Just trying to kill an ent with a command

I need to trace where the player is looking at... so i tried this from a plugin:

PHP Code:

Handle:TraceRay(client)
{
    new Float:startent[3], Float:angle[3], Float:end[3];
    GetClientEyePosition(client, startent);
    GetClientEyeAngles(client, angle);
    GetAngleVectors(angle, end, NULL_VECTOR, NULL_VECTOR);
    NormalizeVector(end, end);

    startent[0] += end[0] * 10.0;
    startent[1] += end[1] * 10.0;
    startent[2] += end[2] * 10.0;

    end[0] = startent[0] + end[0] * 80.0;
    end[1] = startent[1] + end[1] * 80.0;
    end[2] = startent[2] + end[2] * 80.0;
    
    return TR_TraceRayFilterEx(startent, end, CONTENTS_SOLID, RayType_EndPoint, FilterPlayers);
} 


And now i tried to make the player look the ent so he can pick it up...

PHP Code:

public Action:Cmd_RemoveMines(client, argc)
{
    if(!b_allow_pickup || IsFakeClient(client) || !IsPlayerAlive(client))
        return Plugin_Handled;

    new Handle:trace = TraceRay(client);
    
    decl Float:end[3];
    if (TR_DidHit(trace) && TR_GetEntityIndex(trace) < 1)
    {
        TR_GetEndPosition(end, trace);
        CloseHandle(trace);

        new i = -1;
        while ((i = FindEntityByClassname(i, "prop_physics_override")) != -1 && GetClientByLasermine(i) == client)
            PickupLasermine(client, i, client);
    }
    return Plugin_Handled;
} 


Its kinda working because he just needs to be close to the mine and he can pick it up, not need to be looking at it annnnnd here comes the problem, when he pick 1 mine (PickupLasermine) it took it all and not just the ent he has in the front

So im trying editing the PickupLasermine thing and seems to KillHierarchy removes all the entities parents in the map, so idk what to use to kill the ent he is looking at.

PHP Code:

PickupLasermine(client, lasermine, owner)
{
    if (i_clients_amount[client] >= 0 && i_clients_amount[client] == AddClientLasermines(client))
    {
        return;
    }
    
    new Action:result = Forward_OnPrePickup(client, lasermine, owner);
    
    switch (result)
    {
        case Plugin_Handled, Plugin_Stop :
        {
            return;
        }
    }
    //I know KillHierarchy doesn't work for what i am trying to do.
    //AcceptEntityInput(lasermine, "KillHierarchy");
    OnEntityDestroyed(int lasermine);
    if (i_clients_amount[client] >= 0)
        PrintHintText(client, "%t", "Mines", i_clients_amount[client]);
    else
        PrintHintText(client, "%t", "Infinity mines");
    EmitSoundToClient(client, SND_BUYMINE);
    
    Forward_OnPostPickup(client, lasermine, owner);
}

...
AcceptEntityInput(lasermine, "Kill"); ??

*edit
I'm guessing.

No sir
I tried it to (Forgot to say in the thread), didn't work, it takes all of the entities, i think its more a problem about checking 1 ent from the owner, idk how to check just 1 ent, because it check all the ents of the owner, and if the function goes continue, it take all of them

If you need to pickup mines that are close to player you can just get two vectors (Player's origin and mine's origin) and check GetVectorDistance <= REQUIRED_DISTANCE_TO_PICKUP. And after that just use RemoveEntity.

EDIT: Also, if you want to pickup mine that player is looking at, first you can use GetClientAimTarget( client, false ) (after that check if returned index is player's mine) and then you can do same what i said above. And you dont need to use any loops if you want to pickup only one mine each time.

Example:

int iTarget = GetClientAimTarget( client, false );
if ( iTarget != -1 && IsLasermine( iTarget ) && GetClientByLasermine( iTarget ) == client ) {
	float vecTargetPos[ 3 ], vecPlayerPos[ 3 ];
	GetClientAbsOrigin( client, vecPlayerPos );
	GetEntPropVector( iTarget, Prop_Send, "m_vecOrigin", vecTargetPos );
	if ( GetVectorDistance( vecPlayerPos, vecTargetPos ) <= REQUIRED_DISTANCE_TO_PICKUP ) {
		// Your code on mine pickup
		RemoveEntity( iTarget );
	}
}

Well i tried this, but is not working, something im doing wrong, but can't figure it out what, i tried like 4 or 5 different ways to do that

PHP Code:

PickupLasermine(client, lasermine, owner)
{
    if (i_clients_amount[client] >= 0 && i_clients_amount[client] == AddClientLasermines(client))
    {
        return;
    }
    
    new Action:result = Forward_OnPrePickup(client, lasermine, owner);
    
    switch (result)
    {
        case Plugin_Handled, Plugin_Stop :
        {
            return;
        }
    }
    
    int iTarget = GetClientAimTarget( client, false );
    if ( iTarget != -1 && IsEntityLasermine( iTarget ) && GetClientByLasermine( iTarget ) == client ) 
    {
        float vecTargetPos[ 3 ], vecPlayerPos[ 3 ];
        GetClientAbsOrigin( client, vecPlayerPos );
        GetEntPropVector( iTarget, Prop_Send, "m_vecOrigin", vecTargetPos );
        /*if ( GetVectorDistance( vecPlayerPos, vecTargetPos ) <= 60.0 ) {
            // Your code on mine pickup
            RemoveEntity( lasermine );
        */
        RemoveEntity( iTarget );
        //AcceptEntityInput(lasermine, "KillHierarchy");
    }

    if (i_clients_amount[client] >= 0)
        PrintHintText(client, "%t", "Mines", i_clients_amount[client]);
    else
        PrintHintText(client, "%t", "Infinity mines");
    EmitSoundToClient(client, SND_BUYMINE);
    
    Forward_OnPostPickup(client, lasermine, owner);
}
