OnEntityDeath kill helicopter?

Has anyone been able to get Entity death to work when killing helicopter?

 

Code:

 void OnEntityDeath(BaseCombatEntity victim, HitInfo attacker)
{
      if (victim is BaseHelicopter )
     {
                //do something.... Code never gets here when i kill heli
     }
}

 

Maybe try "OnEntityKill":

Code:

void OnEntityKill(BaseNetworkable entity)
{
    if (entity != null && entity is BaseHelicopter)
        Puts(entity.ShortPrefabName);
}

 

That's what I'm using but it triggers when the heli despawns naturally as well - any way to accurately determine if a heli has been killed by a player or despawned naturally with either OnEntityKill or OnEntityDeath

Thanks.

 

With OnEntityDeath, you should be able to check if HitInfo.Initiator is a BasePlayer.

 

Oh - yeah, that sounds like it'll work

Thanks!

 

Hmm, I tried:

Code:

if (info.Initiator != null && info.Initiator is BasePlayer) {

And:

Code:

if (info.Initiator != null && info.Initiator.ToPlayer() != null) {

And neither triggered when a player shoots down the heli - all I see is the content of the catchall else which I was using when the heli despawns.

Any other thoughts? The full block is:

Code:

void OnEntityDeath(BaseCombatEntity entity, HitInfo info) {    if (entity != null && entity is BaseHelicopter) {        if (info.Initiator != null && info.Initiator.ToPlayer() != null) {            Puts("ToPLayer: The last heli was destroyed.");        } else if (info.Initiator != null && info.Initiator is BasePlayer) {            Puts("BasePlayer: The last heli was destroyed.");        } else if (info.Initiator == null) {            Puts("The heli despawned.");        }    }}
