Notes

• Comes with EventScripts 1.5, is a corelib command.
• The target user's armor value and damage type affect the real loss of health.
  • Damage type fall (32) ignores armor value and does precise damage to the players.
• Fires player_hurt event for each user damaged, event_var(weapon) will be "point_hurt".
  • Be aware to check for (event_var(weapon) != "point_hurt") if using this command inside player_hurt event!

Examples

// Causes 100 extra damage by any attack
// If the player health values are normal, this makes all weapons
// cause instant death on hit, the attacker is credited normally
event player_hurt
{
  if (event_var(weapon) != "point_hurt") do
  {
    es damage event_var(userid) 100 32 event_var(attacker)
  }
}

// GODJonez's console hax
es_xset gjuserid 0
es_getuserid gjuserid GODJonez
es damage !#all 200 32 server_var(gjuserid)
// !#all causes all users on server to be damaged except for server_var(gjuserid)
