Already thought about that. ;) Thanks again!

how can i know if the bullet that was shot hit an alive player or anything else? (im only using awp/scout for this)

Look at ham_const.inc for Ham_TraceAttack.

Took about 2 months to guess what "this" meant, lol. I'm still a noob with hamsandwich and ham_traceattack returns 5 results with the search engine on the forum (also, the ham_const just gives basic info).

I believe that i need to give the attacked entity instead of the attacker, so i'd need to executeham on every player and compare the attacker id with the "invoker" of the gun fire event. I think there should be another (more efficient) way of doing what i want. I don't need to know the id of the player nor the aim origin or angles, just a true for you_hit_a_player and a false for you_hit_nothing. Maybe fakemeta is enough for the task?

Thanks.

Just register Ham_TraceAttack with entity "player", then, when the forward is called, check if idattacker is alive and then if idattacker weapon is a scout/awp.

I was just about to ask for more help but then i said to myself "come on, think harder" So i started doing tests until i came up with a solution using the ham_traceattack and the forward for weapon fire.

I found that ham_traceattack gets called first, so i store the player id on a value and then on the other forward i check if the id is the same or not. I'll post the code for anyone that might find it helpful.

PHP Code:

#include <amxmodx>
#include <fakemeta>
#include <hamsandwich>

new g_fwid, g_guns_eventids_bitsum
new player_shots[33], tmpattacker

new const g_guns_events[][] = {
    "events/awp.sc",
    "events/scout.sc"
}
public plugin_precache() {
    g_fwid = register_forward(FM_PrecacheEvent,"fwPrecacheEvent",1)
}
public fwPrecacheEvent(type, const name[]) {
    for (new i = 0; i < sizeof g_guns_events; ++i) {
        if (equal(g_guns_events[i], name)) {
            g_guns_eventids_bitsum |= (1<<get_orig_retval())
            return FMRES_HANDLED
        }
    }
    return FMRES_IGNORED
}
public plugin_init() {
    register_plugin("This is","a","Test")
    
    unregister_forward(FM_PrecacheEvent, g_fwid, 1)
    register_forward(FM_PlaybackEvent, "fwPlaybackEvent")
    
    RegisterHam(Ham_TraceAttack,"player","fwd_Ham_TraceAttack")
    register_event("DeathMsg", "player_dies","a")
}
public fwd_Ham_TraceAttack(this,idattacker,Float:damage,Float:direction[3],traceresult,damagebits) {
    if(is_user_alive(idattacker)) {
        static wpn ; wpn = get_user_weapon(idattacker)
        if(wpn==CSW_AWP||wpn==CSW_SCOUT) {
            player_shots[idattacker] ++
            tmpattacker = idattacker
            //Testing pruposes
            client_print(0,print_chat,"HAM: id = %d score = %d",idattacker,player_shots[idattacker])
        }
    }
}
public fwPlaybackEvent(flags, invoker, eventid) {
    if (!(g_guns_eventids_bitsum & (1<<eventid))||!(is_user_alive(invoker))) {
        return FMRES_IGNORED
    }
    if(invoker!=tmpattacker) {
        player_shots[invoker] = 0
        //Testtesttest
        client_print(0,print_chat,"id = %d score %d",invoker,player_shots[invoker])
    }
    tmpattacker = 0
    return FMRES_HANDLED
}
public player_dies() {
    static player ; player = read_data(2)
    if(is_user_connected(player)) {
        player_shots[player] = 0
    }
}
public client_disconnect(id) {
    player_shots[id] = 0
} 


The fun part comes next, because if the player gets a score of 2 or more points, i'll play a "impressive" quake3 sound and show the icon over the player's head.

Thanks conorr and danielkza (and ven of course for making the base).

This is extremely useful. Bump for the great justice.

Is this method still the best way?

[Arkshine]

All is depending your need, but it you need to catch each shot and nothing else, yes.
