[#Barracuda]

Hi, I'm currently working on a rocket tennis map for Team Fortress 2 (watch this video for a rocket tennis example) and I like to replace the barely used soldier with a SourceMod-plugin.

So I need to spawn a rocket manually, since it isn't possible to give the pyro a foreign weapon anymore.
This is what I got so far:

PHP Code:

#pragma semicolon 1

#include <sourcemod>
#include <sdktools>

new ent_rocket = -1;
new float:rocket_speed = 800.0;

public Plugin:myinfo =
{
    name = "Rocketspawner",
    author = "Barracuda",
    description = "",
    version = "1.0",
    url = ""
};

public OnPluginStart()
{
    RegConsoleCmd("rocket_spawn", Command_Spawn);
}

public Action:Command_Spawn(client, args)
{
    CreateTimer(1.0, SpawnRocket, client);
    return Plugin_Handled;    
}

public Action:SpawnRocket(Handle:timer, any:client)
{
    new Float:ori[3];
    new Float:ang[3];
    
    GetClientEyeAngles(client, ang); 
    GetClientAbsOrigin(client, ori);
    
    ori[2] += 10;

    ent_rocket = CreateEntityByName("tf_projectile_rocket");
    
    SetEntDataEnt(ent_rocket, FindSendPropInfo("CTFProjectile_Rocket", "m_hOwnerEntity"), client, true);
    SetEntData(ent_rocket, FindSendPropInfo("CTFProjectile_Rocket", "m_bCritical"), 1, 1, true);
    SetEntData(ent_rocket, FindSendPropInfo("CTFProjectile_Rocket", "m_iTeamNum"), GetClientTeam(client), true);
    SetEntDataVector(ent_rocket, FindSendPropInfo("CTFProjectile_Rocket", "m_angRotation"), ang, true); 
    
    DispatchSpawn(ent_rocket);
    TeleportEntity(ent_rocket, ori, NULL_VECTOR, NULL_VECTOR);
}

public OnGameFrame()
{
    if(!IsValidEntity(ent_rocket))
        return;

    new Float:ang[3], Float:fwd[3], Float:right[3], Float:up[3];

    GetEntDataVector(ent_rocket, FindSendPropInfo("CTFProjectile_Rocket", "m_angRotation"), ang);
    GetAngleVectors(ang, fwd, right, up);
    ScaleVector(fwd, rocket_speed);

    TeleportEntity(ent_rocket, NULL_VECTOR, NULL_VECTOR, fwd);
} 


First, I tried without the OnGameFrame()-forward. The rocket appeared correctly, but was just hovering above the ground, doing nothing. I also tried to change m_vInitialVelocity and some other vectors, but without success.

Then I found this thread and reused the code to move the rocket manually with each frame, now the rocket actually flies but it doesn't do any damage on impact.

Does anybody know how to spawn a rocket projectile that is moving for itself and actually does damage?

You can have weapons shoot different projectiles, if I remember correctly teddyruxpin edited his pyro's CTX file to shoot rockets instead of fire. Just search for CTX on the forums to learn more.

Coming Soon.

Oh my, sounds almost as fun as spawning thousands of sentrys.

[#Barracuda]

Ok, that could work... I'll try it. Thanks

You tease! Gimme Gimee

And for the OP you can modify the projectile type of the shotgun to fire rockets instead of the standard shotty shells.

I've been looking for you for days. Get on IRC damnit.

[Neo Cool Dude]

How did you change the projectile in console?

[bl4nk]

It's something pRED has been working on with me. It's not released right now as there's still some work to do on it.

I am out of town in Chicago for an event. I will try and get online later tonight.
