Hello,
How can I get custom variable from client console in connect. I mean next:
In client console I am typing:
Code: Select all
name test1; setinfo var1 test2; connect 111.111.111.111I want to get name and var1 variables in player_connect event. How can I get them?
Syntax: Select all
from events import Event
@Event
def player_connect(game_event):
pass

Syntax: Select all
from engines.server import engine_server
from events import Event
@Event
def player_connect(game_event):
name = game_event.get_string('name')
index = game_event.get_int('index')
var1 = engine_server.get_client_convar_value(index, 'var1')
You can also get 'name' using engine_server.get_client_convar_value, but I don't think that matters, as 'name' is an event variable in player_connect.

Hmm, var1 is printing empty string but index = 0

Yeah, seems that player_connect is too early. I tried using the listeners.ClientConnect decorator, but I am receiving a to_python error with that, currently. Once we have that fixed, that will likely be the route you would want to take. For now, you will have to use either player_spawn (check for team=0) or player_activate.

Fixed the error.
https://github.com/Source-Python-Dev-Team/Source.Python/commit/cabf965e68bd69f5d1fd4ca262d04d8039cf2221Example:
Syntax: Select all
from listeners import ClientConnect
@ClientConnect
def on_client_connect(allow_connect_ptr, player_index, player_name, ip_port,
reject_msg_ptr, max_reject_length):
# Disallow every connection
allow_connect_ptr.set_bool(False)
reject_msg_ptr.set_string_array('You shall not pass'[:max_reject_length])

I tried to use your code in an event player_activate but the same result.

If you mean that you just changed player_connect to player_activate, of course that wouldn't work. There is no event variable 'index' in that event. You need to get the index via the userid event variable with index_from_userid. Also, if you build a new build yourself with Ayuto's fix, you can use the ClientConnect listener.

Why would that be preferred to player_activate? It doesn't get called on a map change and has different arguments? (And you can return False to disallow a player to join!? That's nice.)

It depends on what you need to do. ClientConnect, as Ayuto mentioned, allows you to disallow the player from joining.

The same:
Syntax: Select all
@Event
def player_activate(game_event):
userid = game_event.get_int('userid')
index = index_from_userid(userid)
name = game_event.get_string('name')
print("gameevent_name: %s" % name) # Empty
name = engine_server.get_client_convar_value(index, 'name')
print("convar_name: %s" % name) # Steam account
var1 = engine_server.get_client_convar_value(index, 'var1')
print("var1: %s" % var1) # Empty

player_activate doesn't have a "name" variable.
Your last line contains an error.

I mean I can't get var1 variable. Please help me to get it.

Strange, it worked for me when I tested last night, as did player_spawn.

Same, just tested the exact same code you gave on CS:S and CS:GO - works on both game.

If I connect through steam the name is not override. Is it normal case?

"name" is set to the name you use in Steam and you can't change this variable. Did you use a cracked game previously?

I have never used the cracked version before. The idea is to change nick after player activated. Is it possible?

No, you can only change your name via Steam. It has been this way for a very long time.
