Weapon kicker?!

[xDrul]

Hi,

I'm tryin' to script a 'weapon kicker', a script which allow me to kick players to another position by shooting him/her.. Great to get rid of dm'ers at roleplays / admin events etc etc . I've tied to script it several times but failed alot which codes should i use? onClientDamage/setElementPosition??

All help much 'preciated!

You could try:

onClientPlayerWeaponFire

with:

setElementVelocity or setElementPosition 

[WASSIm.]

onClientPlayerWeaponFire

and

triggerServerEvent 
kickPlayer

Yeah, i've tried that. It didnt work bcz i still don't know how to use that f8*]>|>|[cking code

[xDrul]

onClientPlayerWeaponFire

and

triggerServerEvent 
kickPlayer 

Doesnt kickPlayer kick the player out of the server? I actually ment the way to set their position to f.e. Las Vent. Cross. (so with setElementPosition(source, x, y, z, attacker) or idk

[WASSIm.]

you mean if admin shot to player will chane other position ?

Yeah, so i understand i should use getPlayerTeam & local team == ? And yep, so f.e. i shoot a bud with a M4 (or any other weapon(s), he will be 'kicked' warped to another position with setElementPosition)

change posX, posY, posZ to you'r Position you want

addEventHandler ( "onClientPlayerWeaponFire", getLocalPlayer(), 
    function (weapon, _, _, _, _, _, hitElement ) 
        if (getPlayerTeam ( localPlayer ) and getTeamName ( getPlayerTeam ( localPlayer ) ) == "Staff") then 
            if weapon == 31 and hitElement and getElementType(hitElement)=="player" then 
                 setElementPosition ( hitElement, posX, posY, posZ ) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
) 

[xDrul]

change posX, posY, posZ to you'r Position you want

addEventHandler ( "onClientPlayerWeaponFire", getLocalPlayer(), 
    function (weapon, _, _, _, _, _, hitElement ) 
        if (getPlayerTeam ( localPlayer ) and getTeamName ( getPlayerTeam ( localPlayer ) ) == "Staff") then 
            if weapon == 31 and hitElement and getElementType(hitElement)=="player" then 
                 setElementPosition ( hitElement, posX, posY, posZ ) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
) 

This one doesnt work o.0

Switch the getLocalPlayer in the event handler to "root".

[xDrul]

Neither

[myonlake]

Either you're not using the code client-side or you didn't use M4 when testing. I removed the weapon ID so you can shoot them with any weapon.

Client-side

local posX, posY, posZ = 0, 0, 3 
  
addEventHandler("onClientPlayerWeaponFire", root, 
    function(weapon, _, _, _, _, _, hitElement) 
        if (getPlayerTeam(localPlayer) and getTeamName(getPlayerTeam(localPlayer)) == "Staff") then 
            if (hitElement) and (getElementType(hitElement) == "player") then 
                setElementPosition(hitElement, posX, posY, posZ) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
)

@xDRul you must be in staff team first, myonlake code is working all what you have to do is changing the coordinates to the ones you want to you use.

Orly . I did, didn't work tho

[myonlake]

This actually makes no sense. It should work. I have debugged it as far as I can and setting team and fetching team works server-side, but doesn't work on client-side. I guess this is a bug then, I'll report to Mantis unless I can find the reason.

Also, I made the synchronization work, the hit element should be moved away properly for all players now (not sure if it was the issue before, but just to make sure.

Here's a small workaround.

Client-side

addEventHandler("onClientPlayerWeaponFire", root, 
    function(weapon, _, _, _, _, _, hitElement) 
        if (getElementData(localPlayer, "players.team")) and (getElementData(localPlayer, "players.team") == "Staff") then 
            if (hitElement) and (getElementType(hitElement) == "player") then 
                triggerServerEvent("sendPlayerAway", hitElement) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
) 

Server-side

addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot, 
    function() 
        for _,player in ipairs(getPlayersInTeam(getTeamFromName("Staff"))) do 
            setElementData(player, "players.team", "Staff", true) 
        end 
    end 
) 
  
local posX, posY, posZ = 0, 0, 3 
  
addEvent("sendPlayerAway", true) 
addEventHandler("sendPlayerAway", root, 
    function() 
        setElementPosition(source, posX, posY, posZ) 
    end 
)

Thanks alot! It worked! Just one small question left, can i also add smthg like outputChatBox('player who've been kicked' has been kicked by 'the attacker'") ?

[xDrul]

Tfoe, i've tested it out with some friends.. They're able to kick me too (not in the Staff team) anyway to fix that? Besides that it works!

[myonlake]

That shouldn't be even possible, because if they're not in the Staff team, they wouldn't have the element data neither.

Try it m8, i've copied & past exactly the same you posted

I was more referring to the fact that everybody on your server are set to the admin team for a reason or another.

[xDrul]

o.0 anyway to fix it ?
