Hey everyone,

I have two simple questions that I hope someone can help me with:

1. How can I get the value of a players' dvar, when I can't call the 'getDvar' function on the player? If I just use the 'getDvar' function, where does it get the value from?

2. Does the 'conditional ternary operator' work in this language? Example:

st1 ? st2 : st3

Thanks very much :)

1. You cannot.

Oops.

Yeh, I didn't think so, but I'm confused about promod. In promod, it can check your FPS and detect when it's greater than 250. Do you know how this works?

I have heard of a method that makes a player open a menu file, and does something with dvartest+shading to send information to the server.

But i think promod just uses punkbuster to kick players with a too high fps. Punkbuster has support for this.

1. No as described by an IW member in one of the scripts. It can only get serverside dvars. You can use variables to this sort of work.

2. No, sorry this does not work either, you will have to do it the old fashioned way:

// st0 = st1 ? st2 : st3;
if ( st1 )
	st0 = st2;
else
	st0 = st3;
