Trying to do stuff to otherplayers but I am having issues.

peep

Hey, I'm having a small issue. I am messing around with making some bot logic and for some reason it is applying to the localplayer too. Any help would be nice!

I am still learning the GSC syntax so please excuse bad code.

    for (;;)
    {
        for ( i=0; i < level.players.size; i++ )
        {
            player = level.players[i];
        
            if (player != self)
            {
                player setPlayerAngles(vectortoangles(self getTagOrigin("j_head") - player getEye()));
            }
         wait 0.1;
        }
        wait 0.1;
    }

peep try self.name instead of self and if it's still the same try player.name and self.name

peep

Resxt Already tried this and it's the same outcome

peep Show the rest of the code. Are you using GSC Studio? GSC Studio give syntax errors also on many cases where there no issue

peep

Sorex No. I am using VSCode. There are no code errors and that is my whole function. My issue is that it applies to me and the bots. I ONLY want it to apply to bots / other players.

Sorex

peep So your function don't have a name. Please show the full code of this aimbot

peep

Sorex It's not meant to be an aimbot.

It's setting the localplayers view angles and the bots view angles.

I only want to set the bots view angles.

botsmovement(player)
{
    self endon("disconnect");

    for (;;)
    {
        wait 0.05;
        for ( i=0; i < level.players.size; i++ )
        {
            player = level.players[i];
        
            if (player.name != self.name)
            {
                player setPlayerAngles(vectortoangles(self getTagOrigin("j_head") - player getEye()));
            }
        }
    }
}

Sorex

isBot( entity )
{
    return isDefined(entity.pers["isBot"]) && entity.pers["isBot"];
}

botsmovement()
{
    level endon("game_ended");

    for (;;)
    {
        wait 0.05;
        for ( i=0; i < level.players.size; i++ )
        {
            player = level.players[i];
        
            if (!isBot( player) && player.name != self.name)
            {
                player setPlayerAngles(vectortoangles(self getTagOrigin("j_head") - player getEye()));
            }
        }
    }
}

Call level thread botsmovement(); in your init and should work fine. There no syntax error here.

peep

Sorex Thank you for the response, This doesn't work.

I'm not sure if "isBot" works in MW3 but I could be wrong.

Sorex

peep my pad it work just with players change !isBot( player) with isBot( player). Remove the ! in front

peep

Sorex Still doesn't work my man

Is it possible for me to check if a string contains a certain word?

For example

if (player.name contains("bot"))
{
    //do stuff to bots here
}

is this possible in gsc?

Resxt

peep isBot does work if you're using Bot Warfare
Human players don't have isBot, it's undefined
Bots have it set to true. See my example here https://github.com/Resxt/Plutonium-IW5-Scripts/blob/main/actions_on_button_press/camera_switch_vote_on_button_press.gsc#L84

(In my case I check for human players only so I check for undefined and false so check for defined and true instead)

peep

Resxt Thanks for the reply but I got it working, I did this.

containsstring(thing, string)
{
    return isSubStr(thing, string);
}

botsmovement(player)
{
    self endon("disconnect");

    for (;;)
    {
        wait 0.05;
        for ( i=0; i < level.players.size; i++ )
        {
            player = level.players[i];
        
            if (containsstring(player.name, "bot"))
            {
                player setPlayerAngles(vectortoangles(self getTagOrigin("j_head") - player getEye()));
            }
        }
    }
}
