SetObserverTarget function missing
Lua has everything for enabling Observer mode for player, but it dont has a function SetObserverTarget. That's kinda bad.
@Dim1xs @GuestSneezeOSDev That's odd that we never implemented this. Looks like it's from the client-side CBasePlayer class?
@andrewmcwatters I think you could, i found that function in player.h and in c_baseplayer.h, and i found also that SetBodygroup for Server-side of Lua CBaseAnimating is missing too.
@GuestSneezeOSDev I'd like to, too, but there's a number of minutiae that need to be addressed. It's on my backlog. That codebase evolved from 2006 -> 2007 -> 2013, so there's some large scale manual diff review that needs to go on.
Luckily, we mostly wrapped our diffs around HL2SB #ifdefs to make these ports overtime easy to handle, but it's still a large chore. And we never really adopted VPC, having a single target we were allowed to publish to since we weren't licensees. We simply patched the built project files and pushed them up over the years.
@GuestSneezeOSDev In theory, you should be able to check out a fresh copy of 2013, literally drop hl2sb-src on top of it, and see what changes there are wrapped in HL2SB ifdefs.
@GuestSneezeOSDev I don't think too much really changes between them. It's really the engine itself, iirc. I'm not sure how much of the newer engine features we expose to Lua between the engine branches.
