OnPlayerGiveDamage
Description
This callback is called when a player gives damage to another player.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| playerid | The ID of the player that gave damage. |
| damagedid | The ID of the player that received damage. |
| Float:amount | The amount of health/armour damagedid has lost (combined). |
| WEAPON:weaponid | The reason that caused the damage. |
| bodypart | The body part that was hit. |
Returns
1 - Callback will not be called in other filterscripts.
0 - Allows this callback to be called in other filterscripts.
It is always called first in filterscripts so returning 1 there blocks other filterscripts from processing it.
Examples
public OnPlayerGiveDamage(playerid, damagedid, Float:amount, WEAPON:weaponid, bodypart)
{
new string[128], victim[MAX_PLAYER_NAME], attacker[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
new weaponname[24];
GetPlayerName(playerid, attacker, sizeof (attacker));
GetPlayerName(damagedid, victim, sizeof (victim));
GetWeaponName(weaponid, weaponname, sizeof (weaponname));
format(string, sizeof(string), "%s has made %.0f damage to %s, weapon: %s, bodypart: %d", attacker, amount, victim, weaponname, bodypart);
SendClientMessageToAll(0xFFFFFFFF, string);
return 1;
}
Notes
tip
- Keep in mind this function can be inaccurate in some cases.
- If you want to prevent certain players from damaging eachother, use SetPlayerTeam.
- The weaponid will return 37 (flame thrower) from any fire sources (e.g. molotov, 18)
- The weaponid will return 51 from any weapon that creates an explosion (e.g. RPG, grenade)
- playerid is the only one who can call the callback.
- The amount is always the maximum damage the weaponid can do, even when the health left is less than that maximum damage. So when a player has 100.0 health and gets shot with a Desert Eagle which has a damage value of 46.2, it takes 3 shots to kill that player. All 3 shots will show an amount of 46.2, even though when the last shot hits, the player only has 7.6 health left.
