Hi!

I have a model on my map (COD2 MP).
Damage should be inflicted by weapons witch causes explositions, and splash damage such as granade, anti-tank weapons etc. on the model by the players.

I know settakedamage() and setcandamage() is not implemented in Cod2 Mp. So I tried to find other sollutions to detect the:
-amount of the inflected damage
-the inflector (who done the damage)
-and the weapon type (to trigger only for the explositoins...)

I have tried to implement this feature by a trigger_damage. It workes nicely but it respond for every type of damage, like pistol or rifle bullets etc.
(I have set the right flags for the trigger:
PISTOL_NO; RIFLE_NO; MELEE_NO - 35)
And it responds for all damage type.


After It I tried to handle the damage type by a script:

trig waittill("damage", dmg, who, dir, point, mod, inflictor);

-dmg: the amount of the inflicted damage
-who: the player who done the damage
These two variables works perfectly, but for the others are undefined.

So In Sum up:
-I wants detects specificed damage type with my trigger but the usuall ways... May be I 've done something wrong... but I can't find the sollution for this "bug"...



Thanks for your answers in advance!

ps.: Sorry for my English!

If I understand this correctly, you want to damage something only by explosives, no ?

If so, then do this:

trig waittill("damage", dmg, who, dir, point, mod, inflictor);
if (mod == "MOD_RIFLE_BULLET" || mod == "MOD_PISTOL_BULLET" || mod == "MOD_MELEE")
continue;
// rest of your code follows

The trigger will wait for damage and will run your code only if the damage isn't by bullets or melee.
_INSANE_ taught me this, so you should thank him :)

Yes that's it, but as I said the mod variable's value is undefined so I get some runtime errors (undefined cannot be casted to bool)...
(sorry I forgot it in the topic opening post!)

And there is the code witch handle the damages:

wait_base_dmg(bunker){
	level endon("intermission");
	level endon("round_end");
	//level waittill("round_start");	-nem kell itt lennie mert nezzuk ha nem megy a kor
	while(1){
		bunker.top waittill("damage", dmg, who, dir, point, mod, inflictor);	//nem ad az osszesnek erteket :S
		if(isValidBaseDmg(who, mod, bunker)){
			bunker.base.health-=dmg;
			
			if(bunker.base.model==level._models["bunker_full"] && bunker.base.health<=level.bunker_health/2){	//repedezett
				_set_mid_bunker(bunker);				
			}

			if(bunker.base.health<=0){	//breached
				level notify("announce", "breached", bunker.base.id, bunker.base.team);
				
				_set_breached_bunker(bunker);			//bazis lerombolasa
				player_add_score(who, level.bas_1_obj);	//pontok kiosztasa
				break;
			}
			
			level notify("announce", "under_attack", bunker.base.id, bunker.base.team);	//azert ide kerult hogy nem legyen under_attack+breached
		}
	}
}

and

isValidBaseDmg(who, mod, bunker){
/*
-ellenoriz tenyleg valos sebzes van-e a bazison,
ha igen 1 ha nem 0
*/
	if(isValidGamer(who)){	//tényleg játszik-e?
		if(who.pers["team"]!=bunker.base.team){	//masiknak a bazisa?
			if(game["num_rounds"]==0 && game["round_restartted"]==0){	//ha meg nem megy a jatek akkor irjunk neki
				if(who.wait_match==false){
					who iprintln(&"BAS_WAIT_TILL_MATCHSTART");
					who.wait_match=true;
				}
				else{
					return 0;
				}
			}
			else{
				if ((mod == "MOD_PROJECTILE") || (mod == "MOD_PROJECTILE_SPLASH")
					|| (mod == "MOD_GRENADE") || (mod == "MOD_GRENADE_SPLASH") 	
					|| (mod == "MOD_ARTILLERY") || (mod == "MOD_ARTILLERY_SPLASH") ){
						//iprintlnBold("Jo sebzes");
						return 1;							
				}
			}
			
		}
	}
	return 0;
}

I created some setcandamage() structure, mostly based on BraX his code.
If you want it, add me on xfire: Imbackagainiba

Thx man!
You've done it with bullettrace?

yeah pretty sure brax even posted about the setcandamage somewere in these forums if i remember correctly maybe you could do a search for it. i did something similar for my hide and seekv2 mod(hnsv2) i allowed players to be able to bash and tag models now instead of having to throw nades and yes bullet trace plays a big roll in this because you have to know what you are looking at.
