Hey. I would like to know that how can we hook the event in which an entity touches the ground.
I know that it can be done by using

register_touch(...)

.
But what is the entity-name of the ground, i don't know that. So please help.

I think you can do

PHP Code:

register_touch("your_entity", "*", "your_touch_func"); 


to register touch between your and any other entity.

What about FL_ONGROUND?

I know how to register the touches of an entity, I was asking how can I hook its touch with ground.
And about

//FL_ONGROUND
if (pev(id, pev_flags) & FL_ONGROUND) {...}

I know this method. But this is meant for the players only. Does it have anything to do with entities?

Instead of asking, why don't you test it yourself?

I am away right now. Testing would be possible only after a few days.

PHP Code:

public pfn_touch(entity, id)
{
    if(pev_valid(entity)
    && !task_exists(entity+16541))
    {
        if(pev(entity, pev_classname) == g_eClassnameid)
        {
            static intOwner
            intOwner = pev(entity, pev(entity, pev_euser2) ? pev_euser1 : pev_owner)
            
            client_print(0, print_chat, "Owner %i: id: %i", intOwner, id)
            
            if(!pev_valid(id))
            {
                // Entity System
                static Float:vecOrigin[3], Float:vecOutput[3]
                pev(entity, pev_origin, vecOrigin)
                xs_vec_copy(vecOrigin, vecOutput)
                vecOutput[2] -= 30.0
                
                new iTraceHandle = create_tr2()
                engfunc(EngFunc_TraceLine, vecOrigin, vecOutput, IGNORE_MONSTERS, id, iTraceHandle)
                get_tr2(iTraceHandle, TR_vecEndPos, vecOutput)
                free_tr2(iTraceHandle)
                
                new intDiff = (floatround(vecOrigin[2]) - floatround(vecOutput[2]))
                
                
            }
        }
    }
    return PLUGIN_CONTINUE
} 


Play with this, it checks walls & ground, so check height or something, to find out

@Xalus, you don't get what he is asking. If this is what I think, it's for his last plugin, when he force a drop on the weapon and he needs to remove the dropped weapon ent. Also, he is asking how to hook touch for an entity with unknow classname, which is impossible. So, instead of asking this question, explain what's your real problem so we can give you the best way.

Actually not, your question doesn't make sense. You want to hook touch for an entity that you don't know ? How you can't know it's classname ? This seems very strange to me, so you should say what are you really trying to do so we can help you. If it's a default map entity you can find it's classname by searching, if it's an ent that you are creating, then you can set it's classname when you create it, so you will know. If this are not the cases, you need to provide more info.
