you don't need to switch the library, but need a layer in between.

you can make something like:

• create 2 queues (requests and responses) with data and a chai callback

• create a worker thread that wakes up when requests not empty, process them and store the result in responses queue.

• create a hook at server frame, if responses not empty, call the chai callback with the response data.

and the chai functions ('http_get '...) just store the data and callback in requests queue.

The idea is cool, but you should make an asynchronous implementation.

You are blocking the entire game thread with the http calls. this way is not very usable. Its specified in the cpp-httplib README that is a blocking library.

using C++

// Teleport ChaiScript - xensik

def onPlayerConnected(args)
{
    var player = args[0];
    gsc.iprintln("hello");
    var saved = false;
    var saved_pos;
    var saved_ang;
    
    player.notifyOnPlayerCommand("save_pos", "+actionslot 3");
    player.notifyOnPlayerCommand("load_pos", "+actionslot 4");

    player.onNotify("save_pos", fun[player, saved, saved_pos, saved_ang]()
    {
        saved_pos = player.getOrigin();
        saved_ang = player.getPlayerAngles();
        saved = true;
        player.iprintlnbold("^3Position Saved!");
    });

    player.onNotify("load_pos", fun[player, saved, saved_pos, saved_ang]()
    {
        if(saved)
        {
            player.setOrigin(saved_pos);
            player.setPlayerAngles(saved_ang);
            player.iprintlnbold("^2Teleported!");
        }
    });
}

level.onNotify("connected", onPlayerConnected);

should work when notifies get fixed. wait for a update

gsc.iprintln("hello boyz");

yes, but using the field shouldnt crash

??????? im talking about calling entity fields in a short period of time. dont have nothing to be with use_hold or playerDamage, u can crash then in other many ways, this was just an example.

A comeback to Lua?

When you make calls to entity fields in a short period of time it crashes.

chai code to reproduce:
(go to Search & Destroy and spam the plant bomb button for example, the same happen onPlayerDamage that gets called a lot of times per second while shooting)

def onPlayerConnected(args)
{
    var player = args[0];
    player.onNotify("use_hold", fun[player](args)
    {
        player.iprintln("planting...");
        var origin = player.get("origin"); // make a field call and spam de F button
    });
}

level.onNotify("connected", onPlayerConnected);

if you can take a look at field implementation stability

I asume you already hook the game frame. If you can provide a new callback for plugins that gets trigger on every frame. So we dont have to install a hook for every plugin.

DLL_EXPORT void on_frame()
{

}

It will be handy to play with timers.
