onPlayerKill is not working

[Mötley]

even tried the wiki version \/

Code Select Expand

function onPlayerKill( killer, player, reason, bodypart )
{
    Message( "** " + killer.Name + " killed " + player.Name + " (" + GetWeaponName( reason ) + ") (" + bodypart + ")" );   
}
any explanation to why or what could be interfering with this?

i even added print. Nothing

[aXXo]

I'm guessing that when you tested it, the killer and player were in the same team.
That would have resulted in calling onPlayerTeamKill and skipped onPlayerKill

[Mötley]

I did not think of this as i don't have teams, When I get off of work i will retest! problem more than likely solved! Thanks

This isn't LU! You can use only ClientMessage and ClientMessageToAll for send message on chat

Code Select Expand

function onPlayerKill( killer, player, reason, bodypart )
{
ClientMessageToAll( "** " + killer.Name + " killed " + player.Name + " (" + GetWeaponName( reason ) + ") (" + bodypart + ")",255,128,0,255);   
}

I had noticed this in the wiki. but MessagePlayer does exist and this Message is in the wiki. I will convert some time, Thanks for the tip!

[rww]

My mistake.. You can use MessagePlayer/Message on VC-MP, but i never use this functions, and I think that doesn't exist.

Message and other shits work well here.
Motley, try this:

Code Select Expand

function onPlayerTeamKill( k, p, r, b ) onPlayerKill( k, p, r, b );
function onPlayerKill( k, p, r, b ){
Message("Something happened");
}

Motley, try this:

Code Select Expand

function onPlayerTeamKill( k, p, r, b ) onPlayerKill( k, p, r, b );
function onPlayerKill( k, p, r, b ){
Message("Something happened");
}

LOL something happened !
I never thought of sharing functions together " You taught me something.

I would of done

Well, you could name these events anything you know,

Code Select Expand

function onPlayerKill( killer, player, reason, bodypart )
{
ClientMessageToAll("" + player + " Has been killed by " + killer + "",255,255,0);
}like

Code Select Expand

function onPlayerKill( THE_KILLER, VICTIM, OV_Reason, WHICH_PART_IT_SHOOT )
{
ClientMessageToAll("" + VICTIM + " Has been killed by " + THE_KILLER + "",255,255,0);
}
will work the same
AND

Code Select Expand

function onPlayerKill( killer, player, reason, bodypart )
{
 ClientMessageToAll( "** " + killer.Name + " killed " + player.Name + " (" + GetWeaponName( reason ) + ") (" + bodypart + ")"[code],255,128,0,255);   
}
change this line to

Code Select Expand

ClientMessageToAll( "** " + killer.Name + " killed " + player.Name + " (" + GetWeaponName( reason ) + ") (" + bodypart + ")",255,128,255); Since in RGB Colors, only three colors are used not FOUR! 255,128,0,255 @rwwpl wpl

*cough cough*
You're wrong Mr.@KAKAN , It's RGBA. You can provide 4 parameters.

Okay, never thougt of that.

So what do I need to do to have only One kill function? I want to have a Independent server. looks like its going to take a lot of stress testing on the kill system as Teams are set default unfortunately instead of adding scripted support for teams?

any suggestions would be helpful. ^^^^ everything in this post has helped me a lot!!! Thanks Everyone

@KAKAN THANKS FOR THE CODE! I modified it

"I just wish there was a distance function in the wiki so i can write longest headshots to stats!

Honestly! "I am too much of a noob to know how to script that "

somethings I just don't know and majority of the time when i see a code like distance I think "why didn't I think of that!

[KAKAN]

Well, what are you talking about? I don't need alpha in the WastedScreen function. So, why shall I use it? Don't worry, you won't be able to see the wasted screen since the fain and fadeout time is 0 ms

Well, you could name these events anything you know,

Sorry, was at phone at that time.

Reason, bodypart Well, you can see the onPlayerKill's params, it's exactly same as of onPlayerTeamKill.

"I just wish there was a distance function in the wiki so i can write longest headshots to stats!

there you go. ( donno who made it )

Code Select Expand

function Distance(x1, y1, x2, y2)
{
local dist = sqrt(((x2 - x1)*(x2 - x1)) + ((y2 - y1)*(y2 - y1)));
return dist;
}
just an example of using the function.

Code Select Expand

function onPlayerKill( killer, player, bodypart, reason )
{
PrivMessage( player, "killed by "+killer.Name+" Distance: "+Distance( killer.Pos.x, killer.Pos.y, player.Pos.x, player.Pos.y )+"." );
}

*again coughs*
DistanceFromPoint ( x1, y1, x2, y2 )
