weapon_c4 at round start

katna · **Author**

i'm trying to save the c4 entity id in a global variable but when the round start, instead of getting one "weapon_c4", i got 2 entity of c4 bombs... my question is, why do i get 2 of them ( at any map ) and which one is the real one...

at round start event. the code is only for checking why do i get 2
gBomb is returning the first c4 id but why there are 2 weapon_c4

Code:

gBomb = engfunc(EngFunc_FindEntityByString, -1, "classname", "weapon_c4")
	if (!gBomb)	
		return

Code:

        new EntClass[32]
	new Entity
	new Float:fOrigin[3]
	pev(1, pev_origin, fOrigin)
	while((Entity = engfunc (EngFunc_FindEntityInSphere, Entity, fOrigin, -1)))
	{
		pev(Entity, pev_classname, EntClass, 31)
		ColorChat(0, "Entity id: %d, Entity class: %s", Entity, EntClass)
	}

Start to explain what you want to do exactly.

i just need the c4 entity id at every round start. but instead of getting one weapon_c4 entity as it should be ( i suppose ), i got 2 of them

He meant what you really want to do with that c4 entity, why do you need it ?

Because the c4 is tricky and you might go at this all wrong... for example, the placed c4 has "grenade" classname.

no, the c4 isn't going to be planted at all. i just need the c4 id because, of a few thing

- Glow c4 ( i know i don't need his specific id to glow it )
- Give a specifi player the c4 if it is dropped on the floor.

And i need the c4 id in a global var for later uses

yes, my problem is when i'm using this at round start event

Code:

new bomb = fm_find_ent_by_class(-1, "weapon_c4")

i get 2 weapon_c4 instead of one

Have you tried doing it at playerspawn??
and you can use

PHP Code:


			
#define fm_find_ent_by_class(%1,%2) engfunc( EngFunc_FindEntityByString, %1, "classname", %2 )

instead of the fakemeta_util i was told its very slow.

i think i got a solution but, can i use

Code:

fm_transfer_user_gun(0, id, CSW_C4)

to give the c4 to a player from the ground?

You can find who has the c4 using fm util and make the person switch and drop it.
