Invisible knife in TT, as in a HNS
HELP!

[GetRektByNoob]

you need to post something (code, how to recreate....) to get help... creating a thread that says in 1 short sentence what's the problem and "HELP!" isn't enough information for someone to help you...

What I need is to take the knife away from the tt, that the tt can't see the knife, that he has it invisible.

[GetRektByNoob]

First can you some code to work off it or some information
Second what is tt
Third to delete someone knife you can do

PHP Code:

RemovePlayerItem(client, GetPlayerWeaponSlot(client,1)); 


I'm not sure if the Remove function it's something from sourcemod or I created bc I can't remember and i can't check the api since I'm from the phone, and last thing I'm also not sure If slot 1 is the knife slot so you need to check it.

RemovePlayerItem will detach the item from the player you need to kill the entity too , also 1 is secondary and 2 is melee.

PHP Code:

int weaponIndex = GetPlayerWeaponSlot(client, 2);
if(weaponIndex != -1)
{
    RemovePlayerItem(client, weaponIndex);
    AcceptEntityInput(weaponIndex, "Kill");
} 


But this will not make the knife invisible it will remove it , you can fake the invisible thing by giving the knife back to the player when you need the knife to be visible and remove it when you want the knife to be invisible.
You can set the alpha of an entity so you can do this too for the knife (which is a better way ):

PHP Code:

stock void MakeKnifeInvisible(int client, bool set = true)
{ 
        int entity = GetPlayerWeaponSlot(client, 2); 
        if (entity != -1)
        { 
            SetEntityRenderMode(entity, RENDER_TRANSCOLOR); 
            SetEntityRenderColor(entity, _, _, _, set ? 0:255); 
        } 
} 


AFAIk,even if the knife is invisible the entity still exists and will do damage.

Can you explain what is the difference between AcceptIntityInput("kill") and RemovePlayerItem?
also making the knife invisible the player will still see that be holds something in his hand and at the right bottom he can still see the knife icon so it's pretty useless...

RemovePlayerItem will remove the weapon from the player but the entity will still exist. -> https://sm.alliedmods.net/new-api/sd...movePlayerItem ( the wiki is not really specific about this )
AcceptEntityInput invokes a input method of an entity in this case the kill method which will kill the entity.
Well yeah but it may be the behaviour he was looking for that's why I listed that method too.

[GetRektByNoob]

where can i find all the AcceptEntityInput methods and examples if you don't mind...?

[ShD3luxe]

https://developer.valvesoftware.com/...egory:Entities here are all entities from valve you can find all the inputs in the Inputs section of each entity. There are not many stuff to explain you just need to get the index of that entity and then using AcceptEntityInput u can call that input function , there are also flags for each entity which are useful .

Here is the api for AcceptEntityInput : https://sm.alliedmods.net/new-api/sd...eptEntityInput
Also to set a flag you can do :

	new ent = -1; 
	while((ent = FindEntityByClassname(ent, "func_button")) != -1) 
	{ 
		SetEntProp(ent, Prop_Data, "m_spawnflags", GetEntProp(ent, Prop_Data, "m_spawnflags")|512);    
		SetEntProp(ent, Prop_Data, "m_spawnflags", GetEntProp(ent, Prop_Data, "m_spawnflags")|256); 
	}

This is for the func_button entiti and will set the flag 512( which is for taking damage and 256 which is for touching)
This is just an example from one of my plugins.You can do many stuff with entities in sm .
EDIT: Those methods are different for each entity (some may be the same) but you will find them all in that link.
For inputs with parameters check this link : https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=177591
