I'm attempting to use the GetPlayerWeaponSlot function to get the index of a client's primary weapon, but it keeps passing back seemingly nonsensical values. Here's the block I'm using to test this:

public void TF2_OnConditionAdded(int client, TFCond addedCond) {
	int primaryIndex = GetPlayerWeaponSlot(client, TFWeaponSlot_Primary);
	char buffer[32];
	IntToString(revolverIndex, buffer, 32);
	PrintToServer(buffer);
}

So far, I've been handed 977 with the Diamondback and Ambassador, 975 with the stock revolver and the Cow Mangler, 975 (i think?) with the Machina, and 17 and 987 (either or) with the stock sniper rifle. I have no idea what these numbers mean or how I can make them consistent. I'm new to SP, and if anyone has some insight on how I'm misusing this function, please lend me a hand

You don't have "revolverIndex" declared in this code, I guess it's a misprint from some other part.

Use:

PHP Code:

PrintToServer("Weapon entity: %i", primaryIndex);

Here's what I would use to get a weapon index for a weapon in the Primary weapon slot...

PHP Code:

TF2_SwitchtoSlot(client, 0);    

int weapon = GetEntPropEnt(client, Prop_Send, "m_hActiveWeapon");
int weaponindex = GetEntProp(weapon, Prop_Send, "m_iItemDefinitionIndex");


stock void TF2_SwitchtoSlot(int client, int slot)
{
    if (slot >= 0 && slot <= 5 && IsClientInGame(client) && IsPlayerAlive(client))
    {
        char wepclassname[64];
        int wep = GetPlayerWeaponSlot(client, slot);
        if (wep > MaxClients && IsValidEdict(wep) && GetEdictClassname(wep, wepclassname, sizeof(wepclassname)))
        {
            FakeClientCommandEx(client, "use %s", wepclassname);
            SetEntPropEnt(client, Prop_Send, "m_hActiveWeapon", wep);
        }
    }
} 


This forces the client to switch to a particular weapon slot and then gets the weapon index from the active weapon.

That's what I get for trying to post at 3am, I guess

Also didn't realize that I'm getting back the entity index and not the weapon index, but that makes more sense

Implemented a version of this that caches the index on weapon equip. Thanks so much!
