[CS:GO] Prevent team switch event

[battleweaver]

Syntax: Select all

from events.hooks import PreEvent, EventAction
from messages import SayText2
from players._base import Player
from players.helpers import index_from_userid

@PreEvent('player_team')
def on_player_team(event):
    player = Player(index_from_userid(event['userid']))
    SayText2('Detect player change team').send(player.index)
    if event['isbot'] or event['disconnect']:
        SayText2('Player is bot or disconnecting.').send(player.index)
        return
    if event['oldteam'] in [2, 3] and event['team'] in [2, 3]:
        SayText2('Avoid changing team please.').send(player.index)
        return EventAction.BLOCK

When I as a player press default "m", I change team. I get 'Avoid changing team please.' message in chat and team change event is commited. "teamchange_pending" and "switch_team" events are not triggered during process.

Is that a snippet for others to use or a question? And what exactly do you want to do? Block the player_team event or really block team changes? If it's the latter, you can use a ClientCommandFilter.

The snippet intends to show that I could not prevent the event of team switching.
Do you suggest filtering "teammenu" through ClientCommandFilter?

[Ayuto]

Well, the event is blocked, but that doesn't change the actual team change. To do so you need to block the client commands jointeam and joinclass.

Why do you recommend using ClientCommandFilter instead ClientCommand decorator?

Both should works, but using a filter would be the best approach here since the goal is to filter the command and not register a callback for it. I would say use a filter when you want to block existing commands, and use a command when you want to create a new command.

from commands.client import ClientCommandFilter
from players.entity import Player 

@ClientCommandFilter
def client_command_filter(command, index):

    # Get the player entity
    player = Player(index)

    # Block 'jointeam'
    if commmand[0] == 'jointeam':

        # Get the team the player wants to join
        team_choice = command[1]
        
        if player.team in [2,3] and team_choice in ['2', '3']:
            return False

[Ayuto]

I think you meant team_choice = int(command[1]) instead of team_choice = int(client_command[1]). However, I would simply compare it to strings instead of converting it to an integer, because otherwise a player could provoke an error using the client console. It wouldn't do any harm, but could be prevented.

Very true. Thanks!
