Masks:

i did a function that gives an alien carapace

if(ranks[id]==2){
  ns_set_mask(id,MASK_CARAPACE,1)
  adv[id]=1
 }

but in game he has max of 16 armor... insted of 30...
and when i used silance i could still hear him but i saw the silance
and carapace icon like i have them

i have another problem.. when playing NS maps.. its like i get the upgrades and lose them right away... how can i fix that?

Structures and Impulse:
how can i use the command client_build( index, structure, type, impulse )
how do i get structure types to put in the structure argument and what is impulse?


Can some1 please make a tutorial that explains how to use all the NS.inc commands and tells us about the NS Module...:
Player Mask Constants
Class Constants
Weapon Constants
Hive Trait Constants

what everything's doing and how?

thanks

Ok np:
Player Mask Constants:
The mask list can be found in ns_const.inc

In classic the mask only work if there enought chamber,if you have MASK_CARAPACE and 1 chamber ,you have 16 armor,if you have 3 chamber you have 30 armor.if you have 0 chamber you lose the mask.
The same as the other masks.
the best is you test if he has really the mask:

client_print(id,print_chat,"has mask:%d",ns_get_mask(id,MASK_CARAPACE))

Class Constants:
the classes also stand in ns_const.inc,the fist class CLASS_UNKNOWN has classid 0,CLASS_SKULK has classid 1,...

You can read the clasnumber with

ns_get_class(id)

You can hook if someone change the class with

client_changeclass(id,newclass,oldclass)

Weapon Constants:
You know ns_const.inc,same as the class,WEAPON_NONE = 0,WEAPON_CLAWS = 1,...

To give someone a weapon use

give_item(id,"weaponname")

To test if someone have this weapon use

ns_has_weapon(id,weapon)

Hive Trait Constants:
This mean which Hive have which chamber
To find it out

new ent = find_ent(-1,"team_hive")
ns_get_hive_trait(ent)

Structures and Impulse: how can i use the command client_build( index, structure, type, impulse ) how do i get structure types to put in the structure argument and what is impulse?

client_built ( index, structure, type, impulse )
index = id of player
If type is 1, it's a Marine structure. If type is 2, it's an Alien structure.
impulse = the impulse number,every building,command,.. have a number:

Alien resourcower = 90,
Alien Offenschamber = 91,
Alien Defenschember = 92,
Alien Sensorychamber= 93,
Alien movementchamber = 94,
Alien hive = 95,
...

this numbre can be found in ns_sdk,or here: http://www.nsmod.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=1751

thanks thats very usefull +karma
also i think u forgot the "structure" argument of the client_built function..
where do i get the names of the buildings?
when i write my own stuff there i get compile error:

Error: Function "client_built" is not implemented on line 67

[edit] hoo sorry, now i took another look of the function and saw that it only hook when a client builds a building... so how do i place a building with amxx? i mean i want to give a player some turrets so he can build by himself

[schnitzelmaker]

I think yes for structure

here how to use it(untested)

public client_built(id,structure,type,impulse){
    //here your code...
}

Amxx has no support for build a building.So it must create an ent.

public anyfunction(id)
{
...
make_building(id, "sensorychamber")
...
}

public make_building(id,name[]){
new team = pev(id, pev_team) //to give the building the same team as yours
new ent = create_entity(name)//buildingsnames:offenschamber,defensechamber,...
new Float:origin[3]
entity_get_vector(id, EV_VEC_origin,origin)
entity_set_origin(ent,origin)
DispatchSpawn(ent)
set_pev(ent,pev_fuser1,0)
set_pev(ent,pev_fuser2,500)
set_pev(ent,pev_team,team) // Use pev(id, pev_team) to get the team and not get_team(id) so MvM works.
ns_set_struct_owner(ent, id) //this make the id as owner of structur
}

Buildingnames list:defensechamber,movementchamber,sensorych amber,offensechamber,team_hive
team_command,team_armory,team_advarmory,team_ observatory,phasegate,team_turretfactory,team _advturretfactory,turret,siegeturret,team_pro tolab,team_armslab,team_infantryportal

It give some more names,to find out which name it has use:

new Classname[32]
entity_get_string(ent,EV_SZ_classname,Classname)
client_print(0,print_chat,"name:%s",Classname)
