And keep having the hooks running at all times?

Why not? It's more efficient that way rather than unhooking when the player isn't incapacitated anymore and hooking once more when they are again every time. All the hook needs to have are valid and incapacitated checks so the plugin wouldn't do anything to invalid and non incapacitated players.

Just posting, the game seems to process the client as if it can look around 360° while incapped either the CTerrorPlayer entity was changed to nolonger support showing this, probs why the l4d2 character turning is fucked or it is being changed later on.

PHP Code:

long double __cdecl CTerrorPlayerAnimState::GetLookRange(CTerrorPlayerAnimState *this)
{
    int v1; // eax
    long double result; // fst7

    v1 = CBaseEntity::GetTeamNumber(this->Client);
    result = 45.0;
    if ( IsASurvivorTeam(v1, v1) )
    {
        result = 90.0;
        if ( (this->Client->vptr->CCSPlayer.IsIncapacitated)(this->Client) )
            result = 360.0;
    }
    return result;
}

Alright, seems like that function is on the server-side of things, but since I don't have the pro version of IDA or any pseudocode for the binaries, I'm unable to dig further into this.

For now, I'm wondering about CCSPlayer::IsIncapacitated and CTerrorPlayer::IsIncapacitated.
Could CCSPlayer::IsIncapacitated seem to be unable to return the actual incapacitation state?

Tbh i never really checked that function, ill have a look see whats what later, also ghidra is free and has decompiler

EDIT: the check is fine, thats just the name of the member for the struct, offset 505(linux) is CTerrorPlayer::IsIncapacitated since it's using the CTerrorPlayer object.

You can always patch out the check to see for you self.

Well, I've given up on trying to make this fix.

It'd most likely require memory patching, or a really janky and non-intuitive alternative.
Or, at worst, is unable to be fixed due to it being potentially client-side.

And all that effort, for a rather meaningless-in-gameplay thing.

To be honest, I don't know about memory-patching, and I can't seem to find guides on them.
Along with me wanting to stay away from Sourcemod, and focusing on my simple animation projects.

Woe betide the person that tries to understand the mess that is obfuscated code.



can one of you sourcemod wizards miraculously fix this???
