so I am using this

public CBasePlayer_TakeDamage_Post(id, iInflictor, iAttacker, Float:flDamage, bitsDamageType){
	
	new weapon[40] 
	get_weaponname(get_user_weapon(iAttacker), weapon, sizeof(weapon) - 1)

	
	
	client_print(0, print_chat, "%s", weapon);
	
	
}

What i want to get is what weapon the player got hit by.. for example in TFC if you shoot a rocket.. switch to shotty, and the rocket hits after switching to shotty, it will register as the player getting hit by tf_weapon_supershotgun (the weapon the attacker is holding). I want it to register that they got hit by a rocket. Is there a way to do this? or another function that can accomplish all this?

Do you have the rocket plugin code?

Check if the inflictor is not a player then the damage is done by a third world object.

thank you for your reply! i do not have any type of plugin for rockets or any source code pertaining to rockets

i checked iInflictor and bitDamageType with %u and %d they return the same numbers for blast damage for rockets and grenades as well as pipebombs..

I tried using get_user_name for iInflictor just to see what it spits out.. gives me the hostname

Inflictor param is the entity which does the damage ( usually a weapon ) attacker and id are real player indexes. Param id is the victim's index.

cool that was my suspicion.. but idk how to get the weapon name


new weaponName[40]
get_weaponname(iInflictor, weaponName, sizeof(weaponName) -1)

and i get this error..

Check if the inflictor is actually a weapon. As I said "infilctor is usually a weapon"

PHP Code:

if(CSW_P228 <= inflictor <= CSW_P90)
{
    // execute
}

The inflictor is either a player index or an entity index but never csw id. If its an entity index not a player index, use pev_classname

Ok, you're right, just tested it.

In order to detect with which weapon got victim hit, get attacker's weapon ID and convert it to weapon's name:

PHP Code:

new szWeapon[32]
get_weaponname(get_user_weapon(iAttacker), szWeapon, charsmax(szWeapon))

This will work great with hitscan weapons, but not projectiles like a rocket or pipebomb in TFC.

I do really appreciate the responses guys

edit: returned 0

[Shadows Adi]

Does it returns any index at all?

get_user_weapon()
