OnEntityAttacked not giving me defender

Code:

object OnEntityAttacked(MonoBehaviour entity, HitInfo hitinfo)
{
     if (hitinfo == null)
     {
         Print("No hit info at all");
         return null;
     }
     if (hitinfo.Initiator == null)
     {
         Print("Attacker is null");
         return null;
     }
     if (hitinfo.HitEntity == null)
     {
         Print("Defender is null");
         return null;
     }
}

hitinfo.HitEntity seems to always be null whenever a BasePlayer gets attacked. I've tried with a stone hatchet, and a thompson

When a player gets hit, and starts bleeding, i get a buuuunch of calls on OnEntityAttacked, with the DEFENDER being null...


Am i doing somethiong wrong....
[DOUBLEPOST=1423527215][/DOUBLEPOST]Its very strange, that when a player is bleeding, cold, or going through radiation damage, HitEntity (the defender) is null.... So, what is being damaged.

 

oops sorry nm
[DOUBLEPOST=1423528309][/DOUBLEPOST]why do you use hintinfo.HitEntity ?
and not entity ?

 

"entity" isn't a property of the Assembly-CSharp/HitInfo class

 

MonoBehaviour entity

 

and how do i get the BasePlayer from that?

 

trying it just like that, dunno if it will work , but normally it will:

Code:

object OnEntityAttacked(MonoBehaviour entity, HitInfo hitinfo)
{
  var player = entity as BasePlayer;
  if(player == null)
  {
    return;
  }
  Puts(player.displayName);
}

 

Alrighty... wasnt sure if you could just cast it.

 

That did work Reneb. Thanks.

Cool. Thanks Wulf
