c++ [SOLVED] How to find out if I have an NPC on lasso? [C++ Scripting]

[HughJanus 244]

Hey guys,

 

I want to disarm NPCs when I got them lasso-ed automatically, but I havent found out yet how to determine wheter I got an NPC lasso-ed or not.

Can anyone give some advice?

Perhaps you can check for an animation on either the NPC or the player to see at what stage the lasso-ing is.

Are animation names or IDs known yet? Cant seem to find them.

Or was this just a general hint?

 

Edit:

I found a mod online which uses C# code to do something similar (source: https://www.nexusmods.com/reddeadredemption2/mods/155)

I adapted the code a little and used the following:

Player player = PLAYER::PLAYER_ID();
Ped playerPed = PLAYER::PLAYER_PED_ID();
Entity target = playerPed;
Hash lassoHash = GAMEPLAY::GET_HASH_KEY("WEAPON_LASSO");

if (WEAPON::HAS_PED_GOT_WEAPON(playerPed, lassoHash, 0, 0))
{
	Hash lassoHash2;
	if (WEAPON::GET_CURRENT_PED_WEAPON(playerPed, &lassoHash2, 1, 0, false))
	{
		if (lassoHash == lassoHash2)
		{
			if (target != playerPed)
			{
				//DO SOMETHING WITH LASSO-ED PED
			}
			if (PED::IS_PED_SHOOTING(playerPed))
			{
				Entity playerTarget;
				if (PLAYER::GET_ENTITY_PLAYER_IS_FREE_AIMING_AT(player, &playerTarget))
				{
					target = playerTarget;
				}
			}
		}
	}
}
