Nice and useful API! I'm sure lots of people will find this useful too.
Just one suggestion, I feel it will be better like this.

PHP Code:

.primarydamage = 15.0,
.secondarydamage = 55.0, 


How about making these 2 parameters be multipliers actually? So the default will be 1.0. The way you have it now, backstabs and headshots will deal always the same damage. Make them multipliers, or maybe you could set the damage in Ham_TraceAttack(FM_TraceLine) pre-forward and it should take in account all multiplying CS Engine does, although I am not sure about this one.

Interesting plugin.
I am currently working on a shop system that features knives and player skins, I will definitely be using this for the skins knives.
But I dislike the knives switching feature, I guess I'll remove it myself.

It won't be always the same, this is the base damage before application. You modify this and THEN it will take hitbox into account, so backstabs and headshots will still deal more damage, the engine calculation is unaffected. You're just changing the parameters it uses for those calculations.

I'll think about adding a cvar, though it's nice for the players to be able to switch to the default weapon (hands) for duels and such, so it's more fair. Maybe a native to return the amount of knives the player has would be enough? So you can check and if they have 1, you just prevent them from buying the weapon. That way they will only be allowed to have one knife but still switch between hands.

Test it please if you haven't yet. TraceAttack is called before all calculations, and TakeDamage is called from TraceAttack, after all calculations are done.

I did test it and it works as I said. I'm not sure how the two events work but I think TraceAttack just determines the hitzones and initial damage, then passes the data to TakeDamage in this format. If you modify the damage in TakeDamage, it will still deal damage based on hitboxes.

Feel free to download the plugin and go try it out.

Edit: You're right, sorry. I take that back, I'll fix it in the next version (gonna hook TraceAttack instead).

Version 1.1 has been released.

Thanks for pointing it out, fixed.

You can now use the lock_knife native for this.

This is an API, so do it yourself.

This is a tool for you to add knives by yourself. If you want to change the damage, you can in the function AddDefaultKnife( ) on line 118.

I'll think about making this a cvar, though.
