add a way to determine if a client is 999, and if possible why he's 999 (loading, connecting, loosing packets, etc)<br>
 
--Gotenks
 
 
999 means: server has not been sent data from client for > 1000 ms. So there is no way to certainly tell why.
 
The timeoutflag is stored in the pmflags IIRC. Don't know if lua can read them right now. --[[User:Deus|Deus]] 23:12, 22 December 2005 (PST)<br>
 
Still would like access to the ping, or a dummy variable if they are 999, but also the ammount of time they are inactive.<br>

Is it possible to get a player's live angles? Fieldname "s.angles" only gives the spawn angles. Tried "rotate", "s.angles2", "TargetAngles", "r.currentAngles" as well but they just give 0.000000 for each element. thanks for any help --[[User:Hadr0|Hadr0]] 01:35, 25 January 2006 (PST)

Revision as of 04:10, 6 February 2007

some of this can be done via function et_Print(text).. but this would greatly simplify life,
my wish list for christmas:
- getUserEguid(cno) - get a client's etpro guid?
- repair gentity_set for vec3 - scotty fix the transporter please

fixed.--Bani 17:56, 22 December 2005 (PST)

please call et_Obituary() and et_Print() at the end of the engine function because we can do better output then. example: the engine output (ETPlayer killed himself.) is after the lua output (Hahaha! ETPlayer seems to be a selfkill noob!). thx!! --pdi 09:13, 26 December 2006 (PST)

It is called at the beginning of the function so lua mods can override obituary and print entirely if they want. I can make a separate lua hook which is called at the end of the function, eg et_ObituaryPost and et_PrintPost. Bani 11:52, 3 January 2007 (PST)
Ok, this sounds good to me! Big THX!! :) Please have also a look at field section of this page! ;) --pdi 05:41, 4 January 2007 (PST)

IPC stuff


i would like a et_IPCReceive whit an return value so u can send info back on a request

i would like a et_IPCSend that can send to all lua mods then them mods can decide if the wana use that message or not =FF=Im2good4u 12:35, 8 January 2006 (PST)


 et_IPCReceive wouldn't send it to the other mod... afaik... so just use another send
 just et_IPCSend to all modules (afaik, you can even send to ones not there), simple loop function

gotenks 20:04, 8 January 2006 (CST)

yeh probely but its not verry handy its better to get the good vmnumber or to e able to send on mod filenames

apart from that returning a value will be more handy since tnhe u cna contine in 1 funtion else u got to reacise it in the recieve funtion =FF=Im2good4u 10:45, 9 January 2006 (PST)

Fields for the next release

I think Kotoko wants the ps.velocity field here. It would be a good idea, I think. --FARMICEUDICAL 20:23, 5 December 2006 (PST)

bani: RW access to all "sess.*" fields (sess.skillpoints, sess.startskillpoints, sess.startxptotal, ...) would be great. thanx! --pdi 05:55, 2 August 2006 (PDT)

bani: please make all "pers.*" fields (pers.clientTimeNudge, pers.clientMaxPackets, ...) available. thanx! --pdi 01:04, 17 August 2006 (PDT)

you can get timenudge and maxpackets from the userinfo --ReyalP 20:19, 18 August 2006 (PDT)
i know, but i ask for all pers.* fields. pers.clientTimeNudge and pers.clientMaxPackets are only examples. :) --pdi 01:56, 21 August 2006 (PDT)

bani: will we have rw access to those fields (all sess.* and all pers.*) with next update? please!! --pdi 07:02, 19 October 2006 (PDT)

ps.weapon, so arbitrary weapons can be added to or removed from arbitrary classes. For example, trickjump servers don't like Field Ops spamming airstrikes or artillery, but they do appreciate the ammo they give out. --FARMICEUDICAL 21:09, 5 December 2006 (PST)

ps.weapon won't do that for you. ps.weapons might :) --ReyalP 17:14, 6 December 2006 (PST)

Okay then, ps.weapon so that medics can be set to spawn with the adrenaline needle out instead of the smg. --FARMICEUDICAL 03:23, 11 December 2006 (PST)

Please give read access to g_campaignInfo_t in a field like campaignInfo. Thx!! --pdi 08:57, 7 January 2007 (PST)
