Cancel GameEvent

[necavi]

Is there currently a way to cancel/block/stop broadcast on a game event?

Thanks! I can't believe I failed at searching that much.

I just now realized that those 2 scripts won't fully work with the newest version of SP. There have been some name changes since then. GameEventManager has been changed to game_event_manager. Also, both Argument and Return have been combined into DataType. So, it would now look more like this:

Syntax: Select all

from memory import get_object_pointer
from memory import make_object
from memory import Convention
from memory import DataType
from events import GameEvent
from events.manager import game_event_manager
from memory.hooks import PreHook
from core import PLATFORM

FIRE_EVENT_FUNC = get_object_pointer(
    game_event_manager).make_virtual_function(
    7 if PLATFORM == 'windows' else 8,
    Convention.THISCALL,
    (DataType.POINTER, DataType.POINTER, DataType.BOOL),
    DataType.VOID
)

@PreHook(FIRE_EVENT_FUNC)
def pre_fire_event(arguments):
    game_event = make_object(GameEvent, arguments[1])
    if game_event.get_name() == 'player_death':
        arguments[2] = True
