Since walking is done purely clientside, there was no easy way of finding out when player is holding the walk button. However the client sends certain information to the server regarding their forward and side buttons in a class called UserCmd. These are the speeds you move at.

Using FAKEMETA, we create the FM_CmdStart forward to capture the forwardmove and sidemove variables.

Then using the walkspeed which is MAXSPEED * 0.52, we check if forward/side moves are lower than that amount. 0.52 was retrieved from the client cvar "cl_movespeedkey" which is changeable, so this will break if the client changes it. It's their own fault for trying to cheat/mess around.

Heres the full code. Enjoy.

plugin_init()
    register_forward( FM_CmdStart, "FMCmdStart" );

public FMCmdStart( id, uc_handle, randseed )
{
    new Float:fmove, Float:smove;
    get_uc(uc_handle, UC_ForwardMove, fmove);
    get_uc(uc_handle, UC_SideMove, smove );

    new Float:maxspeed;
    pev(id, pev_maxspeed, maxspeed);
    new Float:walkspeed = (maxspeed * 0.52); 
    fmove = floatabs( fmove );
    smove = floatabs( smove );
    
    if(fmove <= walkspeed && smove <= walkspeed && !(fmove == 0.0 && smove == 0.0))
    {
        client_print( id, print_center, "WALKING" );
    }
    else
    {
        client_print( id, print_center, "RUNNING" );    
    }
}

The reason I created this, was to make the walk button a sprint button instead of walking. By increasing the maxspeed when walking, and returning it to default when running.

Good job.

I thought this was an obvious way to do it, and I've used a similar method a number of times to get sprinting/walking, but then again some people may not think of this so ya probably worth showing to the newer scripters.

it is easy to do this in client side so what is the reason of making such things in srv side at all ?

What you mean it is easy to do this in client side? This was meant for server side detection. Since you do not have access to the client side.

So this doesnt work?
If so can you explain why to?

PHP Code:

#include <amxmodx>

#define PLUGIN "New Plug-In"
#define VERSION "1.0"
#define AUTHOR "author"


public plugin_init() {
    register_plugin(PLUGIN, VERSION, AUTHOR)
    
    register_clcmd("+speed", "cmdwalk")
}

public cmdwalk(id)
{
    //something...
}

Correct. That won't work. You can't catch client commands in that fashion. You must use the way provided if you want efficiency.

It happens for many things. For example, you can't catch +voicecomm (or whatever the voice command is). There's actually a thread in scripting help for that now.

It was just an idea, it looked to simple so i though: let's ask.

Thanks (again), wrecked_

Did someone get to work this as forwards:
Ham_StartSneaking
&
Ham_StopSneaking

If yes, could I see the code ?

What are you using it for? I'm sure it could be done another way.
