Half-Life 2: Deathmatch/Scripting/Game Events

← VScript

This article lists game events in Half-Life 2: Deathmatch, in addition to the base game events. These were retrieved from modevents.res in the resource folder.

Warning:Some events have parameter 'class' which cannot be accessed with dot syntax, i.e. params.class, as class is a reserved word in Squirrel. Instead, use string indexing like so: params["class"]

Tip:To see what events fire during the game, download this script (right click and Save Page), place it into your scripts/vscripts/ folder and run script_execute showevents in console.

Todo: Distinguish which events are clientside and/or serverside
