hey guys
got it working
but not with ur method sparky (ill test ur version soon)
i forgot to put this in my script (otherwise vectorscale isnt working):

vectorScale (vec, scale)
{
	vec = (vec[0] * scale, vec[1] * scale, vec[2] * scale);
	return vec;

so my cod looks like that (i know its not the nicest, but im still beginner):

main()
{
thread players();
}

players()
{
	while(1)
	{
		players = getentarray("player","classname");
		for(i = 0; i < players.size; i++)
		{
			players[i] thread binoculars();
		}
		wait(1);
	}
}
vectorScale (vec, scale)
{
	vec = (vec[0] * scale, vec[1] * scale, vec[2] * scale);
	return vec;
}

binoculars()
{
	
	self endon( "disconnect" );

	if(isdefined(self.eyemarker))
	{
	self.eyemarker unlink();
	self.eyemarker delete();
	}
	self.eyemarker = spawn("script_origin",(0,0,0));
	self.eyemarker linkto (self, "tag_eye",(0,0,0),(0,0,0));

	if( isDefined( self.hud ) )
		self.hud Destroy();

	hud = newClientHudElem(self);
	hud.x = 300;
	hud.y = 400;
	hud.sort = 1;
	hud.fontScale = 2;
	hud.alpha = 1;



	while( 1 )
	{
	start = self.eyemarker.origin;
	angles = self getplayerangles();
	direction = anglesToForward(angles);
	direction = vectorScale(direction,100000);
	tracestart = start;
	traceend = start + direction;

	trace = bulletTrace(tracestart, traceend, false, undefined);

		if(!(trace["fraction"] == 1))
		{
		dist = distance(self.origin, trace["position"]);
		range = (int(dist)) * 0.025;
		hud setvalue(range);
		}

		wait ( 0.1 );
	}
}

okay, now i have to do that it only tells me the range when im looking at binocs
are/ is the binocular a weapon?
so i maybe i can do sth like this:

weapon = self getcurrentweapon();
if( isdefined(weapon) && weapon == "binoculars_mp")
{
self thread range();
}

mh i have to eat brb ^^

dunno how to call the binocs in the script :s

First of all, you don't have to define vectorScale function, because it already is! At the top of your *.gsc just place a following line:

#include maps\mp\_utility;

Then every 'vectorScale' WILL be defined. Don't forget to delete your version ( or rather a copy, whatever ) from your script. And binoculars? This is rather simple; when player grabs binoculars, he sends a notification which YOU need to catch:

player waittill("binocular_enter");

Get the player from the connecting block, i.e. in _callbacksetup.gsc ( I'd place a proper thread in CodeCallback_PlayerConnect() ). Call on him one thread and that's it You're done.

Nice. I didnt know about this binocular_enter thing.
Is there a notify binocular_exit/binocular_quit too?
again, very nice

"binocular_exit" notification is sent in this case. Just have tested it.

hihihii ^^
i know u guys do the best
but i dont know sth about on modding ._.
after my exams this month i will start mod
so i wanna say that this script is in my map.gsc
i know the binoc_enter / exit waittills, and i know that im noob
so it doesnt working for me, but ill keep trying this
i did this #include also, and it gaves me the error G_blur or sth like that
but
dont care
i will reach my goal and dont want to annoy you guys ^^
thanx for the waittill things, i did not know if it works on MP too, but u said yes and i trust u

a, btw is it much more complicatet to do this 'simple' script into a mod?
if yes i wont do it these days
thx u all
