Hook function for collisions between players and other players/bullets
JJ2+'s AngelScript API currently doesn't provide a straight-forward way to determine what to do when collision occurs between players and other players/bullets. The closest to this is onRoast which doesn't cover all cases.
Example of such a hook's function signature: Code:
void onCollide(jjPLAYER@ victim, jjPLAYER@ collider, COLLIDE::Collide collision, jjOBJ@ bullet) In fact, I already made a mutator (https://www.jazz2online.com/download...on-detector-v2) that attempts to do this because I'm working on a script that sometimes needs to decide what to do when specific collisions happen. Even then, my mutator isn't the most elegant solution, so I think this would be better as a native feature if that's feasible. |

This hook would be called near constantly I think. What's the use case here, what do you want to accomplish by having such a hook?

To clarify a bit on this, the script involves a player gambling to obtain an effect that's either a benefit or a drawback for them. Some effects will check if the player got hurt (or hurts another player) then based on that will decide to either modify either player's properties or do something else (e.g. spawning an object). This sounds like it could be just onHurt instead but I also want to affect non-enemy players sometimes so I also use onCollide for collisions that would've hurt. For bullet-based collisions sure I could just override a bullet's behavior but this script I mentioned is designed as carefully as possible to not conflict with custom weapons, so that's not an option for me. I realize this suggestion may be a rather niche use case though |
