Description

This is an incredibly simple plugin. All it does is add a dot in the center of player's screens so that they can aim without going into aim mode. The reason that this plugin exists is because Goldeneye: Source lacks a crosshair. This plugin was made for Goldeneye: Source, but can probably be used with any Source engine game. This is my first plugin, and seeing as it is incredibly simple, it is subject to change if need be. I don't know how much change a dot in the center of the screen could need, but I guess ya never know.



Installation

• Place reticle.smx into sourcemod/plugins
• Place reticle.sp into sourcemod/scripting

PHP Code:

CreateTimer(0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001, Reticle, client, TIMER_REPEAT); 


What?


Use better OnGameFrame => http://docs.sourcemod.net/api/index....d=show&id=579&

Thanks. I've made the changes, I'll have them uploaded shortly.

forward OnGameFrame(1.0, Reticle, client, TIMER_REPEAT);

O.O?

looool I said this:

PHP Code:

#include    <sourcemod>
    
public Plugin:myinfo = 
{
    name = "Reticle",
    author = "Mrs. Nesbitt",
    description = "An aiming reticle designed for Goldeneye: Source",
    url = ""
};



public OnGameFrame()
{
        for (new i = 1; i < MaxClients; i++)
        {
            if (IsClientInGame(i))
            {
                SetHudTextParams(-1.0, -1.0, 0.5, 148,13,8,255, 0, 6.0, 0.1, 0.2);
                ShowHudText(i, -1, "∙");
            }
        }
}

Don't send hudtext every frame. Use a slower timer and increase the hold time of the text.

I did remove the .smx link; as the .smx shouldn't be required (since you use no code from external librairies). Note that simply by uploading the .sp you automatically get a "Get Plugin" link.

But you should still ensure, or at least believe that your code compile when posting it. Your use of OnGameFrame is wrong. See Franc1sco's post for more info.

That is horrid advice. You should be ashamed. OnGameFrame should be avoided at all costs unless absolutely necessary, due to massive CPU rape/overhead. In this case, it is not necessary at all. A timer of 0.5 could suffice, with hud text duration that is just as long, to keep it from flickering.

[Franc1sco]

If he want a very repetible timer the best option is using ongameframe instead of a exaggerated timer like this that he had before:

CreateTimer(0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001, Reticle, client, TIMER_REPEAT);

I just tell a replacement to correct their code, I'm not talking about how to optimize

Please correct your plugin or it will be unapproved.
