bot_sounds.cpp

there's 3 distinctive lines that's being used over n over

i was wondering if u put it into a method that gets called instead

it would be neater code.. but will it slow\use more resources (ie memory\cpu)?

Re: bot_sounds.cpp

yea but i think for 2 different if's it won't be called..
so i think he was trying to save cpu usage at the expense of the dll's size.

...or he was just lazy and did a lot of CTRL-C CTRL-V :)

Re: bot_sounds.cpp

so the bot_sounds.cpp can be reduced file size alot by adding a method similar to this:

Code:

  void SoundMethod(boolean a,float b, float c, boolean d)

   {

             if(a){

                     if ((iIndex < 0) || (iIndex >= gpGlobals->maxClients))

                          iIndex = UTIL_GetNearestPlayerIndex (VecBModelOrigin (pEdict));

             }

                    clients[iIndex].fHearingDistance = b * fVolume;

                    clients[iIndex].fTimeSoundLasting = gpGlobals->time + c;

                   if(d)

                          clients[iIndex].vecSoundPosition = pEdict->v.origin;

                     else

                             clients[iIndex].vecSoundPosition = vecPosition;

   }

and having 1 method call at each place instead of 3-5 lines?

but will it be efficient??

Re: bot_sounds.cpp

actually it'll be very very very slightly less efficient but it'll save space in the dll...
at least thats what i think it'll do..

btw...
more descriptive names...
and I don't see iIndex or fVolume or pEdict or vecPosition defined anywhere in that scope...

Re: bot_sounds.cpp

hmm
I dunno of any way to teach you what a scope is but to show you...

Code:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;



namespace blue

{

   int x = 3;

}



int x = 2;



int main ()

{

   int x = 0;

   {

      int x = 1;

      cout << "This is the value of x: " << x << endl;

      cout << "No.. this is.... " << blue::x << endl;

      cout << "Geez idiots this is.. " << ::x << endl;

   }

   cout << "You're all wrong.. this is.. " << x << endl;

   return (0);

}

well thats a little scope thingy...

Re: bot_sounds.cpp

ahhhh...u mean class.......sorry as i said i've only learnt a little java...and c\c++ is like going to lower langs..

basically this is a method thats within the bot_sounds.cpp if u have a look u'll see that these 5 lines are often used...so to save space one can replace the 3-5 lines with just 1 method call...

i'll try do it and put it up....

Re: bot_sounds.cpp

I say we go and add more hearable sounds...
it seems to be like it's missing some useful sounds..
