Not many people understand what they doing. Some of them just blindly copy the code from somewhere.

where you get the information from what part of the message is what?

Firstly i've got it from some kind of message/event list. And Message Logging plugin by Damaged Soul proved that numerous times. Though for CS i've never saw the first argument other than zero. It's happen because dmg_save pev is never changed for a player for a some reason.

Well, what is dmg_save?

Yea, I am one of those persons. Well, not actually blind, but its a bit blurry to say the least. Maybe the message is differant in TFC.

This is what i get from a Damage message in TFC.

L 10/04/2006 - 19:57:42: Logging started for message (Damage "72") L 10/04/2006 - 19:57:44: MessageBegin (Damage "72") (Destination "One<1>") (Args "6") (Entity "1") (Classname "player") (Netname "Lt Llama") (Origin "0.000000 0.000000 0.000000") L 10/04/2006 - 19:57:44: Arg 1 (Byte "0") L 10/04/2006 - 19:57:44: Arg 2 (Byte "0") L 10/04/2006 - 19:57:44: Arg 3 (Byte "0") L 10/04/2006 - 19:57:44: Arg 4 (Coord "148.009201") L 10/04/2006 - 19:57:44: Arg 5 (Coord "-338.805358") L 10/04/2006 - 19:57:44: Arg 6 (Coord "-111.968750")

Im afraid i dont know what Im looking for.
Im still confused why I get a 3 digit id number from a player (me or a bot) in a function which is said to return

get_user_attacker - Returns the index of an attacking player. index is a player index from 1 to 32.

[Silencer123]

If the number is 0 it is worldspawn. (Drowning, Falling, etc.)
If it is higher than 32 (33, 34, ..., 194, ..., 1232, ..., 7045, ...)
it is an Entity. (trigger_hurt, func_door, func_train, any kind of Monster, etc.)
Try adding is_user_connected check.

Huh! This is what it returns

Whats returned with XxAvalanchexX code


It thinks the attacker is a tf_rpg_rocket when it should return the player id i guess. As no second or third argument is there it SHOULD return the id according to
http://www.amxmodx.org/funcwiki.php?...cker&go=search.

And now i used

register_event("Damage", "Event_Damage","b","2!0");

Wont do me any good as I cant get a correct id to check.
I tried it but it cant find me as the attacker, just my weapon.

Your Weapon is connected to the Server, but you are not? O_o

I need a break

[Zenith77]

No see, I told you to do a simple check, but you misinterperting where to put it or what to check for.

I'm not saying do this

public MyFuncForDamageOrWhatever(id)
{
     if (!is_user_alive(id))
          // Code...
}

But this:

public MyForDamageOrWhatever(id)
{
      // Normal code...
      new attacker = get_user_attacker(/*params here*/);
      if (!is_user_alive(attacker))
           // User is not alive, or it's some other entity.
}

Hope you understand now.

"index is a player index from 1 to 32" is just something I added to about every single function that references the word "index" in regards to players (on grounds of consistency, most original functions had them, but new ones had the phrase left out), when I was still a part of the funcwiki.

get_user_attacker just returns your pev->dmg_inflictor, basically. If it's a player, it returns that. If it's an entity but not a player, it checks to see if the entity has an owner which is a player. If so, it returns the owner. Otherwise it returns the entity itself. In this case, you're getting hit with a rocket (I assume), so your dmg_inflictor is being set to the rocket entity. I'm surprised that the rocket entity doesn't have an owner set though.
