Event Handlers and MP: Killshooter script

This works!

OK after lots of tweaking
in init field

this addEventHandler ["hit",{_this exec "teamwound.sqs"}]

in teamwound.sqs

killer = _this select 1
hurt = _this select 0

killera = driver killer

Publicvariable "killera"

? side killera != side hurt :goto "enemy"

? IsNull killer:goto "enemy"

killera setdammage 0.99; removeallweapons killera; Killera globalchat "I nearly killed a teammate!  I'm such an

idiot I should throw my weapon away!"


exit

#enemy
~5

exit

Works perfectly in msn editor.  I'm not sure if it will in MP, I'm going to test later.
If someone on your side shoots you, they get their weapon taked off them and their damage set to .99 (crawling)
It even works if they are inside a vehicle.

But now what I want is the action to drop weapons (introduced in resistance) so I can make the player drop his weapon, because it could be that they are the only LAW or AT soldier and the team needs it.  Anyone know what it is?  It's not in the unofficial command reference with the other actions, unless there has bee na new version out.








************EDIT
Actually there is a problem with the above script, if you are driving a car or vehicle, the weapon is removed from whooever you drive over and their damage is set to 9.9...... which is REALLY weird, although it could stop people getting killed by vehicles so much with some changes!  (because even though they are hurt with this, they don't die!)

punishing them with "disableuserinput" after respawning them would be a good twist

See this thread for all fo your "action" needs.

I have been thinking about this a bit and was wondering if the following was possible and if so how to do it


Objective
1)  To check if a player in his safezone had been killed by an enemy
2)  To check if player in safezone had killed an enemy player

My idea is to have 1 main trigger which encompasses the whole playing area
Which uses the addeventhandler "hit " or "killed"

and two smaller triggers which are the same size and in the same location as the east and west ("_x setdammage 1" forEach thislist; ) respawn protection triggers

These two smaller triggers would switch a variable "Insafezone" to true for any player that is within the triggers perimeter


Then the addeventhandler script exec by the init.sqs
that is continuously looping would check to see if

a) The "hit" target was ?(insafezone)
or
b) The shooter was ?(insafezone)

If either the shooter or target was ?(insafezone), then the shooter would be punished by being
{player setPos (getMarkerPos "respawn_east")} or if west the respawn_west
and then
player=shooter disableuserinput = true
~ punishment
player=shooter disableuserinput = false

I aint that familiar with eventhandlers, but i think i got a failry good understanding of them

However, what i do need to know, is how to make the smaller triggers switch "insafezone" to true for any player in its list


If i can get it working, i think it will be far more efficient that any of the Anti spawn shooting systems used so far


Any help will be appreciated Thx

Hi Dinger: How would I take one of these scripts you mentioned above and make it to ( say ) take points away from someone killing an unarmed enemy officer or soldier? As a rules of engagment script?

After 6 years I doubt you will get a response from Dinger, but you never know I suppose.
