Lua:player ondamage

This function is called whenever a player takes damage. The following variables are set in the global lua namespace before this function is called:

• info_damage: The amount of damage that the player will recieve.
• info_attacker: The player that fired the attack.
• info_classname: The classname of the weapon that hit the player. Note that this may be the classname of the projectile for projectile weapons, or the classname of the weapon for non-projectile weapons.

This function may modify the info_damage global variable in the global scope. If it does, the damage the player takes will be changed. This means that the script for a map can make players recieve more or less damage through scripting. Here is an example script that makes the player take no damage from the super shotgun.

function player_ondamage(player_id)
	ConsoleToAll(GetPlayerName(info_attacker).." shot "..GetPlayerName(player_id).." with a "..info_classname.." for "..info_damage.." damage")
	if info_classname == "ff_weapon_supershotgun" then
		ConsoleToAll("Take no damage from supershotty")
		info_damage = 0
	end
end

Here's another example in case you wanted to not take damage from your own rockets:

function player_ondamage( player_id )

	-- Don't take rocket damage from ourselves
	if ( player_id == info_attacker ) then
		if ( info_classname == "rocket" ) then
			info_damage = 0
		end
	end
end
