[Request] SOLVED|death messages

[rotceh_dnih]

hey guy's

i would like to bring back death message's and this is how i'am doing it at the moment

Code:

onPlayerSpawned() { self endon("disconnect"); for(;;) { self waittill("spawned_player"); self thread setWeapons(); self waittill("death"); self iPrintlnBold("^1YOU DIED SILLY");

but i would like to do random message's at death
something like

Code:

self waittill("death"); self thread randomMessage();

Code:

randommessage () { switch(RandomInt(15)) { case 0: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 1: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 2: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 3: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 4: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 5: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 6: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 7: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 8: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 9: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; 10: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 11: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 12: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 13: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 14: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; } self thread maps\mp\gametypes\_hud_message::hintMessage(self.randommessage, self.randommessage ); }

so im haveing the same issue with the random killstreaks so fixing one should fix the other , please help find out why im getting a bad syntax when starting a private match
here's my screenshot of error attached
and my full _rank.gsc

[rotceh_dnih]

well they say you caint ask a stupid question but i'm feeling like abit of dick here spending over 3 hour's on something i dont understand , this is really starting to beat me

maybe instead of using cases, try else ifs

[rotceh_dnih]

thanks man so would i do that like this

Code:

randommessage () { switch(RandomInt(15)) { else if 0: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; else if 1: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; else if 2: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; else if 3: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; etc...

or do i have to re wright it ?

randommsg = RandomInt(15);

if (randommsg == 0) {
...
} else if (randommsg == 1) {
...
}

Or something like that. Never coded any mods mor Call of Duty games and for the Source Engine is pretty much like C++ (and really compiled, not parsed and not pseudo C++).

Code:

randomMessage() { self messageSelect(); self maps\mp\gametypes\_hud_message::hintMessage( self.randommessage ); } messageSelect() { switch(RandomInt(5)) { case 0: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 1: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 2: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 3: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; case 4: self.randommessage = "Death message here"; break; } }

try this?

Might be the double spaces between self.randommessage and =

Might be the double spaces between self.randommessage and =

Noticed that too, I dont know if the code I posted above is working took out the double spaces there also..
