[Solved] How to handle flash-assisted

Hello everyone! I am writing a plugin to catch the events I need on the server. How can i catch whether there was a flash assist at the time of the kill? If so, from whom?

What game? I assume CSGO. I don't know any other Source game with flash assists

See the CSGO event list on the wiki

"assister" and "assistedflash" is probably what you are looking for.

Yes, its CSGO
assistedflash in player_death show only was the victim blinded by an assistant. But if the damage assistant is one person, and the blindness is another its not working

You would probably have to track every flashbang and the owner of it (Player who threw the flashbang) with the "flashbang_detonate" event and then check which player got blinded by it and for how long using a trace ray and the "m_flFlashDuration" netprop on players. If the player then dies within the flashbang duration you can know who threw the flashbang.
