's because it had no "players" to loop through.

PHP Code:


			
new CTent    = fm_find_ent_by_owner(-1, "player", CTs[i]); // get_players CT loop index
new Tent    = fm_find_ent_by_owner(-1, "player", id);

This does not really make sense, pass directly the player index to get_range. find_ent_by_owner finds an entity when it's owner is know, not needed here. Also don't use fakemeta_util, it's ok for learning, but it's slower than original engine/fakemeta/fun/cstrike functions(look for example at give_item and fm_give_item).

Actually it was entity_range sorry.
get_range doesn't work on counter-strike.
It gives me bad load on inclusion at least.

And thanks. Didn't know entity and client index is one and the same.

If you're trying to find the distance between 2 players just use get_distance or get_distance_f.
