Hi, I am new to sourcepawn and I want to spawn Marker at player's aim location.

What I am trying to do is something like this:

PHP Code:

public Action LookAtWeapon(int client, int args)
{
    if (IsClientInGame(client) && IsPlayerAlive(client)) {
        TE_SetupBeamRingPoint(const float center[3], 2, 2, gI_BeamSprite, gI_HaloSprite, 0, 60, 0.1, 6.0, 0.00, color, 10, 0);
    }
    return Plugin_Handled;
} 


How to get center of the BeamRingPoint at player's aim location? I was searching a while but really I don't know.
Thanks for all replies.

Can you clarify your question?
Do you want to know how to get the coordinates a player is lloking at?
Do you want to know how to position the beam centred where the player is looking at?

PHP Code:

stock GetAimOrigin(client, Float:hOrigin[3]) 
{
    new Float:vAngles[3], Float:fOrigin[3];
    GetClientEyePosition(client,fOrigin);
    GetClientEyeAngles(client, vAngles);

    new Handle:trace = TR_TraceRayFilterEx(fOrigin, vAngles, MASK_SHOT, RayType_Infinite, TraceEntityFilterPlayer);

    if(TR_DidHit(trace)) 
    {
        TR_GetEndPosition(hOrigin, trace);
        CloseHandle(trace);
        return 1;
    }

    CloseHandle(trace);
    return 0;
}

public bool:TraceEntityFilterPlayer(entity, contentsMask) 
{
    return entity > GetMaxClients();
}  

public Action LookAtWeapon(int client, int args)
{
    int color[4];
    color[0] = 55;
    color[1] = 55;
    color[2] = 255;
    color[3] = 255;
    
    if (IsClientInGame(client) && IsPlayerAlive(client)) {
        TE_SetupBeamRingPoint(GetAimOrigin(client, float hOrigin[3]), 2, 2, gI_BeamSprite, gI_HaloSprite, 0, 60, 0.1, 6.0, 0.00, color, 10, 0);
        PrintToChat(client, "[info] Spawned marker.");
    }
    return Plugin_Handled;
}

PHP Code:

bool TracePlayerAim(int client, float vec[3]) {
    if (!IsClientInGame(client))
        return false;

    float vecangles[3], vecorigin[3];
    GetClientEyeAngles(client, vecangles);
    GetClientEyePosition(client, vecorigin);

    Handle traceray = TR_TraceRayFilterEx(vecorigin, vecangles, MASK_SHOT_HULL, RayType_Infinite, TraceEntityFilterPlayers);
    if (TR_DidHit(traceray)) {
        TR_GetEndPosition(vec, traceray);
        delete traceray;

        return true;
    }
    delete traceray;
    return false;
}

stock bool TraceEntityFilterPlayers(int entity, int contentsMask) {
    return entity > MaxClients;
}
