Swapping between players Created 2 years ago2021-11-30 06:30:03 UTC by Petko

I need help with this, beacuse I havent been able to figure this out on my own.
This is for a mod im working on (A decay port to PC source code can be found here)
So the set up Ive got so far is this:
Each player when spawning gets assigned a custom m_decayIndex value (from 1 to 2, if its not decay its 0)
I need to figure out how to change both players positions, angles, health, weapons, ammo, etc, with eachother
I alredy have a command that changes the index, but I need it to change players completely.

Help would be appreciated.

I thought about how to do this a while ago but never looked into it, and I don't know what the Decay mod did but I imagine you could decompile their .dll and see.
I'd try just swapping the pev of the two players and see how that goes.

@tschumann
Swapping the "pev" of the 2 players doesnt work. The solution i used switched some things between players pev(s) (origin, angles, viewangles, etc), but not the entire thing. This solution has quite a few problems, the bot ignores triggers, floats in the air, and moves with a tram that it is not even standing on.
I think using SET_VIEW would be the best solution, but it doesnt work for some reason on players. (Makes the targeted players model invisible, but the players view is left unchanged)

Hm, is it possible to swap the edict_t* of the players?
