okay, im just wondering, because your "answer" seems to be rephrasing my "question" or statements ive already made. im also using my own code to copy a usercmd. its all working. the only technical problem is, that it always has a delay of 1 tick ( time difference of prehook ). i ...

LOL idk what you are talking about there L'In20Cible .. im only trying to find a way to get an empty player-object. ( i could buy csgo accounts and use them on a VM, but this is a bad way - does this emphasize my point better? ) im trying to disable any unneded calculations that are done by the serv...

i want to copy a players UserCMD and use it on a bot.

thanks for the help so far. "pre_think" seems to be sthn like a "1tick-priorto-server-excecution", mb similar to "run_command" just here with access ONLY to the player object. (ofc i can deactivate everything here via the playerobj, but the calculations for AI are still...

yeah, do you know WHICH ONES? let me try to prepare some code: from entities.hooks import EntityPreHook @EntityPreHook(EntityCondition.is_bot_player, dummy_function) def dummy_function(args): ##handle args / return now i need to find the specific dummy functions and use the above cod...

one way, that comes to mind is using bot_zombie 1. but my fear is tha itll not boost performance, but instead only "block" the botcmd and botcontroller, after it was already heavily calculated by the server. so if anyone could give any insight on whether bot_zombie 1 will disable calculati...

Any chance i can unload the AI module from a bot object to avoid all its calculations? for performance boost.

using fakeclient stuff via bot_manager.create_bot is no option as that has trouble calculating gravity and animations on the client..(unless there is a way to fix that ofc)

thanks!

ayutos function is basically checking 180 degrees behind the player. if you additionally need to decrease the viewlimit to < 180 you want to add another viewangle check. if you want to simply see if you can view players you can raytrace them on the bones you want to check for..

how can you mix up those 2 different things? :D
i would raytrace the target players respective bones then

what exactly isnt working?

okay, makes more sense anyway, but is unfortunate for me :/ im wondering though how vgui hide gets called within the client. it must somehow have a function there that blocks the clients scoreboard call for x time/x press times. i might take a look at how that works, otherwise i guess i have to dism...

yes sorry, the code is ofc working, but my goal is to completly hide the scoreboard for clients , no blinking etc. edit: using the vgui hide in ontick wrapper almost never makes it pop, which makes it probable, that the server ALWAYS gives some sort of callback, so blocking all remote functions (may...

i havent tried any further code yet, but im sure ill find a way. BUT i need to know if the scoreboard ONLY gets called "from the server". if the client has its own "preopen" function ( first tick ), thered be no need of approaching this matter anyway for me.

thanks for sending code, but ive already tried blocking the command, but the scoreboard still pops up , thats why my question mainly regarded if the client has a separate launch or if its pure serverside

right now im trying to find a way to block the scoreboard from being viewed from players on a server( clicking tab ). my guess is, that it isnt possible at all, as the function might merely run on the client, yet considering that hud visibility can be effected via the playerobject. anybody knows spe...

Not the function (RemoveAmmo) is filled with NOP instructions, but all calls to RemoveAmmo. i dont see any contradiction to what i said, but thanks for clarification anyway ;) ( i only said that the performance boost depends on the function, that is getting noped. more complexity/ressources within ...

The difference between the hook and NOP method is that the NOP method will be faster, because it has to execute less instructions. But it's not worth the effort. yes, im still wondering, how much speed difference this would make in effect, but i guess that depends on the individual usage of the fun...

Which "add function" do you mean? Or do you want to overwrite all calls to RemoveAmmo() with NOP instructions? I guess I didn't really understand what you want to do. yes Nop was the correct word, sorry. i was wondering how sp code would handle such a process and now, after what you said,...

thanks for showing a possible implementation, Ayuto. Are you sure you mean register? i think so, my guess was to not hook into an existing engine function and replace the content with 0, but removing the entire function from the machine code on the server. ( = finding the register(?) and setting the...

if someone is handy enough with the memory module, maybe find the respective register in memory and block the "ammo-add" push that changes the clients hud value? ammo should be a networked property and route server -> client? i would like to see that approach, but its probably too hacky fo...
