unless i found the wrong one it not been answered, i don't want to use cftools i want to add it into the server files

unless you saw a better post please link it

So far, that specific code is being kept close to the chest of the creators. There are only a select handful of servers who have it, and I believe they are riding out the time a little bit before releasing, as it is a feature that helps drive users to their servers.

 

Your best bet, is to do what they did. Spend hours going through the files and figuring it out.

This works for me...

i'm in there already asking them how already, guess i have to wait a while

[ZombieCooKie 10]

Extract scipts.pbo and place the files in a directory named "scripts" in the server root.

Then follow the instruction from the tread i've quotet.
Playerbase.c is locatet in scripts\4_World\Entities\ManBase
Survivorbase is in scripts\4_World\Entities\ManBase\PlayerBase

Thats all

Nobody understands these funny instructions from zalexki.
Could not someone please post a manual, which one also understands.

[ZombieCooKie 10]

Just do what he say...

Insert this in SurvivorBase.c

private string PlayerIdentityName = "empty";

string GetPlayerIdentityName()
{
    return this.PlayerIdentityName;
}

void SetPlayerIdentityName(string name)
{
    this.PlayerIdentityName = name;
}

Insert this in PlayerBase.c (search forr eekilled for the right position)

SurvivorBase sbKilled = this;

if (killer.IsMan()) {
    Man manKiller = Man.Cast(killer);
    GetGame().ChatPlayer( 0, sbKilled.GetPlayerIdentityName() + " Killed By " + manKiller.GetIdentity().GetName());
} else {
    GetGame().ChatPlayer( 0, sbKilled.GetPlayerIdentityName() + " Killed by zombie/bleedout/fall?");
}

and this too (search for onconnect for right position)

SurvivorBase sb = this;
sb.SetPlayerIdentityName(this.GetIdentity().GetName());

That's it

Thank you, works great.
Is there a possibility to give the players their steam name or something similar?
If people do not give a name to the game in their startup option, call it Survivor or Survivor 1, and so on.

Thanks! How would you display just “playerName was killed”, as displayed in the original mod?

GetGame().ChatPlayer( 0, sbKilled.GetPlayerIdentityName() + " Killed By " + manKiller.GetIdentity().GetName());

GetGame().ChatPlayer( 0, sbKilled.GetPlayerIdentityName() + " was killed " );

Not tested!

I Guess you can try this...

SurvivorBase sbKilled = this;
 
if (killer.IsMan()) {
	Man manKiller = Man.Cast(killer);
	switch(killer.GetIdentity().GetPlainId()) {
		// Admin Sasaa
		case "76561198015080948":
			GetGame().ChatPlayer( 0, sbKilled.GetPlayerIdentityName() + " Killed By Admin SaSaa");
		break;
		
		// Normal players
		default:
			GetGame().ChatPlayer( 0, sbKilled.GetPlayerIdentityName() + " Killed By " + manKiller.GetIdentity().GetName());
		break;
	}
} else {
    GetGame().ChatPlayer( 0, sbKilled.GetPlayerIdentityName() + " Killed by zombie/bleedout/fall?");
}

Untested!!!

Found error in code

[kaspar rave 4]

I'm at work so it didn't test it yet but

this should give the distance to

if (killer.IsMan()) {
	Man manKiller = Man.Cast(killer);
	float distance = vector.Distance(manKiller.GetPosition(),sbKilled.GetPosition());
	switch(player.GetIdentity().GetPlainId()) {
		// Admin Sasaa
		case "76561198015080948": // steam64_id
			GetGame().ChatPlayer( 0, sbKilled.GetPlayerIdentityName() + " Killed By Admin SaSaa from " + distance );
		break;
		
		// Admin Mister X
		case "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx": // steam64_id
			GetGame().ChatPlayer( 0, sbKilled.GetPlayerIdentityName() + " Killed By player X from " + distance );
		break;
		
		// Normal players
		default:
			GetGame().ChatPlayer( 0, sbKilled.GetPlayerIdentityName() + " Killed By " + manKiller.GetIdentity().GetName() + " from " + distance );
		break;
	}
} else {
    GetGame().ChatPlayer( 0, sbKilled.GetPlayerIdentityName() + " Killed by zombie/bleedout/fall?");
}

As I stated before use this

if (killer.IsMan()) {
	Man manKiller = Man.Cast(killer);
	float distance = vector.Distance(manKiller.GetPosition(),sbKilled.GetPosition());
	switch(player.GetIdentity().GetPlainId()) {
		// just to make sure my name is correct and not surviver X
        // Admin sasaa
		case "76561198015080948": // steam64_id
			GetGame().ChatPlayer( 0, sbKilled.GetPlayerIdentityName() + " Killed By [Owner/Admin] SaSaa from " + distance + " meter");
		break;
		
		// Normal players
		default:
			GetGame().ChatPlayer( 0, sbKilled.GetPlayerIdentityName() + " Killed By " + manKiller.GetIdentity().GetName() + " from " + distance+" meter" );
		break;
	}
} else {
    GetGame().ChatPlayer( 0, sbKilled.GetPlayerIdentityName() + " Killed by zombie/bleedout/fall?");
}

works on my server.

It's all stated above in this post
I just edited the code to sort out all admin trough there steam id's.
I also changed onconnect and ondisconnect to display when a player joins/leaves

[Mostabdel 1]

[Mostabdel 1]
