Isn't prediction generally disabled in SP titles, though? I’m asking bercause
cl_predictionlist doesn’t show any predicted entities, neither when running my
own .dlls nor in HL2 and cl_predict is disabled, too.

because you're only locking on the server side if you're using that.
you need to predict it on the client, and make the client look at the point as
well.

First off, sorry for the late reply and the screwed up format, I didn’t get the
mail for some reason and had to copy it from the archive.
It doesn’t work at all then, the mouse does lock, but when I move away it is
not on target anymore. I’ve just tested it with a lag of 200 ms.

Looks like prediction issues - what the scan look like when you put on fake lag?

Ok, I’ve got the lock on mechanic to work so far; unfortunately, it feels a bit
jittery when e.g. going around a locked on prop, probably due to my usage of
CBasePlayer::SnapEyeAngles.
Is there a possibility to make it look a bit smoother? By the way, here’s a
video of how it looks now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iox4XPqpS4
The quality is terrible, but at fullscreen it should be visible what I meant.

*PlayerMove::SetupMove / *Prediction::SetupMove
ucmd->forwardmove *= 0;
ucmd->sidemove *= 0;
ucmd->upmove *= 0;
*Input::ApplyMouse to stop it from adding.

I’ve found a SnapEyeAngles method in CBasePlayer that I can call when I’ve got
a scanning target, so that’s one problem less. Now I only need to constrain
mouse movement somehow. I’ll take a look at the viewcontrol code, maybe I’ll
find something there.

The game_ui (or point_viewcontrol) code allows for disabling player input for
as long as it's active, I think this sounds mostly like what you'd want.
Maybe there's some hints from there how to disable only the mouse input, but I
can't think of any decent way except for GameMovement in general or the
GameRules right now.
Hope that helps a bit.

I have authored a new weapon that mimicks the “scan visor” mechanics from
Metroid Prime; however, I would like to be able to center the player’s view on
the entity that’s being scanned and disable mouse movement, so it stays
centered as long as the player is scanning. I have tried using
UTIL_PointAtEntity(pPlayer, pTarget) in my PrimaryAttack(), so that the player
angles are updated every frame if he’s scanning, but that doesn’t seem to work.
Any suggestions on this one? Your help is greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Krzysztof
