HAC 2 Release

[Btcc22]

I'm still running into occasional exceptions.

It shouldn't be possible to crash the game with an Optic script but I'll give your script a smoke test to see if I can reproduce it. You should check to see if your game still crashes with one of the provided Optic packs.

I should note it seems to occur most with things like an SMG or something with a high ROF. I haven't hit it in, say, a sniper server

Thanks. That'd actually make sense if there's a bug in the event code used for the markers.

oh, also.. I have since changed the code in the download link tie the killmarker directly to the kill detect, rather than setting 'kills = 1' and running it from the hit detect if kills == 1.

I haven't tested it much since I updated it, couldn't tell you if it still exceptions. has it been working fine for you?

Oh also, side question: When multiple medals are called, is it possible to prevent the medal from sliding to the side?

Yes but I'll have to check the code to figure out how. I'll post again with the details after further testing of your script.

So I've narrowed down what was crashing, it was something on my end.

I was attempting to replace the hitmarker with a kill marker when a shot kills, which resulted in strange inconsistencies, as the hit/kill can come before and after one another.

This code was crasing:

 function hit_detect(event, killer, victim, player, timestamp)
     if(killer == player) then
            if (kill == 1) then
                display("Kill!", "killmarker_medal", "audio/hm_kill.mp3");
                kill = 0;
            else
        display("Hit!", "hitmarker_medal", "audio/hm_hit.mp3");
    end
 end
 
 function player_kills(event, killer, victim, player, timestamp)
    if(killer == player) then
        kill = 1;
    end
 end

This, more straight forward although a bit grosser causing two medals to call simultaneously, is not crashing.

 function hit_detect(event, killer, victim, player, timestamp)
     if(killer == player) then
            display("Hit!", "hitmarker_medal", "audio/hm_hit.mp3")
    end
 end
 
 function player_kills(event, killer, victim, player, timestamp)
    if(killer == player) then
        display("Kill!", "killmarker_medal", "audio/hm_kill.mp3")
    end
 end

That shouldn't cause a crash (not possible, in theory) and I wasn't able to reproduce it but I'll run a few tests with that snippet of code to be sure.

Not certain if this is anything you can fix on your end, but it appears as if running "multiplayer_hit_sound_volume 0" completely disables hit detection. Seems more like something built into the CE engine

HAC's hit event relies on Halo triggering its own hit sound event - it was the quickest way to hack it in for testing. I can fix it without too much of a problem.

cool bro cool~

any idea when this update is going to be pushed out to everyone?
