Re: [hlcoders] Source SDK Update Released
I hope they include official support for using more advanced stuff on server plugins. Like manipulating player health, position and so on.

Re: [hlcoders] Compiling on GCC4, threads.cpp with pthread implementation?
Source SDK requires gcc-3.4, so we should be safe with gcc-4.0. The main problem is that gcc-4.0 complais about a lot of stuff in the sdk that 3.4 does not :) I would really like to experiment recompiling my stuff with gcc 4.0 and see if the code it generates is faster.

Re: [hlcoders] Finding the entity based on the userid
You can code the loop so it looks up both pEntities on a single pass.
(You will be special casing this one to speed things up).
Copy and paste from my plugin:
---
for(i=1;i<=maxplayers && (!pVictim || !pAttacker;i++)) {
edict_t *pEntity = engine->PEntityOfEntIndex(i);
if(!pEntity || pEntity->IsFree()) {
continue;
}
int this_uid = engine->GetPlayerUserId(pEntity);
if(this_uid>=0) {
if(uid == this_uid) {
pVictim = pEntity;
}
if(attacker == this_uid) {
pAttacker = pEntity;
}
}
}
---
I am generating an attacked logline to be used on my tk prevention system :)
(It runs remotely, parsing log from multiple servers)

valve could create an easier way?

Meaning the player_hurt event is fired and I get a userid of 2. Will this
is different than the IndexOfEdict function in engine. How can I
determine

Re: [hlcoders] Using c_baseplayer in a server plugin
Possibly with generic methods so the interface does cover mod specific properties. Something in the lines of SetInt(char *propertieName, int value) and so on...

Re: [hlcoders] Using c_baseplayer in a server plugin
It will not work. You will get into a linker hell if you try. :( Skyler York wrote: Actually, this might be possible. The example plug-in simply doesn't get the interface you want by default. Take a look at eiface.h for IServerGameEnts. It contains an EdictToBaseEntity function you might be able to use. An additional call to interfaceFactory with that interface version could get you the interface you need to call that function. And then once you have a CBaseEntity, you can do what you please. However this goes back to the point made before where the implementation might change and you can't rely on it. However there is no useful interface equivalent for entities, so worse come to worst you simply rebuild the plug-in come an update to the base entity.
