I'm using this modified code originally created by Natsheh, to create a zone that would slap users who are outside of it, but it just kills me instantly as soon as I type /create.

PHP Code:

#include <amxmodx>
#include <fakemeta>
#include <xs>

new const g_szSprite[ ] = "sprites/laserbeam.spr";

new g_iSprite;

public plugin_init( )
{    
    register_clcmd( "say /create", "@CreateZone" );
}

public plugin_precache( ) 
{ 
    g_iSprite = precache_model( g_szSprite ); 
} 

@CreateZone( id )
{
    new Float:fOrigin_Center[ 3 ]
    pev( id, pev_origin, fOrigin_Center );
    
    const iDivide = 128;
    new Float:fOrigin[ 3 ]
    //new Float:fAngle[ 3 ], Float:AngleMulScalar = ( 360.0 / iDivide ), Float:fVector[ 3 ];
    //const Float:iRadius = 500.0;
    
    new Array:aTempArray = ArrayCreate( sizeof fOrigin, 1 );
    
    for( new i; i < iDivide; i++ )
    {
        //angle_vector( fAngle, ANGLEVECTOR_RIGHT, fVector );
        //xs_vec_mul_scalar( fVector, iRadius, fVector );
        //xs_vec_add( fOrigin_Center, fVector, fOrigin );
        
        ArrayPushArray( aTempArray, fOrigin );
        
        //fAngle[ 1 ] += AngleMulScalar;
        CreateWall( fOrigin /*,fAngle*/ );
    }
    
    new szPlayers[ 32 ], iNum, iTempID;
    get_players( szPlayers, iNum, "ach" );
    
    for( new i, Float:fUserOrigin[ 3 ]; i < iNum; i++ )
    {
        iTempID = szPlayers[ i ];
        pev( iTempID, pev_origin, fUserOrigin );
        
        for( new x; x < ArraySize( aTempArray ); x++ )
        {
            ArrayGetArray( aTempArray, x, fOrigin );

                    fUserOrigin[ 1 ] > fOrigin[ 1 ] || fUserOrigin[ 1 ] < fOrigin[ 1 ] )
            {
                user_slap( iTempID, random_num( 2, 10 ) )
            }
        }
    }
    
    ArrayDestroy( aTempArray );
}

CreateWall( Float:fOrigin[ 3 ]/*, Float:fAngle[ 3 ]*/)

I think you should break after user_slap, probably it keeps slapping the player until he dies. Maybe you can use a task to periodically slap the player while he's in the zone.

Yea thanks I'm not dying instantly now, still no beam appears, am I setting it wrong?

[Ghosted]

if( fUserOrigin[ 0 ] < fOrigin[ 0 ] || fUserOrigin[ 0 ] < fOrigin[ 0 ] ||
                    fUserOrigin[ 1 ] > fOrigin[ 1 ] || fUserOrigin[ 1 ] < fOrigin[ 1 ] )

Why that code checks same thing twice

[edon1337]

I made something but it slaps me when I'm close to the beams, like, I'm within the radius but stay close to them, it slaps me. Also when I'm in the radius but in the sky.

PHP Code:

#include < amxmodx >
#include < fakemeta >
#include < xs >

new const g_szSprite[ ] = "sprites/laserbeam.spr";

new g_iSprite;

public plugin_init( )
{
    register_clcmd( "say /sphere", "OnSphere" );
    register_clcmd( "say /remove", "OnRemove" );
}

public plugin_precache( ) 
{ 
    g_iSprite = precache_model( g_szSprite ); 
} 


public OnSphere( id )
{
    set_task( 1.0, "RenewSphere", 666, .flags="b" );
}

public OnRemove( id )
{
    remove_task( 666 );
}

public RenewSphere( )
{
    new Float:fOrigin_Center[3] = {-8.5, -0.0, -487.4};
    const divides = 128; 
    new Float:fOrigin[3];
    new Float:fAngle[3], Float:AngleMulScalar = (360.0 / divides), Float:fVector[3];
    const Float:Radius = 2000.0;
    
    for(new i; i < divides; i++)
    {
        angle_vector(fAngle, ANGLEVECTOR_RIGHT, fVector);
        xs_vec_mul_scalar(fVector, Radius, fVector);
        xs_vec_add(fOrigin_Center, fVector, fOrigin);
        
        CreateBeam( fOrigin );
        
        fAngle[1] += AngleMulScalar;
    }

    // check if other players are out and slap them.
    new ent = -1, players[32], pnum, ignore[33];
    while( (ent = engfunc(EngFunc_FindEntityInSphere, ent, fOrigin_Center, Radius)) > 0)
    {
        if(is_user_alive(ent))
        {
            ignore[ent] = true;
        }
    }

    get_players(players,pnum,"a")
    for(new i,player; i < pnum; i++)
    {
        player = players[i];
        if(ignore[player]) continue;

        user_slap(player, random_num(2,10));
    }  
}

CreateBeam( Float:fOrigin[ 3 ] )
{  
    message_begin( MSG_BROADCAST, SVC_TEMPENTITY )
    write_byte( TE_BEAMPOINTS )
    engfunc( EngFunc_WriteCoord, fOrigin[ 0 ] )
    engfunc( EngFunc_WriteCoord, fOrigin[ 1 ] )
    engfunc( EngFunc_WriteCoord, fOrigin[ 2 ] )
    engfunc( EngFunc_WriteCoord, fOrigin[ 0 ] )
    engfunc( EngFunc_WriteCoord, fOrigin[ 1 ] )
    engfunc( EngFunc_WriteCoord, 4000.0 )
    write_short( g_iSprite ) 
    write_byte( 1 ) 
    write_byte( 5 ) 
    write_byte( 30 ) 
    write_byte( 60 ) 
    write_byte( 0 ) 
    write_byte( 255 )
    write_byte( 0 )
    write_byte( 0 )
    write_byte( 127 )
    write_byte( 1 )
    message_end( );
}

Yes cause it is checking origins in all three dimensions and if length is higher than radius it will slap

PS: What is the point of setting tasks with such ids

Yes, I figured as much, but there's something else, I don't know whether it's a normal thing or a miscalculation of the game:

It will be hard to understand, so make sure you read this twice:
- If I set the center origin of the zone in a high place, when you go close to the beams at the same height, you will get slapped as soon as you exceed the area, which is fine, but, if you go on a lower place, you'll get slapped even before touching the beam, is this a normal thing?

Something like this

Thats when you checking height in length too (FIND ENT IN SPHERE Does That), if you don't want then it must be coded manually and distance will be calculated with SquareRootOf(Origin[0] * Origin[0] + Origin[1] * Origin[1])

EDIT

it will be like:

while (ent = find_ent_by_classname(ent, "player"))
{
// get user origin
// create origin which will be : playerOrigin - centerOrigin
// calculate its 2D length with that formula
// check if it is higher than ur radius
}

[edon1337]

Wouldn't saving every beams origin when it is created and then checking with a task work?

PHP Code:

get_distance_f(PlayerOrigin, BeamOrigin) <= 0.0)

(4got get_distance) get_distance_f is same thing as i said there, just check distance between center origin and player and if its higher than radius slap him. Why you need to check with beams, this one is way smooth
