Script Core Suggestions

[croat1gamer]

Repeat is being done almost every tick untill Ammo gets higher than 0.
If there was a OnFire, now, 3 ppl firing 3 mp5 simultaneously would have the same offect, also being called evert 4th tick, and that 3 times.

Please remove the "(Script)" postfix in BanPlayerReason.... Who needs to know that he was banned by a script? It messes up the look of the reason.

Code: [Select]

function GetWaypointStat(ID: byte; stat: string): varient;

Stats:
active: boolean
x: singe
y: single
team: byte
style: byte (like 0=right 1=left 2=up 3=down 5=jet and such, its the combined result of all)
links: array of byte (all the other waypoints ID is linked to)



getplayerstat(ID,'curwaypoint'): byte;

This would be usefull for some zombie mods and exotic gamemodes.

OnPlayerSpeak like a function. Return true if you want disable the text typed.

[DorkeyDear]

Making OnPlayerSpeak not threaded.

[DorkeyDear]

SoldatIniFile: string; / GetSoldatIniFile(): string;
same w/
weapons mod file
maps list file
and anything else missed

its kind of a waste of time to figure out and parse the commands used, and set it that way

[DorkeyDear]

calling OnWeaponChange BEFORE the X and Y coordinates are changed to 0, 0 (or just don't change them, shouldn't be any harm) of the object (weapon) that was picked up. (It seems the X and Y coordinates are set to 0, 0, but Active is not yet set to false, which is odd; but whatever)

[DorkeyDear]

This is more of a server suggestion, but it relates to the scripting core.
When doing /recompile [scriptname], if the script or scripts do not compile, disabling them instead of closing the server. (Possibly optional, server.ini)

[Prodigyx]

Binary Read/Write file functions.

[DorkeyDear]

OnScriptCrash event, and ability to specify the a handler function in what script
server.ini
OnScriptCrash=Invoke:CrashHandler.OnScriptCrash (or just Infoke:CrashHandle, to remove the specification of what event to call)

function OnScriptCrash(Script: string): boolean; // returns whether or not to disable the script

This setup allows for only one handler method, and no return value collisions.

procedure DoHeal(ID: Byte; HealPoints: Integer)

Yes I know you can do negative damage with dodamage but I have one problem with it because it also 'heals' the bulletproof vest which makes the vest way to powerful when using a regeneration script.

an extra argument like armorpiercing : boolean on dodamage would be fine for me to

Seconded.

[Polifen]

Add parameter(s) to RayCast that will allow to specify for what kind of polys should it check : 0 - normal, 1 - only player collide, 2 - only bullet collide. I don't really know how to explain it better...

[Zabijaka]

Parameter Weapon:string in function OnPlayerDamage

[danmer]

Parameter Weapon:string in function OnPlayerDamage

at least bulletstyle, pretty pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease

[y0uRd34th]

Why bulletstyle? Hk, Minimi... have all plain bullet

[~Niko~]

Why bulletstyle? Hk, Minimi... have all plain bullet

M79 is likely not to...

[DorkeyDear]

procedure AppendFile(File, Content: string);
The same thing as WriteLnFile except it does not write a line, and only appends text to the end.

[Serial K!ller]

procedure OnWeaponChange(ID; PrimaryNum; SecondaryNum; By:??);

By says it's called by : Spawn, Forceweapon, weapon menu(choosing weapon after spawned), weapon switch, weapon pickup, ...

[Serial K!ller]

Procedure OpenWeaponsMenu(ID) opens the weapons menu for that player even when in the middle of a map.
Like that secret command that used to be in the older soldat versions.
