[TF2]Realistic/Campaign mod for TF2 - almost done

cellercelleriac · **Author**

Hi everyone,
I´ve always liked playing tf2 but my head hurts from it sometimes. So I came up with this new gameplay mod which would focus more on teamwork and scheming and a little less on skills executed in real time.

THE PLUGIN IS ALREADY WORKING! It´s a complete mess though. I´m not good at coding (I tried to learn sourcepawn just for this mod) so I need help with revising it. Any help just as checking the main weaknesses of my poor scripting and suggesting a correction would be greatly appreciated.

Note - the map file required for this mod is too big, I can´t upload it here. Part of the mod is coded there (respawn times etc.), that all works fine though.

A couple of things I'd suggest:

Instead of enabling cheats in order to force the round to win, just strip the flag from it instead.
Instead of using server commands to create the weapons for the player, I'd use TF2Items to just manually do that.
If you hook Spawn instead of SpawnPost for ammo packs and just return stop on it, that'll do the same thing as killing them after they've spawned already.
I'd move the server commands which you execute OnMapStart to OnConfigsExecuted instead and use ConVar functions instead to set them.

Code:

stock void TF2_ForceWin(TFTeam team = TFTeam_Unassigned)
{
	int iFlags = GetCommandFlags("mp_forcewin");
	SetCommandFlags("mp_forcewin", iFlags &= ~FCVAR_CHEAT);
	ServerCommand("mp_forcewin %i", view_as<int>(team));
	SetCommandFlags("mp_forcewin", iFlags);
}

Thanks a lot.
The cheat flag and the ammo pack thing works great, I´ve already corrected that in my code.
(I haven´t tried to mess with the ConVars yet.)

I can´t run the give item stock though (I have included the defines). I have searched the internet but I couldn´t find a guide on that. I tried to hook it somehow but nothing worked (error 100: function prototypes do not match). Could you please explain how to do that?

I´ve updated the script in the attachments.

By the way, did you write all those stocks? Props to that. I´ll be returning to that a lot (if I manage to get it working).

Make sure the parameters all match the same data types. Yeah, I wrote/added/edited most of them.

Ok, I managed to get it working. I had completely misunderstood how these stocks work, this is easier to use than I thought

.

However putting in more than one attribute doesn´t work for me. How do you do that?

Code:

  TF2_RemoveWeaponSlot(client, 0);
  TF2_GiveItem(client, "tf_weapon_scattergun", 45, TF2Quality_Normal, 100, "'2 ; 5' '44 ; 0'"); //compiled, but script cowardly refused
                                                                                                 //to add invalid attribute index 0 (in game, after spawn)
                                                                                                 //(both attributes alone work though)

I think I should have better posted this in Scripting..
