Where the bullet collide

[vladdark]

It's possible in any way to know where (x,y) a bullet collide, even on the ground? I know how to do that if the bullet hit an enemy or a teammate with FriendlyFireOn with OnPlayerDamage and GetPlayerXY. But how about polygons?

For instance: Major shoot with a scripted Desert and, if the bullets don't touch any enemys, medikits will spawn (SpawnObject) on where the bullet hit on the ground. That's just an example, that's not exactly what I'm trying to do.

Maybe with AppOnIdle+GetPlayerStat+RayCast? But that doesn't work with slow bullets (e.g. M79, Law) cause the trajetory isn't a straight line, besides, it's strongly doubtful... Any ideas?

i think you can do that with a knife, look for the portal script

Thanks, man, I completely forgot about that mod, now I think I can do that. Thanks.

Edited:
Only to note, here the code I wrote to locate a knife shooted by anyone, maybe that can help somebody who want to do that and doesn't have any clue:

Code: [Select]

var
numberID: byte;

procedure AppOnIdle(Ticks: integer);
begin
for numberID:=1 to 32 do begin
if GetObjectStat(numberID,'Active') and GetObjectStat(numberID,'Style') = 25 then
// That WriteConsole is only to debug
WriteConsole(0,'X: '+GetObjectStat(numberID,'X')+' / Y: '+GetObjectStat(numberID,'Y'),$EE81FAA1);
end;
end;The code is really simple. =P

hmm... have you tried that with a lot of other objects on the map at the same time? Cause i think max ID is something like 100

Why did you make the NumberID variable global?

[ZomgProniss]

what is the point in having this?

[vladdark]

@chutem: 'Cause I was only testing that one script, so, global or not, doesn't made any difference to me on my test server... I posted it but it's not supposed to be used, it's only a example. =P

@ZomgProniss: I was trying to do a thing related to that... But, if you need a example... Well, did you ever saw a mine on another script? So, imagine that throwable; just for instance.

@danmer: You are right. But I really have no clue how to "clean" the script to track the right object and no one else...

If anyone know how to track the right knife (throwed by some player), or any other object who can be a bullet, even with a dozen of other knifes (or that other object) around, I will like a lot. lol

When the bullet is created, get the closest person maybe? Unless if there's a GetObjectStat thing to check..
