Hello,

does someone know how I can force a specific client, to switch the weapon to another slot?

There is a GetPlayerWeaponSlot() function, that gives me the current slot, but how do I set it?

Any ideas?

You could try to use FakeClientCommand and "slot0", "slot1" etc.
or "invnext", "invprev".

Haven't tried that though, not sure if those commands are fakeable
or clientside only.

And if they exist in TF2 at all

slot0, slot1 etc are possible to change ...

but they open the weapon change menu only ... i have to set hud_fastswitch to 1 to get it work ... but hud_fastswitch is not fakeable serverside

other ideas ? ;D

Are you able to fake an equip command? Such as equip tf_weapon_rocketlauncher.

If not, take a look at bl4nk's code in this post: http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthr...837#post682837. Look at the OnPluginStart and the end of Command_GiveNamedItem for the WeaponEquip stuff.

you can use ClientCommand("slot#") to force a switch. I use this for a plugin I am developing. FakeClientCommand() reports an unknown command. Make sure you use a timer if setting player's weapons when they spawn, as they only are equipped with weapons 1 game frame after spawn. I use 0.1 second timer and it works most of the time. Randomly it does not work. Still trying to determine why.

ClientCommand(client, "slot3");

That would switch their slot to slot3.


The other way to do it is

new weapon = GetPlayerWeaponSlot(client, 2);
SetEntPropEnt(client, Prop_Send, "m_hActiveWeapon", weapon);

Use the second way that retsam mentioned. The first will have problems if a menu is active, or if they don't have quick switching enabled.
