Cool thanks, btw hey dogmeat it's me DuckSauce but you may know already lol.
I haven't tested it out with multiple players, but here's the code I'm
using for the hitsounds in OnTakeDamage:
CRecipientFilter filter;
// needed to cast since GetAttacker returns the attacker as
CBaseEntity, recipient has to take CBasePlayer)
filter.AddRecipient( ( CBasePlayer* )inputInfo.GetAttacker() );
filter.MakeReliable();
// send the sound to attacker if the player taking damage is not the
attacker(so it doesn't play when someone
// hurts himself
if ( !inputInfo.GetAttacker() && inputInfo.GetDamage() > 0 )
{
//send announcement to play
UserMessageBegin( filter, "SendAudio" );
WRITE_STRING( "HitSound.Blip" );
MessageEnd();
}
Also now using it for my announcements like this in CHL2MPRules::Think(
void ):
float flStartSuddenDeathSound = 36.0;
if ( GetRoundRemainingTime() > flStartSuddenDeathSound )
{
bPreSuddenDeath = false;
}
else if ( GetRoundRemainingTime() <= flStartSuddenDeathSound &&
bAlreadyStarted1 != true )
{
bAlreadyStarted1 = true;
bPreSuddenDeath = true;
CBroadcastRecipientFilter filter;
// do I need to add all players in a broadcastrecipientfilter??
filter.AddAllPlayers();
filter.MakeReliable();
//send announcement to play
UserMessageBegin( filter, "SendAudio" );
WRITE_STRING( "MelonDeathMode.Activated" );
MessageEnd();
}
