Detecting a Headshot

[Racer]

Im just wondering if there is a nice clean way to detect headshots from players or bots/zombies?

Code: [Select]

AddDamageType("HeadshotNormal",'<bitmap:add-ons/Weapon_Gun/CI_gun> %1','%2 <bitmap:add-ons/Weapon_Gun/CI_gun> %1',0.2,1);
AddDamageType("HeadshotSpecial",'headshotted %1','%2 headshotted %1',0.2,1);
datablock ProjectileData(headshotProjectile : gunProjectile)
{
directDamage = 30;
directDamageType = $DamageType::HeadshotNormal;
radiusDamageType = $DamageType::HeadshotNormal;
uiName = "Headshot Bullet";
};
function headshotProjectile::onCollision(%this,%obj,%col,%fade,%pos,%normal)
{
if(%col.getType() & $TypeMasks::PlayerObjectType && minigameCanDamage(%obj,%col) && isObject(%obj.client) && isObject(%col.client))
{
for(%i=0;%i<63;%i++)
{
%color = getColorIDTable(%i);
if(%color != %col.client.hatColor && %color != %col.client.headColor)
{
%oldcurrentcolor = %obj.client.currentColor;
%obj.client.currentColor = %i;
break;
}
}
%oldhatcolor = %col.client.hatColor;
%oldheadcolor = %col.client.hatColor;
bluePaintProjectile.onCollision(%this,%obj,%col,%fade,%pos,%normal);
        cancel(%col.tempColorSchedule);
if(%oldhatcolor != %col.client.hatColor || %oldheadcolor != %col.client.headColor)
{
%obj.client.currentColor = %oldcurrentcolor;
%col.setNodeColor("Head",%oldheadcolor);
%col.setNodeColor("Hat",%oldhatcolor);
%col.damage(%obj,%pos,%col.getDatablock().maxHealth,$DamageType::HeadshotSpecial);
}
else
{
%col.client.applyBodyColors();
%this.damage(%obj,%col,%fade,%pos,%normal);
}
}
}
I'm not positive if it'll work, give it a try.

Where is %col.tempColorSchedule defined?

Where is %col.tempColorSchedule defined?

When you're painted by someone, which is how this detects it.

I don't think being painted changes your head/hatColor, though. I saw a script somewhere that did this by detecting a setNodeColor change on the headSkin node when painted in a similar way.

Will this work with thrown weapons too?

[Space Guy]

Well, currently it won't work with anything but when it's fixed it'll work with any kind of weapon.

Try this script, it was made by Jookia.

Usage: getHitbox(%obj, %projectile, %pos)
Returns a list of nodes that would have been painted if the projectile was paint.
