[L4D2] About "IsClientInGame()"

Iciaria · **Author**

I'm having some problems writing a plugin.
The code snippet looks like this

PHP Code:


			
public void OnPluginStart()

{

#if DEBUG

        HookEvent("weapon_fire", Event_Weapon_Fire, EventHookMode_PostNoCopy);            

#endif

}



void CheckStatus()

{

        for(int i =1; i<=MaxClients; i++)

        {

//              if(!IS_VALID_SURVIVOR(i))

//              if(!IsValidEntity(i) )

//                      return;

//              PrintToChatAll("1");

//              if(!IsClientConnected(i) )

//                      return;

//              PrintToChatAll("2");

//              if(!IsValiClient(i) )

//                      return;

                if(!IsClientInGame(i) )

                        return;

                if(GetClientTeam(i) == 2)

                {       

                        char name[64];

                        GetClientName(i, name, sizeof(name) );

                        int health = GetEntProp(i, Prop_Send, "m_iHealth");

                        float buffer = GetTempHealth(i);

//GetEntPropFloat(i, Prop_Send, "m_healthBuffer");

                        int count = GetEntProp(i, Prop_Send, "m_currentReviveCount");

                        PrintToChatAll("%s#HP:%d， TEMP:%f， REV:%d,", name, health, buffer, count);

                        PrintToServer("%s#HP:%d， TEMP:%f， REV:%d,", name, health, buffer, count);

                }

        }



}

I run many tests on my multiple servers.
"IsClientInGame()" sometimes thinks the client is not in the game.

The following situations have occurred in the test:

Code:

1.Only the first player to join is considered "in game".
2.Following the first point, when a second player joins the server, the fake client will be considered "Not in game", and . The second player is also sometimes considered "Not in game".
3.All players, fake clients or not, are correctly considered "in game"
4.Only real players are considered "in game"

I also tested in pure server and the result is still the same
Initially, it throws

Code:

 03/24/2023 - 19:59:23: [SM] Call stack trace:
L 03/24/2023 - 19:59:23: [SM]   [0] Event.GetInt
L 03/24/2023 - 19:59:23: [SM]   [1] Line 90, test.sp::Event_Weapon_Fire

After I removed "EventHookMode_PostNoCopy", the error in the log above disappeared. However, the problem is still happening..

I also tried changing the cvars "sv_lan" and "sv_cheats", but, the miracle didn't happen.

Can anyone tell me what exactly is going on?
I'm very confused.......
