This tutorial assumes you already know the basics of coding, or at least know what it is, and that you have a copy of the original Blockmaker.
Blockmaker v4.01

I suggest using Notepad++ because of the user friendly basic look it has, but you can (obviously) use your favorite coding program.

Step 1

The first step is creating a data holder for the deagle, as shown below.

Code: Select all

#include <amxmodx>
#include <amxmisc>
#include <engine>
#include <fun>
#include <cstrike>
#include <fakemeta>
 
#pragma semicolon 1;
 
#define PLUGIN "blockmaker"
#define VERSION "4.01"
#define AUTHOR "Necro"
#define BM_ADMIN_LEVEL ADMIN_MENU    //admin access level to use this plugin. ADMIN_MENU = flag 'u'
 
new DeagleUsed[33];

new DeagleUsed[33]; is the data holder. Typically for player data, there are 33 cells, 32 for the maximum number of players in a server and an extra cell for the data itself.

Step 2

Code: Select all

new const gszBlockModelDefault[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_default.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelPlatform[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_platform.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelBhop[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_bhop.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelDamage[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_damage.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelHealer[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_healer.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelInvincibility[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_invincibility.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelStealth[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_stealth.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelSpeedBoost[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_speedboost.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelNoFallDamage[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_nofalldamage.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelIce[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_ice.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelDeath[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_death.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelNuke[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_nuke.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelCamouflage[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_camouflage.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelLowGravity[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_lowgravity.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelFire[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_fire.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelRandom[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_random.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelSlap[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_slap.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelHoney[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_honey.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelBarrierCT[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_barrier_ct.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelBarrierT[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_barrier_t.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelBootsOfSpeed[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_bootsofspeed.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelGlass[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_glass.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelBhopNoSlow[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_bhop_noslow.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelAutoBhop[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_autobhop.mdl";
new const gszBlockModelDeagle[] = "models/blockmaker/bm_block_default.mdl";

These allocate each constant a model path, that way, if in any further code, we need to define a blocks model path, we remove the need to rinse and repeat.

Step 3

Code: Select all

// block & teleport types
const gBlockMax = 25;
new gSelectedBlockType[gBlockMax];
new gRender[gBlockMax];
new gRed[gBlockMax];
new gGreen[gBlockMax];
new gBlue[gBlockMax];
new gAlpha[gBlockMax];

What you really want to pay attention to here is "const gBlockMax = 25;." This describes the maximum number of blocks allowed. If you don't change this every time you add a new block, you might get a few errors. Unfortunately, many of those being none that I will help you with because you chose to be oblivious. I suggest you check this integer every time you get an error that you don't understand.

Step 4

(Note that all of the letters you see in this code will differ from yours; I've organized mine and altered the original code, you may do so as well if you'd like.)

Code: Select all

    BM_PLATFORM,        //A
    BM_BHOP,        //B
    BM_DAMAGE,        //C
    BM_HEALER,        //D
    BM_NOFALLDAMAGE,    //E
    BM_ICE,            //F
    BM_TRAMPOLINE,        //G
    BM_SPEEDBOOST,        //H
    BM_INVINCIBILITY,    //I
    BM_STEALTH,        //J
    BM_DEATH,        //K
    BM_NUKE,        //L
    BM_CAMOUFLAGE,        //M
    BM_LOWGRAVITY,        //N
    BM_FIRE,        //O
    BM_SLAP,        //P
    BM_RANDOM,        //Q
    BM_HONEY,        //R
    BM_BARRIER_CT,        //S
    BM_BARRIER_T,        //T
    BM_BOOTSOFSPEED,    //U
    BM_GLASS,        //V
    BM_BHOP_NOSLOW,        //W
    BM_AUTO_BHOP,        //X
    BM_DEAGLE, //Y

The two forward slashes that follow all of these block definitions are comments and render anything after it useless to the server, these are notes for personal use and future reference.

Step 5

(Note again that this has been re-organized by me.)

Code: Select all

    "Platform",
    "Bunnyhop",
    "Damage",
    "Healer",
    "No Fall Damage",
    "Ice",
    "Trampoline",
    "Speed Boost",
    "Invincibility",
    "Stealth",
    "Death",
    "Nuke",
    "Camouflage",
    "Low Gravity",
    "Fire",
    "Slap",
    "Random",
    "Honey",
    "CT Barrier",
    "T Barrier",
    "Boots Of Speed",
    "Glass",
    "Bunnyhop (No slow down)",
    "Auto Bunnyhop",
    "Deagle"

This is what shows up in the menu, so here we're just adding "Deagle" to the menu.
Note: When editing this, do not forgot to place a comma after the last item in the list to let the plugin know that there is more to the menu. For example, incorrect use:

Code: Select all

"Auto Bunnyhop"
"Deagle"

correct use:

Code: Select all

"Auto Bunnyhop",
"Deagle"

Failing to do so will give you a compiling error.

Step 6

Code: Select all

new const gBlockSaveIds[gBlockMax] =
{
    'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'F', 'G', 'H', 'I', 'J', 'K', 'L', 'M', 'N', 'O', 'P', 'Q', 'R', 'S', 'T', 'U', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y'

This should be in order of Step 4, remember how we made a comment after the Deagle, and we used //Y?
This is in order, look up and down the list we used for the menu (the code before this). A = Platform, B = Bunnyhop, so on so forth. Again, your code will differ from mine, and again, you may organize it. If you've already begun organizing, I suggest you continue to do so.

Note: These ARE case sensitive, so when you're done with capital letters, you can move onto lower case, and then numbers or characters such as !@#$% etc.

Step 7

Code: Select all

    //set block models to defaults
    gszBlockModels[BM_PLATFORM] = gszBlockModelPlatform;
    gszBlockModels[BM_BHOP] = gszBlockModelBhop;
    gszBlockModels[BM_DAMAGE] = gszBlockModelDamage;
    gszBlockModels[BM_HEALER] = gszBlockModelHealer;
    gszBlockModels[BM_NOFALLDAMAGE] = gszBlockModelNoFallDamage;
    gszBlockModels[BM_ICE] = gszBlockModelIce;
    gszBlockModels[BM_TRAMPOLINE] = gszBlockModelDefault;
    gszBlockModels[BM_SPEEDBOOST] = gszBlockModelSpeedBoost;
    gszBlockModels[BM_INVINCIBILITY] = gszBlockModelInvincibility;
    gszBlockModels[BM_STEALTH] = gszBlockModelStealth;
    gszBlockModels[BM_DEATH] = gszBlockModelDeath;
    gszBlockModels[BM_NUKE] = gszBlockModelNuke;
    gszBlockModels[BM_CAMOUFLAGE] = gszBlockModelCamouflage;
    gszBlockModels[BM_LOWGRAVITY] = gszBlockModelLowGravity;
    gszBlockModels[BM_FIRE] = gszBlockModelFire;
    gszBlockModels[BM_SLAP] = gszBlockModelSlap;
    gszBlockModels[BM_RANDOM] = gszBlockModelRandom;
    gszBlockModels[BM_HONEY] = gszBlockModelHoney;
    gszBlockModels[BM_BARRIER_CT] = gszBlockModelBarrierCT;
    gszBlockModels[BM_BARRIER_T] = gszBlockModelBarrierT;
    gszBlockModels[BM_BOOTSOFSPEED] = gszBlockModelBootsOfSpeed;
    gszBlockModels[BM_GLASS] = gszBlockModelGlass;
    gszBlockModels[BM_BHOP_NOSLOW] = gszBlockModelBhopNoSlow;
    gszBlockModels[BM_AUTO_BHOP] = gszBlockModelAutoBhop;
    gszBlockModels[BM_DEAGLE] = gszBlockModelDeagle;

Remember how we defined gszBlockModelDeagle to the model path? This coordinates all of the blocks within Steps 2 and 4, adjust your code to this snippet.

Step 8

Code: Select all

        if (equal(szType, "PLATFORM")) blockType = BM_PLATFORM;
        else if (equal(szType, "BHOP")) blockType = BM_BHOP;
        else if (equal(szType, "DAMAGE")) blockType = BM_DAMAGE;
        else if (equal(szType, "HEALER")) blockType = BM_HEALER;
        else if (equal(szType, "NOFALLDAMAGE")) blockType = BM_NOFALLDAMAGE;
        else if (equal(szType, "ICE")) blockType = BM_ICE;
        else if (equal(szType, "TRAMPOLINE")) blockType = BM_TRAMPOLINE;
        else if (equal(szType, "SPEEDBOOST")) blockType = BM_SPEEDBOOST;
        else if (equal(szType, "INVINCIBILITY")) blockType = BM_INVINCIBILITY;
        else if (equal(szType, "STEALTH")) blockType = BM_STEALTH;
        else if (equal(szType, "DEATH")) blockType = BM_DEATH;
        else if (equal(szType, "NUKE")) blockType = BM_NUKE;
        else if (equal(szType, "CAMOUFLAGE")) blockType = BM_CAMOUFLAGE;
        else if (equal(szType, "LOWGRAVITY")) blockType = BM_LOWGRAVITY;
        else if (equal(szType, "FIRE")) blockType = BM_FIRE;
        else if (equal(szType, "SLAP")) blockType = BM_SLAP;
        else if (equal(szType, "RANDOM")) blockType = BM_RANDOM;
        else if (equal(szType, "HONEY")) blockType = BM_HONEY;
        else if (equal(szType, "BARRIER_CT")) blockType = BM_BARRIER_CT;
        else if (equal(szType, "BARRIER_T")) blockType = BM_BARRIER_T;
        else if (equal(szType, "BOOTSOFSPEED")) blockType = BM_BOOTSOFSPEED;
        else if (equal(szType, "GLASS")) blockType = BM_GLASS;
        else if (equal(szType, "BHOP_NOSLOW")) blockType = BM_BHOP_NOSLOW;
        else if (equal(szType, "AUTO_BHOP")) blockType = BM_AUTO_BHOP;
        else if (equal(szType, "DEAGLE")) blockType = BM_DEAGLE;

All this is saying, is that if the block created is a DEAGLE, give it the properties of BM_DEAGLE.

Step 9

Code: Select all

                        case BM_HEALER: actionHeal(id);
                        case BM_DAMAGE: actionDamage(id);
                        case BM_INVINCIBILITY: actionInvincible(id, false);
                        case BM_STEALTH: actionStealth(id, false);
                        case BM_TRAMPOLINE: actionTrampoline(id);
                        case BM_SPEEDBOOST: actionSpeedBoost(id);
                        case BM_DEATH: actionDeath(id);
                        case BM_NUKE: actionNuke(id, false);
                        case BM_LOWGRAVITY: actionLowGravity(id);
                        case BM_CAMOUFLAGE: actionCamouflage(id, false);
                        case BM_FIRE: actionFire(id, ent);
                        case BM_SLAP: actionSlap(id);
                        case BM_RANDOM: actionRandom(id, ent);
                        case BM_HONEY: actionHoney(id);
                        case BM_BOOTSOFSPEED: actionBootsOfSpeed(id, false);
                        case BM_AUTO_BHOP: actionAutoBhop(id, false);
                        case BM_DEAGLE: actionDeagle(id);

Now we're coordinating BM_DEAGLE (which we coordinated with the block model path for the deagle block), to an action that will activate once you step on the block.

Step 10

Code: Select all

public eventRoundRestart()
{
    //iterate through all players
    for (new id = 1; id <= 32; ++id)
    {
        //reset all players timers
        resetTimers(id);
 
        DeagleUsed[id] = false;
    }
}

public eventRoundRestart is just a list of what resets when the round restarts, in the action "actionDeagle(id);", it is set to make "DeagleUsed[id] = true;" which means that you have used a deagle block and you cant use it again, but, since I placed "DeagleUsed[id] = false;" under public eventRoundRestart, it lets the server know at the beginning of each round that I can use the deagle block again.

Step 11

Code: Select all

/***** BLOCK ACTIONS *****/
actionDeagle(id)
{
    if (is_user_alive(id) && !DeagleUsed[id] && get_user_team(id) == 1)
        {
        give_item(id, "weapon_deagle");
        cs_set_weapon_ammo(find_ent_by_owner(1, "weapon_deagle", id), 1);
        DeagleUsed[id] = true;
        new deaglename[42];
        get_user_name(id, deaglename, 32);
        set_hudmessage(255, 255, 255, -1.0, -1.0, 0, 6.0, 4.0);
        show_hudmessage(0, "Be careful CT! %s has a Deagle!", deaglename);
    }
}
actionDamage(id)
{
    if (halflife_time() >= gfNextDamageTime[id])
    {
        if (get_user_health(id) > 0)
        {
            new Float:amount = get_cvar_float("bm_damageamount");
            fakedamage(id, "damage block", amount, DMG_CRUSH);
        }
 
        gfNextDamageTime[id] = halflife_time() + 0.5;
    }
}

This is what we made BM_DEAGLE refer to when the player steps on the block specified. Most of this is self explanatory, and you may change to fit your needs. This will give the player a deagle with one bullet to use.

Step 12

Code: Select all

                        case 'A': createBlock(0, BM_PLATFORM, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'B': createBlock(0, BM_BHOP, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'C': createBlock(0, BM_DAMAGE, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'D': createBlock(0, BM_HEALER, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'E': createBlock(0, BM_NOFALLDAMAGE, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'F': createBlock(0, BM_ICE, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'G': createBlock(0, BM_TRAMPOLINE, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'H': createBlock(0, BM_SPEEDBOOST, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'I': createBlock(0, BM_INVINCIBILITY, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'J': createBlock(0, BM_STEALTH, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'K': createBlock(0, BM_DEATH, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'L': createBlock(0, BM_NUKE, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'M': createBlock(0, BM_CAMOUFLAGE, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'N': createBlock(0, BM_LOWGRAVITY, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'O': createBlock(0, BM_FIRE, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'P': createBlock(0, BM_SLAP, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'Q': createBlock(0, BM_RANDOM, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'R': createBlock(0, BM_HONEY, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'S': createBlock(0, BM_BARRIER_CT, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'T': createBlock(0, BM_BARRIER_T, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'U': createBlock(0, BM_BOOTSOFSPEED, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'V': createBlock(0, BM_GLASS, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'W': createBlock(0, BM_BHOP_NOSLOW, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'X': createBlock(0, BM_AUTO_BHOP, vVec1, axis, size);
                        case 'Y': createBlock(0, BM_DEAGLE, vVec1, axis, size);

Refer to Step 4 and place in the order that you've organized your blocks. This tells the server what block to create when you choose the selected item in the menu.

Other actions for more blocks.

Awp:

Code: Select all

actionAwp(id)
{
    if (is_user_alive(id) && !AwpUsed[id] && get_user_team(id) == 1)
        {
        give_item(id, "weapon_awp");
        cs_set_weapon_ammo(find_ent_by_owner(1, "weapon_awp", id), 1);
        AwpUsed[id] = true;
        new awpname[42];
        get_user_name(id, awpname, 32);
        set_hudmessage(255, 255, 255, -1.0, -1.0, 0, 6.0, 4.0);

        gfFrostNextUse[id] = fTime + get_cvar_float("bm_frostgrenadecooldown");
 
        //setup hud message to show who nuked what team
        set_hudmessage(255, 255, 0, -1.0, 0.35, 0, 6.0, 10.0, 1.0, 1.0);
 
    }
    else
    {
        set_hudmessage(gHudRed, gHudGreen, gHudBlue, gfTextX, gfTextY, gHudEffects, gfHudFxTime, gfHudHoldTime, gfHudFadeInTime, gfHudFadeOutTime, gHudChannel);
        show_hudmessage(id, "FROSTNADE BLOCK NEXT USE AFTER 1 ROUND", gfFrostNextUse[id] - fTime);
    }
}

Flash Grenade:

Code: Select all

        gfFlashNextUse[id] = fTime + get_cvar_float("bm_flashgrenadecooldown");
 
        //setup hud message to show who nuked what team
        set_hudmessage(255, 255, 0, -1.0, 0.35, 0, 6.0, 10.0, 1.0, 1.0);
 
    }
    else
