Is such thing possible? May I have an example code of how to "lie" to the engine that two entities are touching?

Teleport one entity to another and back for 0.001 sec

I have no clue how to use a signature that forces pounce. So asking for a fake touch increases the chance I get help since it's not limited to Left 4 Dead 2.

Nice (video*) words from russian prezident
nah, i'm not strong in signatures, maybe @bailopan or @peace-maker will help you.

Sounds good, no action. *Donald

You can try creating an SDKCall for CBaseEntity::Touch( CBaseEntity* pOther ) which (I think) gets called when 2 entities touch each other.

Here is some code that should do that:

PHP Code:

Handle g_hSDK_Touch;

public void OnPluginStart()
{
    Handle hGameConf = LoadGameConfigFile("sdkhooks.games");
    if(hGameConf == INVALID_HANDLE)
    {
        SetFailState("GameConfigFile sdkhooks.games was not found");
        return;
    }
    
    StartPrepSDKCall(SDKCall_Entity);
    PrepSDKCall_SetFromConf(hGameConf, SDKConf_Virtual, "Touch");
    PrepSDKCall_AddParameter(SDKType_CBaseEntity, SDKPass_Pointer);
    g_hSDK_Touch = EndPrepSDKCall();
    CloseHandle(hGameConf);

    if(g_hSDK_Touch == INVALID_HANDLE)
    {
        SetFailState("Unable to prepare virtual function CBaseEntity::Touch");
        return;
    }
}

// later when you want to call it
SDKCall(g_hSDK_Touch, entity1, entity2); 


This will just call the Touch function for the 2 entities which should simulate them "touching" (or at least the code that runs when they do), but it might not necessarily work the way you expect to or give you the effect you're looking for.

Doesn't work... Any method to trick the game further? Combine touch with think ETC? I don't understand the core of how these things work.

[hmmmmm]

Can we see how you're calling the function? Also you said you're doing this to "force pounce", can you give more details about that. There's prob a better way of doing this.

It works for some results, maybe you should give more details about what you are trying todo.
For example: If I like to fake a player touching a trigger_teleport it works, but if you try to have positive feedbacks on collisionhooks this won't work.
