Hi im trying to make a fun mod for half life where you kill monsters and see who can kill the most for a set period of time.

There are three thing i need help with.First is how can i spawn the on specific points on the map and the second is how to see which player killed the monster and give him a frag and the third and final is how to monitor the monster count and if they are below a certain amount spawn some more.
Here is a script i have that has spawn,remove and other functions:

/***************************************************************************************************
                                AMX Monster
          
  Version: 0.3
  Author: KRoTaL (Translated from AMX to AMXX by ^Bend3R
   

    You have to install Monster Mod.



Commands:

  amx_monster <name, #userid, authid, @TERRORIST, @CT, * (all)> <monster> <number>

      monster: name of the monster you want to spawn (must be precached in the monster_precache.cfg file)
      number: number of monsters you want to spawn

  amx_findmonsters    -    displays in the console all the monsters which are on the map

  amx_removemonsters <monster> <number>

    name: name of the monster you want to remove (zombie, islave, agrunt...)
    number: number of monsters you want to remove (type 0 to remove all the monsters with this name)

  amx_monstermodel <model>

    Changes the models of all the monsters alive.
    model: path of the model without "models/" (droide.mdl, cow.mdl, ...)
    You have to precache the models in the plugin_precache function (at the bottom of this file).
    Use Half-Life models else monsters will be stuck in the ground.

 Examples:
  
  amx_monster joe snark 10
  amx_monster @CT zombie 3
  amx_removemonsters zombie 5
  amx_monstermodel droide.mdl        (droide.mdl is here: models/droide.mdl)


  You must have ADMIN_SLAY flag to use these commands.

i can also give you the source of the monster mod dll file.

[Arkshine]

for HL ? Don't use MonsterMod so, because you have the monster entities already integrated into the game.

[solano]

then what should i use create_entity ( "zombie" )
and what about creating them at certain locations and adding frags to the player who killed the monster

[Arkshine]

Yes, monster_* entity.

Since you are not willing to code yourself the plugin, you should post in the Request section, though it would be nice if a moderator can move this thread.

[solano]

no yoube got it wrong i am willing to code it myself its just i dont know the available functions.i went through some documentation but couldn't find the right functions and i dont know certain variables(spawn points, enteteis , hud messages,i hope you understand me)

EDIT:thanks for the entity guide it will be very helpfull
EDIT#2:

public plugin_init() 

   //Only called if killer is not worldspawn  
   register_event("DeathMsg", "hook_death", "a", "1>0") 
} 

public hook_death() 

   new Killer = read_data(1) 
   new Victim = read_data(2)
   new frags=get_user_frags(Killer)
     set_user_frags ( index, frags+1 )   
}

Will this work?

[Arkshine]

About creating at certain location, you would need to pre-create them. If you know CSDM Spawn Editor ; you would need something like that to save the origin/angles of the locations you want for one map. Then you could read one time this file for the current map, and spawing monsters at those locations. I suggest to see yourself the code to understand better. I'm lazy to show a full example when you have already some plugins which does such thing. :p

[solano]

Thank you arkshine youve been very helpfull ill try the things you suggesting in your last post and will tell you the results

[Arkshine]

About the frag, I'm not sure, but you can try this hook :

RegisterHam( Ham_Killed, "func_wall", "Monster_Killed", 1 );

public Monster_Killed ( const Monster, const Attacker )
{
     if ( is_user_alive( Attacker ) )
     {
           set_user_frags( Attacker, get_user_frags( Attacker ) + 1 );
     }
}

if you use the DeathMsg event :

register_event( "DeathMsg", "Monster_Killed", "a", "1>0" ) 

public Monster_Killed ()
{
     new Killer = read_data( 1 );
     new Victim = read_data( 2 );

     if ( is_user_alive( Killer ) && pev( Victim, pev_flags ) & FL_MONSTER ) )
     {
          set_user_frags( Attacker, get_user_frags( Attacker ) + 1 );
     }
}

[solano]

i get these errors wheni try to compile
Edit ok i got them down to 2 errors
Edit2: ok 1 error now
/home/groups/amxmodx/tmp3/phpX9j5iC.sma(73) : error 017: undefined symbol "set_user_frags"

1 Error.

[Arkshine]

set_user_frags() is a native from "fun" module. So you have to add : #include <fun> ;
for pev() , it's from fakemeta ; you have to add : #include <fakemeta>
