Hello everyone,

I would like to know if there is anyway to know when a Player dies? I'm currently working on a plugin with many, MANY timers that start whenever a player spawn and is supposed to destroy itself (so that it can get restarted later properly) whenever the player die.

I have tried to work with DeathMsg only to find out that it doesn't seem to work.

I have looked in the Forums, but did not find anything related to it. Is this a issue only for me, or?

Also, I'd like to know if the event "Damage" will apply BEFORE the damage get applied? (Like, for example, if I want to make a Player able to sometimes recover extra hp & armor from an attack, I just apply the HP and Armor before the player actually take damage. That way, it would save the Player's life if he is on low HP.)

Thanks for help.

What exactly did not work with DeathMsg?

Try something like this:

public plugin_init() {
    RegisterHam(Ham_Spawn, "player", "player_spawned", 1);
    register_event("DeathMsg", "death_event", "a");
}

public player_spawned(id) {
    set_task(1.0, "your_timer", id+100, _, _, "b");
}

public death_event() {
    new victim = read_data(2);
    if(task_exists(victim+100)) {
        remove_task(victim+100);
    }
}

You can use the hamsandwich module:

#include <amxmodx>
#include <hamsandwich>

public plugin_init()
{
    RegisterHam(Ham_Killed, "player", "fwd_Ham_Killed");
}

public fwd_Ham_Killed(id)
{
    // called whenever a player dies
}

What exactly? Well, it's pretty simple: no matter how I write it down, DeathMsg even NEVER EVER happen..

@X-olent: I'm gonna sound like a noob, but I couldn't find anything related to hamsandwich in the documention? Is there one? I have read many great good about it, but I can't really do anything with it I don't know how any of the functions. ^^;

Thanks for the fast answers, guys.
