I figured out how to "log" kills with a custom weapon, but what I want to know now is how to "log" the damage done by the weapon...

well, I found some natives that sound like it might be what I need, but heck if I can find any documentation on it... n n/* Custom Weapon Support */n/* function will return index of new weapon */nnative custom_weapon_add( wpnname[], melee = 0, logname[]="" ); n/* Function will pass damage done by this custom weapon to stats module and other plugins */nnative custom_weapon_dmg( weapon, att, vic, damage, hitplace=0 ); n/* Function will pass info about custom weapon shot to stats module */nnative custom_weapon_shot( weapon, index ); // weapon id , player idn/* function will return 1 if true */nnative xmod_is_melee_wpn(wpnindex);n/* Returns weapon name. */nnative xmod_get_wpnname(wpnindex, name[], len);n/* Returns weapon logname. */nnative xmod_get_wpnlogname(wpnindex, name[], len);n/* Returns weapons array size */nnative xmod_get_maxweapons();n/* Returns stats array size ex. 8 in TS , 9 in DoD */nnative xmod_get_stats_size();n/* Returns 1 if true */nnative xmod_is_custom_wpn(wpnindex);n nnow mind you... everything I know about PAWN comes from reverse engineering everyone elses plugins, and the experience I have in other languages... and I am a "book" learned type of person, and the documentation on the AMXX stuff is not as good as I would like...n nso... does anyone know anything about these natives, OR know where to look for more "help" ... I have looked through the amxx forum, and have actually talked to a few coders, but none are experienced in DOD, so you guys are the "kings" in this category...

I have slowly been getting it... I am logging kills and certain damage now... BUT, what I need to do is stop the logging of the original weapon that has been replaced... I spent a good 2-3 hours skimming forums last night and did not find anything useful... what I did find is a bit disappointing... what I need to do is STOP a death before it happens... and then "kill" the player with code... but the more I read, the more people say its not possible to "stop" a death... or its not possible to reduce damage BEFORE its dealt to a player... and "adding health" to avoid a kill will not help those times that one hit kills...n nbtw, Diamond, I read a post of yours (amxmodx forums) about some rock throwing plugin you were try to make, which sounds like at one time you were trying to do the same thing as I am now.... how did that ever work out ??

Well you can block the death message, but i dont think there is anyway to block damage messages.

I think in this case its impossible =p

public client_PreThink(id) {n new clip, ammo, myWeapon = dod_get_user_weapon(id,clip,ammo)n if((myWeapon == DODW_SPADE&&g_status[id])){n  if(entity_get_int(id, EV_INT_button) & IN_ATTACK) {n   if(dod_is_deployed(id) == 0){n    client_print(id,print_chat,"Samurai - Katana") //testing textn    entity_set_int(id, EV_INT_button, entity_get_int(id, EV_INT_button) & ~IN_ATTACK)n    return PLUGIN_HANDLEDn   }n  }n }n return PLUGIN_HANDLEDn}

you could try like:n n

n    new ent,trashn    get_user_aiming(id,ent,trash)n    if(ent && pev_valid(ent) && ent>32)n        {n        new classname[32]n        pev(ent,pev_classname, classname, 31)n        if(equali(classname,"player"))n            {            n            new Float:origin1[3], Float:origin2[3]n            pev(id, pev_origin, origin1)n            pev(ent, pev_origin, origin2)n            new distance = floatround(get_distance_f(origin1, origin2))n n            if(distance <= 100)n                   .......................................n

nthat way they have to be aiming at the other player and within a certain distance.. which you'd have to play around with that number..n nbasically the way ive got my animals so they can be killed by knives/bayos

well isnt that stuff done thru stats_logging plugin?n nlike:n nisnt that logged for each weapon used on disconnect?n nuses like:n nso i dont know if theres anyway to write to that tho.. not even sure if that helps anynbut maybe you could just create a similar log message for your weapon when clients disconnect.. only think is you'd have to collect all the individual parts of the message
