scroll of respawn gives mp_startmoney

algee2005 · Post by **algee2005** » Mon Jul 11, 2005 1:21 pm

yo, when people on our server use scroll of respawn, they always get 16000 $ (thats what our mp_startmoney is set to)

is there a way to let the players stick with the amount of money they got before respawning? its causing some trouble cuz some people abuse this and turn the server into some kind of deathmatch server

restricting shopmenu to buyzone and buytime wont help tho - we got 30 seconds buytime, and thats some serious long time when you think about it

you would have to change the code :/ There isn't an option about it

one question geesu where is it located is it in the .sma or in the .inc

Post by **Geesu** » Mon Jul 11, 2005 3:38 pm

search for mp_startmoney, I have no idea

I would guess in Skills or Ultimate.inl, but I could be wrong

just find the line that deals with mp_startmoney... there should be 2 lines, the 1st line contains it, and the next one is like set_user_money, just remove those lines.

sorted

for those that are interested:

its in the file other.inl, remove the lines 416-426, recompile the wc3 sma file, upload the wc3 amxx file and respawn will give you the money you got before furthermore.

why was this included at all?

on my server it doesnt do that

well, it did for us, and the code clearly tell that it works this way.
just look at other.inl, line 416 - its there...

Code: Select all

public func_spawn(parm[2]){
	#if ADVANCED_DEBUG
		writeDebugInfo("func_spawn",parm[0])
	#endif

	if (endround){
		set_user_money(parm[0],get_user_money(parm[0])+itemcost2[0],1)
		return PLUGIN_HANDLED
	}

	new id = parm[0]

	if(!p_data_b[id][PB_ISCONNECTED])
		return PLUGIN_CONTINUE

	if(get_user_team(id)==UNASSIGNED)
		return PLUGIN_CONTINUE

	p_data[id][P_ITEM]=0
	p_data[id][P_ITEM2]=0
	
	if (is_user_alive(id))
		return PLUGIN_CONTINUE

	new team[32]
	get_user_team(id,team,31)
	p_data_b[id][PB_PLAYERSPAWNED]=true
	Ultimate_Icon(id,ICON_SHOW)
	spawn(id)
	p_data_b[id][PB_SLOWED]=false
	p_data_b[id][PB_STUNNED]=false
	spawn(id)
	set_task(0.3,"spawn_player",TASK_SPAWNPLAYER+id,parm,2)
	set_task(0.5,"player_giveitems",TASK_GIVEITEMS+id,parm,2)

#if MOD == 0
	give_item(id, "weapon_knife")
#endif
[color=red]	
	new money = get_user_money(id)

	#if MOD == 0
		if (money < get_cvar_num("mp_startmoney"))
			set_user_money(id,get_cvar_num("mp_startmoney"),0)
	#endif
	#if MOD == 1
		if (money < iCvar[DOD_STARTMONEY])
			set_user_money(id,iCvar[DOD_STARTMONEY],0)

	#endif
[/color]
	return PLUGIN_CONTINUE
}

it checks the server settings what mp_startmoney is set to.
when you run mod dod, there is no such cvar so the plugin sets a "fake-startmoney", check your wc3FT.cfg.
then, when you respawn, and your current money is lower then mp_startmoney, it reassignes you the full mp_startmoney.

now i found out that removing this 10 lines obviously messed our whole server up, we get a whole bunch of errors that pop up all over the place so i highly recommend not to do this, check my other thread

FYI, there is no way removing those lines would cause any errors :/
