Well,I want to make a death-zone where player(s) would die when they get within a trigger volume.

(script continuous death-zone)
(sleep_until (or 1)
(if
(=
(volume_test_objects death-zone (players) true)
(damage_object weapons\rocket launcher\nuke player0)

v2:

(global short plyrnum 0)

(script continuous death-zone)
(sleep_until (or 1)
(if
(or
(volume_test_object death-zone
(unit
(list_get
(players) plyrnum)))
(unit_kill
(unit
(list_get
(players) plyrnum)))




Does that work?

( script continuous kill_box_1
		( sleep_until ( volume_test_objects killb1 ( players )) 15)
			( damage_object "effects\damage effects\guaranteed plummet to untimely death" ( unit ( list_get ( players ) 0 ))) 	
)

If this is for SP then it should work.

I would use this script:

(script continuous deathzone
(begin
(if (= (volume_test_object trigvol (list_get (players) 0)) true)
(begin
(damage_object "damage_effect_here" (list_get (players) 0))
(sleep 50)
)
)
)
)

You have to do it for each player though 0-15.
You could even put warnings in before it kills you with:

(script continuous deathzone
(begin
(if (= (volume_test_object trigvol (list_get (players) 0)) true)
(begin
(sv_say "warning you are leaving the battlefield!"
(sleep 500)
(damage_object "damage_effect_here" (list_get (players) 0))
(sleep 50)
)
)
)
)

Although that will say it to everyone I dont know if there is a way to say it to just the one player.

Is there a way to display the name of the player?

You can't really find out the local player on stock HCE. You'd basically want to have everyone as deathless if you wanted to correctly track it. With OS, you can get the current player number. Anyways, even if you knew the correct player number, at that point you'd want a cutscene title since sv_say can only be preformed on the host and would display to everyone.


No, sv_players is the closest you can get, but it doesn't return anything, nor allow you to put in an index.



Anyways, the script jawa posted, it warns them, but then it damages them regardless of whether they heed the warning or not. You should check if they are still out there.. but then there comes the problem, if the player numbers shifted. Someone could stay out there for ever if the numbers keep shifting. Anyways, I would recommend a constant and slow damage. it should be enough for them to realize they don't want to stay in wherever very long.

(global short number 0)
(script static unit player (unit (list_get (players) number)))
(script continuous kill_volumes
  (if (volume_test_object <trigger_volume> (player)) (damage_object <damage> (player)))
  ;;Repeat above if statement for however many volumes you need, right here.
  (if (< number 15) (set number (+ number 1)) (set number 0))
)

the 'damage' is the tag location of a damage effect, so a pistol bullet would be "weapons\pistol\bullet" since bullet.damage_effect resides there. Just make it a low amount of damage if you want them to have a chance to turn back alive. If its a death pit, then just make it instant kill by replacing the damage_object with (unit_kill (player))
